$2.99 in the App Store

Extract photos from your videos with this slick photography app.

What is it about?

Video 2 Photo allows you to export one or more high quality photos from your videos (and Live Photos) in a quick, fun and original way. An animated and original interface allows you to precisely select a picture from all the ones contained in the video. It is also possible to view the video (possibly in full screen) and to directly target a specific time. Once the image is selected, you will be able to view it (possibly in full screen), to eventually crop it (keeping the most interesting part of it) and to export it (to PNG or JPEG files) in different ways.

For those who...

  • Want to have the option of having both still pictures and live video

Not for those who...

  • Don't have the desire to extract photos

Why we love it

It makes it easy to capture pictures from video and allows you to share with family and friends.
