Shiguang Live: Wallpaper Maker, an iPhone app that turns video clips into Live Photos and doubles as a wallpaper library, is listed as Free on its App Store page at the time of writing. The tip outlet 流動日報 New Mobile Life reports that the app’s original price is US $0.99 and that the offer is for a limited time. It does not state an end date.
What is Shiguang Live?
The full App Store name is Shiguang Live: Wallpaper Maker Video to Live Photo Converter. It sits in the Utilities category, is built for iPhone and comes from an individual developer listed on the page. The listing describes one app that combines video creation with a browsable wallpaper collection.
What can it do?
The App Store text splits the app into four parts:
- Live Photos from video: import a video, choose a clip, select the still cover and adjust the composition, then save the result as a Live Photo. You can also import an existing Live Photo, and unfinished edits are kept as drafts.
- Wallpaper browsing: explore curated picks, or browse by category, keyword or colour, including nature, oceans, cities, art and cartoons.
- Previews before saving: switch between the original image, a Lock Screen preview and a Home Screen preview to see how clocks, widgets and icons sit over the picture.
- Favourites: bookmark wallpapers and return to unfinished edits without starting over.
Images and Live Photos can be saved to your photo library. The app can be used in English or Simplified Chinese, or it follows the system language.
How much does it cost, and for how long?
The App Store page shows the app as Free right now. The US $0.99 original price comes from 流動日報 New Mobile Life, because the listing itself shows only the current Free label. No end date is given, so the offer could end at any time.
The sources do not state a Canadian App Store price for the regular version. Before downloading, open the listing in the Canadian store and check that the button reads Get, not a price. For the United States, the original price reported by the tip outlet is US $0.99.
Who is it for?
People who like making their own moving photos. The clip picker, cover selection and composition controls suit anyone who wants a favourite video as a Live Photo.
Anyone who changes their wallpaper often. The category, keyword and colour browsing, plus Lock Screen and Home Screen previews, help you judge a picture before you save it.
Readers who want a free try. The only cost is storage: the listing gives the size as 14.1 MB.
What is still unknown?
The most important catch is the system requirement: the listing says the app requires iOS 26.0 or later on iPhone. If your iPhone is not on that version, it will not install.
The developer also lists some limits on the page. You set the wallpaper yourself in iPhone Settings after saving, and Live Photo playback in the Photos app is different from Lock Screen animation. Whether motion plays on the Lock Screen depends on your device, your iOS version and the specific media.
The listing text we reviewed does not say whether there are in-app purchases, so check the Information section of the page. On privacy, the developer’s own answers, which Apple says it has not verified, say the app may collect an email address, user content and diagnostic data linked to your identity.
How do you get it?
Open the App Store on your iPhone and search for Shiguang Live, or go directly to the App Store listing. Check that the button reads Get and not a price, and that your iPhone meets the iOS requirement, then download it. If a price shows, the offer has ended.
