RhythmReel is an iPhone app that makes your videos and Live Photos move to music. When the beat drops, your video jumps forward. When it quiets, it eases back. Pick any clip from your camera roll or record a short video in the app. Play music out loud through your speakers and the microphone picks it up automatically. Or import an audio file directly. Short clips work especially well. Live Photos are perfect. Free to download. A one-time purchase removes the watermark and unlocks high-resolution export.
