LiveMaker converts any video into a real Live Photo, entirely on-device. Pick a clip, trim it to the perfect moment, crop the frame, mute audio, and choose the key frame — then save straight to Photos as a genuine Live Photo that plays when you press it. No uploads, no account, no subscription: everything runs locally with Apple's frameworks. Free to use; a one-time $3.99 Pro upgrade removes the watermark.

How well does the trimming actually sync with the key frame you pick, since Live Photos are only a couple seconds long — do you have control over which exact moment gets locked in?
Does the Live Photo it creates keep working across iCloud sync, or does it break down once it leaves the device?
Took a clip of my dog catching a treat and it saved as a real Live Photo on the first try, the key frame picker felt really thoughtful for nailing the exact moment.
Finally an app that actually makes Live Photos work the way they should. Trimmed a short clip of my dog and it saved straight to Photos with the key frame intact.
Finally got the lock screen Live Photo I wanted from a random clip — worked first try and never left my phone. The on-device processing is a nice touch for anyone wary of uploading stuff.
