Open toolImportant: browser & iPhone limits
- Live Photo → GIF/Video: browsers cannot read a native iPhone Live Photo from the Photos picker—you usually get only the still image, not the MOV track.
- For conversion tools, use .livp, paired HEIC/JPG + MOV, or MOV from Mac Photos export or the Files app.
- GIF/Video/Image → Live Photo: upload works from phone galleries, but the ZIP must be imported to iPhone via AirDrop, Mac Photos, or a third-party app.
- Web apps cannot write Live Photos directly into the iOS camera roll.
- All tools load FFmpeg locally (~25MB on first use). Older phones may need more time.
- See each tool page for detailed upload and import steps.
How Live Photo Center works

Live Photo Center FAQ
- What is a Live Photo?
- A Live Photo pairs a still image (HEIC/JPG) with a short video clip (MOV). iPhone captures both together; our tools split or rebuild that pair.
- Do you upload my files?
- No. Conversion runs locally in your browser with FFmpeg WebAssembly. Files never leave your device.
- Which formats are supported?
- Input: .livp, HEIC+MOV pairs, MOV, MP4, GIF. Output: GIF, animated WebP, MP4, MOV, WEBM, and Live Photo ZIP.
- Will Live Photos work on my iPhone after conversion?
- GIF→Live Photo and Video→Live Photo export a ZIP with matching JPG+MOV and Apple content identifiers. Import via Files or AirDrop to Photos.
- Can I upload a Live Photo straight from iPhone Photos?
- Usually no for Live Photo → GIF/Video—the Photos picker gives only the still frame. Export .livp or HEIC+MOV first, or use GIF/Video/Image → Live Photo tools when you only have those sources.
- How do I import a Live Photo ZIP back to iPhone?
- Download the ZIP, unzip JPG+MOV, then AirDrop to Mac and import via Photos, or use a third-party Live Photo app. Browsers cannot save directly into the camera roll.
