Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about creating Live Photos

Does this tool work on Android phones? +

No. This tool specifically creates iOS Live Photos (.HEIC + .MOV), which are exclusive to Apple devices. Android users should look for Motion Photo converters instead.

Absolutely not. Dopic uses advanced client-side technology to process your video entirely within your browser. Your file is never uploaded to any cloud server, ensuring maximum privacy.

What video formats are supported? +

We support all common video formats including MP4, MOV, AVI, and WebM. The output will always be a paired HEIC image and MOV audio/video bundle compatible with iOS.

Will the quality be reduced after conversion? +

We preserve the original resolution and frame rate as much as possible. While compression may occur to fit iOS standards, the visual quality remains crisp and vibrant.

How do I set the Live Photo as my wallpaper? +

After downloading the HEIC file, open it in your iPhone Photos app, tap Share, select 'Use as Wallpaper', and choose your preferred position (Lock Screen or Home Screen).
