# Live photo extractor

Pairs iPhone Live Photo stills with their MOV halves by filename, previews each pair, and downloads the still, the video, or paired ZIPs without re-encoding any bytes.

Drop stills and videos to pair

Export unmodified originals from iCloud Photos or the Mac Photos app, then drop both halves here. Nothing leaves this tab.

How pairing works: two files belong together when their names match letter for letter, ignoring case, once the last extension is removed, so IMG_1234.HEIC and IMG_1234.MOV form one Live Photo. An IMG_E1234 name is an edited copy and pairs only with an edited video of the same name; an edit copy with no video half is listed, never silently joined to the original. A name with two stills or two videos is ambiguous and flagged rather than guessed. Downloads hand back the exact original bytes, so metadata, and the motion and still halves themselves, stay untouched; nothing is re-encoded and no GIF or MP4 conversion is offered, because browsers cannot reliably decode every iPhone video. A Live Photo another app saved as one combined file cannot be split here, since there are no two files to pair in the first place.
