How to Make Videos Into Live Photos on iPhone
Have you ever wished that your favorite videos could be turned into live photos on your iPhone? Well, you’re in luck because it’s totally possible! In this article, we’ll guide you through the process of turning any video clip on your iPhone into a live photo that you can use as your animated wallpaper or share with your friends.
Step 1: Pick the Right Video
The very first thing you need to do is select a video that you want to turn into a live photo. It should be a clip that you really love and want to watch over and over again. Keep in mind, the shorter the clip, the better. The longer the video, the more difficult it will be to capture the perfect moment for your live photo.
Step 2: Open the Photos app
Now that you’ve picked your video clip, all you need to do is open the Photos app on your iPhone. Find the video that you want to turn into a live photo version and tap on it to open it.
Step 3: Edit Your Video Clip
This step is the most important part of the process. You need to edit your video clip to select the perfect moment that you want to use for your live photo. To do this, tap on the “Edit” button at the top right corner of the screen.
You’ll see a timeline of your video clip at the bottom of the screen. Drag the slider to the point in the video where you want the live photo to start and stop. The ideal length for a live photo is between 1.5 and 3 seconds. When you find the right moment, tap on “Done” at the top right corner of the screen.
Step 4: Turn Your Video into a Live Photo
Now that you’ve selected the perfect moment for your live photo, it’s time to turn it into one. Tap the “Live Photo” button at the bottom center of the screen. This will turn your video clip into a live photo.
Step 5: Save Your Live Photo
Once you’ve turned your video clip into a live photo, you need to save it to your iPhone. Tap on “Done” at the top right corner of the screen, and then tap on “Save as New Video”. Your live photo will now be saved to your Camera Roll.
Step 6: Set Your Live Photo as Your Wallpaper
Now that you’ve saved your live photo, it’s time to set it as your wallpaper. Go to “Settings” on your iPhone, tap on “Wallpaper”, and then select “Choose a New Wallpaper”.
Choose the live photo that you’ve just created from your Camera Roll. Make sure to switch on the “Live Photo” option at the bottom of the screen. Tap “Set” to set the live photo as your wallpaper.
That’s it! You’ve now successfully turned a video clip into a live photo on your iPhone. You can either use it as your animated wallpaper or share it with your friends. With this simple trick, you can create unique and personalized live photos that you’ll enjoy watching again and again.
