User reviews

No save to photos or share button on iPad Pro

I only see the use option, then photo appears with no other option to do anything with it on iPad Pro. Useless.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for the review. This issue should be fixed with v1.2.

Loop Live Photo into a Video for Insta!!

EXACTLY what I was looking for! A loop won’t upload as a looped video to Instagram, this will. Thank you!

It just repeats it over & over

A very simple algorithms. It already exists in the Photos app as Bounce feature.
