YOLP

Turn any video into a real Apple Live Photo — generated in the browser, landed in Photos by a native iOS helper, and proven by a verification ladder instead of vibes.

What it is

A toolchain that converts ordinary video into genuine Apple Live Photo pairs — for creators who want motion wallpapers and developers who need to understand the undocumented format.

How it works

A Live Photo is a JPEG + QuickTime MOV linked by one UUID in Apple-private metadata. YOLP writes that metadata from scratch — in pure TypeScript in the browser, and through Apple’s own frameworks on device — then validates every output against independent oracles.
