66 LOOKS FOR LIVE PHOTO CAPTURE Shoot with camera styles, classic film, film processes, retro digital, optical and creative looks. Original and five classic film looks are free. One Lifetime Unlock includes all 66 graded effects. Capture Live Photos from 1 to 30 seconds. Press and hold for motion and sound. Release for a detailed still. Try up to 5 seconds free.

Press and hold to replay movement and sound. Release to see the still. A CAMERA FOR LONGER LIVE PHOTOS Start in the camera, set your duration, and shoot. There is no need to manually record a separate video and import it into a converter. LivePlus saves the result as a Live Photo. FRAME IT YOUR WAY Choose 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 or 1:1. Switch supported lenses and focal lengths, tap to focus, adjust exposure and set selfie mirroring. REFINE IT AFTER CAPTURE Trim the start and end, choose a new key photo, adjust the original sound or mute it. Save edits as a new copy while keeping the original in Photos. When you choose a video frame as a new key photo, its detail depends on the motion resolution. KEEP IT IN YOUR PHOTOS LIBRARY Capture, creation and editing happen on your device. LivePlus saves to the Photos app and does not upload your photos or videos to developer servers. No account. No ads. TRY FREE. UNLOCK ONCE. Capture Live Photos up to 5 seconds for free. A one-time Lifetime Unlock adds all 66 graded effects, longer durations up to 30 seconds, and Live Photo video HDR. No subscription. Restore your purchase with the same Apple Account. CAPABILITY NOTES Maximum resolution, HDR, frame rate and still-photo megapixels depend on your iPhone, lens, aspect ratio and settings. Maximum specifications are not all available together. 24MP capture uses the full 4:3 aspect ratio. Higher settings and longer captures need more processing time and storage. Recording starts when you press the shutter. Playback and sharing in other apps depend on their support. Open the camera. Keep more of the moment.
