Turn favorite moments into Live Pictures, personal wallpapers and GIFs with XYZMaker. VIDEO TO LIVE PICTURES Turn existing or edited videos into Live Pictures, with sound when the source includes audio. Trim the scene you want to keep. Standard access supports up to 10 seconds; Pro supports up to 30 seconds. PERSONAL WALLPAPERS Create Live Picture wallpaper from your own clips. Compatibility and animation depend on your iPhone, iOS version and media. The full Live Picture duration is not the Lock Screen animation duration. GIF MAKER Create GIFs for chats, reactions and sharing. Adjust dimensions, frame rate and other settings to balance quality, motion and file size. For WeChat custom stickers, adjust your export to meet WeChat's current requirements; a particular file size does not guarantee acceptance. To make a GIF from a Live Picture, convert it to video first, then use video-to-GIF conversion. CHANGE THE COVER Choose a different cover for a Live Picture so it looks the way you want when still. ADD QR CODES Add a QR image or generate one from text to include a personal link or other information in a Live Picture. Check readability before sharing. Lock Screen display depends on system support. CONVERT TO VIDEO Turn GIFs and Live Pictures into videos for further editing or sharing. For services such as WeChat Moments that accept video, convert a GIF to video before posting. SHARE AND RESTORE LMR Save Live Pictures as LMR files for transfer through compatible messaging apps, cloud storage, AirDrop or computer file sharing. Recipients can import and restore them using XYZMaker, then save the result to Photos. Import through the system share menu or the app's LMR tools. Find stored LMR files in XYZMaker or Apple's Files app. Messaging apps transfer LMR as a file; they do not play it directly as a Live Picture. PANORAMIC PHOTOS Explore panoramic scenes and look around their details. Pro members can import their own panoramic photos. BATCH TOOLS AND STORAGE Use Pro batch conversion to process multiple files, set duration limits for supported tasks, follow progress and cancel when needed. Manage creations with batch deletion or delete-all options. Clear cache manually or schedule cleanup while the app is open and idle, keeping saved creations. LOCAL CONVERSION Media conversion happens on your device without uploading your photos or videos for conversion. Declining optional usage analytics does not affect conversion features. COMPATIBILITY Some formats or high-frame-rate files may not convert. Results depend on source media and device capabilities. Keep important originals and check exports before deleting them.
