Looking to add some spice to your iPhone wallpaper? Look no further than a live wallpaper, which brings your screen to life with constantly moving imagery. While other devices like Xiaomi allow for simple video-to-wallpaper conversion, the process is a bit more involved on an iPhone. But don’t worry, it’s still relatively simple and can be accomplished with a free third-party app called VideoToLive. Here’s how to make live wallpaper on iPhone from a video, step by step.
Step 1: Install VideoToLive App
The first thing you’ll need to do is download the VideoToLive app, which is available for free in the App Store. Once you’ve installed the app, you’ll need to give it permission to access all of your photos.
Step 2: Convert Video
Next, select the video that you want to make into a live wallpaper and tap “Convert.” You’ll then be able to adjust the video size so that it fits perfectly on your screen. Once that’s done, set the duration of the video that will be used as your wallpaper, and hit “Convert Now.”
Step 3: Go to Wallpaper Settings
Once the video has finished converting, head to the menu titled “Arrangement” and scroll to select “Wallpapers.” From there, click “Select New Wallpaper.”
Step 4: Select Live Photos
Now, find and tap on the option labeled “Live Photos,” and choose the video you just converted. After that, tap the “Set” button at the bottom.
