Updated, same result. Killed app, same result. On iPhone XS. ### 4/5 — Frag *2019-11-12, version 3.3.1* I am excited with this app and happy that I can turn Live Photo’s to movie play. However, there are still bug fixes necessary to make this app run a bit better. For instance what I am experiencing when I convert a live phone and save to another place and try to deleted from App LP, it does not allow me too. Please try and correct this as this app is great. More happy when that is fixed. Good job! 5 star for me once fix is done! Thanks! ### 3/5 — very useful *2019-10-31, version 3.3.0* Thanks to developer for me it is very useful app to convert live photos to still however it would have been more useful if I could batch convert live to still n delete live at the same time saving space 😊 ### 1/5 — Garbage *2019-10-19, version 3.3.0* It has no options to specify video quality and length. I exported a loop style live iphone photo to video. The resulting video duration was 1 second and the quality horrible. Another app called Lively converted the same photo to a 3 second video with much better quality. Am i missing something? I did not pay for the add free option. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother! *2019-10-03, version 3.3.0* After being treated to stupid, obnoxious, full-page ad after ad, eventually my Live Photo saved to my camera roll as a “loop” (I requested “video”). However, what’s the point, as recent iOS does this automatically?! ### 3/5 — Unusable on iOS 13.1 *2019-09-26, version 3.2.2* The app works perfectly as advertised on iOS 12 but after updating to iOS 13.1, the app freezes on photo selection making it completely unusable. Please update the perfectly working app! ### 2/5 — Broken on iOS 13 *2019-09-24, version 3.2.2* The app freezes on photo selection on iOS 13.1 ### 1/5 — Didn’t work! *2019-09-24, version 3.2.2* Kept crashing every time I tried to convert something. Sad. ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2019-09-22, version 3.2.2* It is freezing on iPhone XR and iOS 13. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Locks up on iPhone 11 Pro with iOS 13 *2019-09-22, version 3.2.2* I had high hopes for this app, but it is not usable. It started to display the photos after I gave it permission to them. Then it locked up when I selected one. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Gif *2026-02-15, version 3.4.0* The gif part does not work ### 1/5 — Very limited *2023-11-26, version 3.4.0* Unfortunately it doesn't save any of the live photo affects such as loop. Instead it just saves the original video which can actually be found in the raw files that photo uses. ### 1/5 — Not showing all photos *2022-06-03, version 3.3.1* Not all of my photos are showing up in the app, it only displays about half of them! ### 1/5 — Steals data *2021-01-17, version 3.3.1* Whenever I open the app I get a pop up saying LP pasted my copied link (I.e. “LP pasted from Amazon”) and I’m not pasting that link anywhere. Every time I open the app, it collects whatever is in your clipboard (whatever you copy: links, emails, etc). App hasn’t been updated since last year before Apple added the “pasted from” feature, so I’m not trusting this app anymore, it works as intended but I don’t feel like having some random app copy my clipboard ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-01-14, version 3.3.1* Just re-saves the Live Photo as a duplicate ### 1/5 — App copied info from banking app *2020-12-25, version 3.3.1* Not sure if it’s because it hasn’t been updated in awhile, but iOS 14 notifies me that this app copied info from my banking app. Promptly deleted this app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-07-28, version 3.3.1* I want to love it. Batch live photo conversion to video?! YES PLEASE!! But I selected a batch to convert, app said they saved to video, checked my camera roll and out of 25ish selected it saved about 10 and then had the same 1 photo saved over and over and over and over. The rest didn’t convert or got overridden or ?? Definitely has some bugs. Sad. ### 1/5 — doesn’t work *2020-04-07, version 3.3.1* does not save it as a video, just another live photo on loop. so dumb. ### 1/5 — Awful *2020-04-04, version 3.3.1* Does not work at all. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — ios 13.2.3 *2019-11-19, version 3.3.1* app no longer works now that i’ve updated to ios 13.2.3 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5/5 *2023-07-07, version 3.4.0* Does exactly what I wanted this is great ### 5/5 — It just works! *2023-05-25, version 3.4.0* Easy to use , easy to export and very quick. I love it! ### 5/5 — fantastic app *2023-03-06, version 3.4.0* no setup. it was so intuitive, quick and easy and got exactly what i needed done. ### 5/5 — Perfect for migrating Live Photos to clouds *2023-01-12, version 3.4.0* Any cloud other than iCloud Drive doesn’t accept Live Photos, it just turns them into normal still photos. This app made it so easy to convert all my live photos to quick videos so that I could keep them in full when I backed up. If you are low on phone storage because of photos, use this app. ### 5/5 — Met all my expectations! *2021-07-21, version 3.3.1* This is honestly the best app I have downloaded regarding anything photo related! I was a bit worried the app wouldn’t work well because i haven’t seen other apps similar to this but it met all my expectations! I’m a person who typically takes photos with the live mode on and I get a beautiful moment or moments but the final picture looks to be super low quality :( but with this app I can save the photo as a video and as an outcome the quality looks better and still captures different movements 🙇🏻‍♀️🥸👍 10/10 would definitely recommend : )💕 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-04-03, version 3.3.1* Can’t fault this app, really helped me out 😄 ### 5/5 — Great *2019-09-27, version 3.2.3* ! Would love tompay to remove ads ### 5/5 — awesome *2019-09-22, version 3.2.2* please update for ios13,it doesn't work anymore ### 5/5 — Expected a catch *2019-04-12, version 3.2.2* Literally the best app for making Live Photo’s into videos! I expected some “premium version” or to have to pay after a few but no it’s just free and great. Download this one and don’t waste your time on others with in app purchases! ### 5/5 — So good that I do not even care that there is no iPad-specific version *2019-01-06, version 3.0.5* Not only is it free but it also lets you pick and preview. A few simple options are all I really want in a converter app and this gives them perfectly. Sometimes I do not care about perfect and lossless quality... and I can choose whether to have it or not. Most of the time I just want a nice 1Mb gif and I can actually make my own decision on whether I prefer smoother frames or crisper images.
