About
``` Lockimate turns any still photo into a living lock-screen wallpaper for iPhone. The problem it solves: iOS will only animate a lock screen if the file is a genuine Apple Live Photo — a paired .heic image and .mov clip carrying specific metadata. Most apps in this category either require you to supply your own video clip, or export an .mp4 you then have to run through a separate converter, which usually still fails. iOS gives no error when it refuses; the Live badge simply greys out. How it works: 1. Pick any photo from your library — a portrait, a pet, a landscape, even a screenshot. 2. Choose the motion. Lockimate reads the photo and ranks motions that suit it, or you can search the full list, or type your own description of how it should move. 3. Optionally restyle the photo before animating: Realistic (free), Anime, 3D Cartoon, Painterly, or Neon Coast. 4. About 2-3 minutes later the finished Live Photo is in your Camera Roll, ready to set through the normal iOS Settings flow
