Free Online Live Photo to GIF Converter

Convert Apple Live Photo files (.livp) to animated GIF format online for free. Live Photos are short animations captured on iPhones and iPads that combine a still JPEG image with a short MOV video clip. This tool extracts the video component and converts it into a universally compatible animated GIF.

How It Works

Our Live Photo to GIF converter opens your .livp file — a ZIP archive containing a MOV video and a JPEG key frame — extracts the video, and converts it into a high-quality animated GIF using optimized palette generation. The result is a universally shareable animation that works on any device, browser, or social media platform.

How to Use

  1. Upload your Live Photo: Select a .livp file from your device. You can export Live Photos from the Photos app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

  2. Click "Convert to GIF!": Our tool will extract the video from the Live Photo and generate an animated GIF.

  3. Download: Save the resulting GIF file and share it anywhere — on social media, in messages, or on the web.

Why Convert Live Photo to GIF?

  • Universal compatibility: GIFs work on every device, browser, and platform, while Live Photos are limited to Apple devices.

  • Easy sharing: Share your Live Photo moments on social media, forums, messaging apps, and websites that support GIFs.

  • No special apps needed: Recipients don't need an iPhone or Apple device to view your animated moments.

  • Preserve animations: Keep the motion from your Live Photos in a format that will play automatically everywhere.
