Phone guide
From your phone, step by step.
Nine short steps from a photo in your camera roll to a clip you can save. Every step here is something you do on your phone, in your browser.
- 01
Get your photo ready
Open your camera app and take a new photo, or scroll your camera roll and choose a recent one. Pick the sharpest shot where your face is clear and the light is good. If you are shooting new, tap your face to focus, hold still for a second and take three or four. You only need one.
- 02
Open the generator in your browser
Tap any button on this site. It opens the generator in your phone's browser in a new tab. There is nothing to install. If you like, your browser can add it to your home screen later for one-tap access.
- 03
Sign in if asked
You may be asked to sign in, especially to see your saved clips. The generator shows options such as Google, Telegram or an email code. Choose the one you already use and trust. Do not share a login with anyone.
- 04
Upload the photo
Tap the upload area and choose your photo from the library. The generator states JPG or PNG, up to 7 MB. If your phone offers a choice of photo size at the pop-up, pick the original or largest option.
- 05
Choose a template
Scroll through the templates. Each is a ready-made motion applied to your photo. Choose one that suits the mood of the photo: a night shot with a night-feeling template, a bright daytime photo with something upbeat.
- 06
Check the settings and the cost
Before you generate, look at the settings. The generator has quality choices and a duration choice, and shows a cost line. Longer clips are advertised to take longer. If anything looks unexpected, back out and read it again.
- 07
Tap generate and wait
The advertised wait is about two minutes. Keep your phone awake and connected. If you leave the page, your finished clip should be waiting in your collection when you sign back in.
- 08
Watch, then save
Watch your clip once with sound off and once looking only at the face. If you like it, use the download option on the clip. Not happy? The generator offers follow-ups such as a different pose from the same photo, a longer video, or another run. Each may cost credits.
- 09
Share it, or do not
A saved clip is a normal video file on your phone. Share only when you are comfortable doing so, and only if the person in it is you and you are happy for others to see it.
Browser and home screen
Do I need an app?
No. The generator is a website, so you use it in Safari, Chrome or any other phone browser. There is nothing to download from an app store for it, and we do not link to one. Be careful: other apps with similar names may exist. They are not what the buttons on this site open.
Many phone browsers let you add a website to your home screen. In most browsers you open the share or menu button and look for an add-to-home-screen option. Doing that makes a shortcut icon for one-tap access. It is optional, it is only a shortcut to the same website, and the steps differ between phones.
Phone habits that help
- Use Wi-Fi for uploading and downloading when you can.
- Keep the screen awake while a clip is being built.
- Close other heavy apps if your phone feels slow.
- Keep your browser up to date.
- Use a private or hidden album if other people use your phone.
Good to know
What we have not verified.
We keep this page honest. The upload, template choice and generate steps are all things you do in a phone browser. We have not tested every step of saving a finished clip on every phone, which is why this guide does not promise a particular result.
We also do not know the resolution, aspect ratio, file type or size of a finished download. The generator will show you. If something on your screen differs from this guide, trust your screen, because the generator can change without telling us.
If you want the longer version of our limits, see the FAQ and the credits page.
Fixes
If something goes sideways.
The upload will not go through
Check the file is a JPG or PNG under 7 MB. If your phone saves photos in another format, export a copy as JPG, or switch your camera to its most compatible format and shoot again. Try again on a stronger connection.
The result does not look like my photo
AI video drifts sometimes. Try a photo with a clearer face, more even light and a simpler pose. Make sure nothing covers your face. Try a different template on the same photo.
The clip is taking a long time
Longer clips and higher quality settings take longer, and busy periods add waiting. Keep the page open, stay on a steady connection and check your collection before you re-run, so you do not spend credits twice.
I cannot find my clip
Sign in with the same account you used to create it, then open your collection. If you used a different sign-in method last time, that may be a different account.
Something failed and credits changed
Take a screenshot, note the time, and contact in-product support. See our credits page for how failure rules appear to be described.
The download did not work
Try again on Wi-Fi, check free space on your phone, and try a different browser. If the download option shows an error, contact in-product support. We do not know the exact file type or size you should expect, so we cannot say what is normal.
Got your photo? Go.
