Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about converting videos to Live Photos
Why do I need LivePix?
The web editor handles trimming and framing, but iOS only recognises Live Photos that are packaged on-device. LivePix completes the final export with high-quality output, cropping, and image enhancement. You import the downloaded clip manually — the web does not transfer files automatically.
How do I import the clip into LivePix?
1. Finish trimming on the left panel and click “Convert to Short Video”. 2. When download is ready, use the Download Video button above the LivePix guide. 3. Tap “Continue in LivePix” or scan the QR code, then open LivePix ▸ Import, pick the exported clip, and save it as a Live Photo.
What is a Live Photo?
A Live Photo is a format introduced by Apple that captures a short video along with a still image. When viewed, Live Photos show a brief animation with sound, bringing the moment to life.
What video formats can I convert to Live Photo?
Our converter supports most popular video formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, and more. If you have a different format, you can still try uploading it as our converter may support it.
How long can my video be?
Live Photos typically contain 1.5 seconds of video before and after the still image. For optimal results, we recommend uploading videos shorter than 10 seconds. Longer videos will be trimmed to create the Live Photo.
How do I save the Live Photo to my iPhone?
After conversion, download the Live Photo package to your device. On iPhone, you can import it to your Photos app where it will be recognized as a Live Photo. You can also use Apple's iCloud or AirDrop to transfer it directly.
Will my Live Photo have sound?
Yes, if your original video has audio, the converted Live Photo will preserve the sound. You can toggle sound on/off when viewing the Live Photo on your device.
