Video to Live Photo preparation

Choose a cover moment from an MP4 or MOV and download a paired preparation package. The page deliberately does not claim final Apple Photos compatibility before iPhone acceptance.

Browser local · preparation output · iPhone acceptance pending

Choose an MP4 or MOVThe original video is kept; PhotoReady extracts your selected cover frame.

How it works

From source to local download

Choose an MP4 or MOV in the browser.
Scrub to the frame you want as the still cover.
Download the paired MOV and generated cover JPG together in a ZIP.

Known limits

What to check before relying on the output

The package writes matching Apple asset identifiers and a MOV still-image-time track.
Photos-recognized Live Photo import and lock-screen behavior require the deferred iPhone gate.
The source video is not uploaded or transcoded.

Privacy

The media path stays in this tab.

PhotoReady reads the selected files with browser APIs and creates Blob downloads locally. The application has no media upload endpoint, account, analytics SDK or cloud album.
