By toggling the Live Photo effect on your iPhone, you can effortlessly create Boomerang videos without any third-party apps.

Many of us use Live Photos to capture memories in animated snippets on our iPhones. But did you know that you can make Live Photos bounce back and forth, similar to the Instagram and Snapchat boom effect? Heres how to do it.

There are more Live Photos

Live Photos is a camera feature built into iPhones that allows users to record short video clips on either side of the photos they take. This results in a three-second video clip with audio.

Live Photos is a very old feature, which made its debut in iOS 9 with the release of iPhone 6S, where Live Photos was one of its main features.

A few years later, Apple upped its game by adding effects to Live Photos. These were released in iOS 11. It is these effects that allow you to create a mutation on your iPhone. Aside from adding effects, you can also edit your Live Photos, use Live Photos as wallpapers, and even turn them into GIFs.

2. Click on shutter button as usual.

Once you are done capturing a Live Photo, go to the Photos app to edit it:

2. Click on vivid picture then select bounce, bounce.

• episode: Instead of having to press hard on a Live Photo to play it, this effect plays it in a loop. It comes with motion blur effect.
• prolonged exposure: This simulates the trick of shooting by using a slow shutter speed to blur the moving elements of the image without affecting the static ones.
