Make GIF and Movie from your Live Photos. Lively lets you make GIF and Movie from Live Photos at ease. You can now share your Live Photos with your friends on iMessage, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, Slack, Tumblr and more. Lively gives you full control of your GIFs with extensive editing features: trim, play backward, auto reverse and speed control. GIF size too big? You can make it smaller too. Last by not least, full 3D Touch support. Gotta press that screen. Oh, you can pick a single frame from the video part to save. Your child moves right the moment you take the shot? No worry, just grab the right frame from the video. All that, with correct metadata as the original Live Photo. Lively lets you export for free with a watermark. A single in-app purchase allows you to remove the watermark. Important: You need an iPhone 6S/6S Plus or above to capture Live Photos. You can still use the app on older iPhone, just get your friends to send you one via iMessage.
Great except for 1 issue
Had no problems with this app for years. However I got a new phone with iOS 16. Installed the app. Now inside the app the GIF preview only plays once. Doesn’t matter if Reverse or Back-And-Forth is checked off — it plays the preview once, then plays again and stops 1/4 the way through it. Trimming the GIF is still no issue, and it’ll play it fine while scrubbing, but still won’t play a whole preview again.
No longer updated and doesn’t work with current IOS
App just shows a blank screen until in crashes. Looks like no updates in over a year.
Love the idea and simplicity but NEEDS updates bad
Love this idea I even purchased to remove the watermark but then of course I started having major issues. Long lags when loading photos. Choosing photos and then saying “oops! error. please try again” but as many times as i try it doesn’t work. Selecting photos is also super buggy. Saw the last update was a year ago and wish I had seen that before buying to remove the watermark.
Export is not as advertised
Why do you state that one is able to export the gif or movie to FB, Instagram, etc., when, in fact, it does not go thru as a gif or movie to these sites or any type of sharing site? Love the pics it makes, but they are useless if you can’t share them.
Bad app
It doesn’t give me all my pictures that I selected access to all photos. It’s a waste of time. It’s not good. Don’t get this app you will be disappointed in the lack of work that this creator made.
Sound Please
I would like it to have the option to keep the original sound as in the moment is fully realized with sound. Like the app but just wanted to make this request.
Doesn’t export anywhere
Works well, but gifs and movie output wont export to google drive, email, or Facebook, unless I’m missing something. No way to ask the developers.
