LiveRotate, or how to rotate Live Photos from iPhone

LiveRotate

There are things about Apple that are incomprehensible: last September they presented Live Photos, an addition that gives a life of three seconds to the images we take with our iPhone 6s / Plus or 9.7-inch iPad Pro. What is not understood is that, for example, if we want to rotate a Live Photo, the magic effect disappears and it becomes a still image. How can we turn them and keep them moving? Well, as usual, using third-party software, such as LiveRotate.

Using LiveRotate is so simple that once again we don't understand how the same cannot be done with the default iOS Reel Photo Editor. Like when we want to edit an image from the reel, when we want rotate a Live Photo With LiveRotate, we will see at the bottom an icon that looks a lot like the one Apple includes in its editor, but it is green. Each time we touch it, we will move the photo 90º to the left, so if we want to rotate a Live Photo to the right, we will have to touch the icon three times.

LiveRotate allows you to rotate your Live Photos

Explained a little how the application works, one must ask: is it worth it? Let's see: LiveRotate is not a free application, it has a price of € 0.99. If I ask myself the question today, June 13, it is because in less than an hour the WWDC will begin and will present iOS 10 (or whatever they call it), so it's worth waiting a little longer to find out if this option is available in the default iOS editor. € 1 is nothing for an application if it gives us the expected results, but it can always come in handy for another application that we are going to use, always on the assumption that iOS 10 allows us to rotate the Live Photos in a native.

In any case, LiveRotate allows us to rotate Apple's "live photos" right away and the final version of iOS 10 will arrive in September, so if you need it, you just have to click / touch on the following link.
