Common Questions About Live Photos

Everything you need to know about converting videos to dynamic wallpapers.

What files are generated after conversion? +

Dopic creates a paired bundle consisting of a high-resolution .HEIC image file and a short .MOV video file. This is the native format iOS uses to display Live Photos.

Does this work on Android phones? +

Live Photos are an Apple-exclusive feature designed for iOS devices (iPhone and iPad). While you can transfer the files to Android, they will not function as Live Photos natively; they will appear as separate image and video files.

Is my video uploaded to a server? +

No. Dopic uses advanced client-side technology. Your video is processed entirely within your web browser, meaning it is never uploaded to our servers, ensuring maximum privacy.

How do I save the Live Photo to my iPhone? +

After conversion, download both the .HEIC and .MOV files. Transfer them to your iPhone (via AirDrop, iCloud, or Files app), and open the .HEIC file. Tap Share > 'Save Image'. The system will automatically pair it with the video.

Are there any limits on video length? +

For optimal performance and compatibility with iOS Live Photo standards, we recommend keeping source videos under 10-15 seconds. Longer videos may be trimmed or converted slower depending on browser capabilities.
