Description

Delete "Live" portion of Live Photos

Lean helps you save space on your iPhone by cleaning up your unwanted Live Photos, making them normal photos (or Feature Photos as @siracusa put it).

Think of landscape photos, which most of the time are with very little movement. Even if you go to Photos app and mark it as non-Live Photo, it doesn't really remove anything (you can revert back anytime). That fills up your precious space, especially for those of your who are on 16GB iPhone. So Lean is a really simple that does exactly that, remove the "Live" part out of Live Photos.

Lean is extremely simple, it takes your unwanted Live Photo and chunk out a normal one, then delete the Live Photo. Lean also comes some cool features:

- Lean saves your normal photo with exact same metadata (EXIF, GPS, Creation Date) as your Live Photo.
- Lean is defensive. We really care for users' data and we spent a great deal of time to make sure Lean never removes a Live Photo without making a copy.

Enjoy!

Poor experience

Thought that I have found an apple which can help me to reclaim iCloud storage. Only works on individual level photos not on bulk... I have 7500 Live Photo’s. Selecting them manually is already painful enough.

98% happy - wish iOS itself could do this

I have found Live photos have contributed massively to consumption of most storage on my iPhone.
I really like that this Lean app does retain the original date+timestamp as the original photo as that was extremely important to me.
I am now on iOS v14 and the security of allowing all photos or just some to the Lean app is good, I just wish I could suggest there be some way to enable the “Live Album” as a whole to Lean.
When it does the copy, the photo will appear at the newest end of your list of photos and not next to the original, but at least the Date+Timestamp remain unchanged and I am extremely happy it does that (if that date reflected when I converted the photo instead of the original date then that would have been a problem).

I do think it could be nice to allow a selection option that could do the whole Live album but honestly that’s a bonus on top of what I really needed - reduction of file size without ruining the original date/time information.

Thank you so much! Was worth the approx $3AUD and the app size is tiny - very useful when your problem is already not much space remaining!

Cheers!

Falls short

‘Bulk’ conversion requires the user to tick photos individually. 🙄This is not bulk.
While the new stills duplicates have the same date and time as the originals they will appear as MOST RECENT in your camera roll, and so they are no longer in the original order you took all your other pictures and videos. 🙄 This is bad.
After about 50 conversions an error message appeared saying there was likely not enough storage on my device. There is over 60Gb of storage available. 🙄 This is useless.
The app does not put the new stills in the same folders as the originals. 🙄Have fun putting 1000s of travel pictures into their folders again!
Waste of money.
