Compare: Live Photo vs GIF

Live Photos and GIFs serve similar purposes but differ in key ways. Live Photos include audio, have higher quality, and only animate when pressed. GIFs are silent, loop continuously, have lower quality, but work everywhere.

• Live Photo: Higher quality, includes audio, requires Apple device to view natively
• GIF: Universal compatibility, auto-loops, no audio, larger file size for same quality

Tips for Best GIF Quality

• Use 15 FPS for a good balance between smoothness and file size
• Keep the size under 640px width for social media compatibility
• Choose "Loop Forever" for continuous animation
• Use Medium quality to reduce file size for messaging apps
