How to use GIPHY to turn GIFs into Live Photos
I don't like keeping a lot of live photos on my camera roll. So using apps I have, I convert them to video so they can be stored in Box or Dropbox. Then I have an app to convert them back to live photos if I want. I haven't thought about converting a gif to live photo. I've converted gifs to video format though. Live photos are fun, but there's no way to store them anywhere off the camera roll. They take a lot of storage space.
