Unable to access library

The updated app now tells me that I don’t have any live photos and won’t let me bypass the message to access my photo library in the app, but I know for certain that I have live photos. 😣

Makes gifs, but not high quality

It makes gifs so it’s fun. They are NOT high quality though. I’d pay $5 if they had a high def option.

It works, very simply; however…

Result is extremely low-resolution and choppy.
