## What is Frame Grab?

Frame Grab makes it easy to capture and share any moment from videos stored on your device as still images in JPEG format. It supports not only videos stored in the Photos app, but also those in the Music, Podcasts, and TV apps, as long as they are downloaded to your device.

◇◇◇ How to Use ◇◇◇
◆When you launch the app, a list of video categories appears: Photos, Live Photos, Music Videos, Home Videos, Movies, TV Shows, and Podcasts.
◆Tap a category to view its videos, then tap a video to open the player view.
◆Move the playhead to the desired frame. Use the buttons on either side of the play button to step forward or backward one frame at a time.
◆Save Option 1:
Tap the Share button to save the displayed frame to the Photos app, or share it with other apps and services.
◆Save Option 2:
Tap the gray circle button to temporarily save the displayed frame to the Queue. Repeat this for other frames as needed. When you’re ready, tap the red badge showing the number of queued items to open the Queue and save multiple frames at once to the Photos app, or share them with other apps and services.

### 5/5 — Fabulous tool

*2026-07-15*

This tool is super simple, but has plenty of useful features. I particularly like being able to queue up multiple grabs, review them, select the ones to trash and the save the acceptable ones. If I could pay a one time purchase, I would. I have no intention of using Apple’s implementation in iOS 27. This app is my go to and will remain so.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2026-02-15*

Does the job! For DSLR video or iPhone. Can’t find out how to pay to remove ads.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-01-31*

Does exactly as you expect and well designed interface that is fast to pick up and use. 
Really appreciate the ability to turn on or off the date time encoding as I can ensure the photo line up with my videos or get posted to the end of the library. Thank you to the developers!

### 5/5 — Slow to load videos

*2025-12-07*

Pretty slow to load videos. I’m using ip pro max 14. 1TB Ios26.1. Got tons of videos. It takes 10 sec at least to load.

### 5/5 — 神としか言いようがない

*2025-09-12, version 2.63*

一コマづつ確認できるのでベストな一枚が切り出せます。
動作もとても軽いです。
iOS26でも引き続き対応よろしくお願い致します。
有料で広告削除ができればより有難いので、ご検討頂ければ幸いです。

### 5/5 — ありがとう

*2025-08-30, version 2.63*

とても使いやすいです！
重宝しています🙏

### 5/5 — Perfect App

*2025-06-20*

Thank you so much for making this app. It’s clean, simple, easy to use. I love it!

### 3/5 — Just one fatal flaw…

*2025-04-30*

The app freezes on launch on phones with huge photo libraries (huge = 100k+ items)

### 5/5 — Does the job!

*2025-03-07*

Thanks for making this app available for free. (We all hate subscriptions) I just want something for occasional use, and this works perfectly! 5 stars!

### 5/5 — Best of breed

*2024-12-21*

Elegant interface, can swipe fast or slow, even frame by frame, and the ability to access home movies (not just the photos library) make this a standout app. I wish it had an ad free option. Would be well worth paying for.
