Every chat app has its own rules — size cap, dimension cap, frame count, format quirk. Generic GIF makers ignore them, so the file you just spent two minutes crafting clips into a still, refuses to upload, or breaks animation when you send it. LoopSnap fixes that. Pick a destination chip. Pick a Live Photo, video, or burst of stills. LoopSnap exports the right artifact — a 512 px animated WebP for WhatsApp Stickers, a 240 px under-1 MB GIF for WeChat 表情, a generously sized GIF for iMessage, whatever the chat app actually wants. No guessing. No "why won't this upload." — WHAT MAKES LOOPSNAP DIFFERENT — • DESTINATION-AWARE EXPORT Not "export as GIF" then guess the size. Pick where it's going first — WeChat Sticker, WeChat Chat, WhatsApp Sticker, WhatsApp Chat, iMessage, Telegram, Universal — and LoopSnap targets that platform's exact spec. • LIVE PHOTOS, VIDEOS, BURSTS Start from any source the system Photos picker allows. Live Photos straight from the camera roll. Short videos (MP4, MOV, HEVC). Bursts and multi-photo selections. LoopSnap handles the conversion. • THE RIGHT FORMAT FOR THE PLATFORM WhatsApp Stickers need animated WebP, not GIF. WeChat 表情 needs sub-1 MB. Telegram accepts MP4. LoopSnap knows which format each destination actually accepts — generic GIF tools force-export GIF and your sticker fails. • PIXEL-PERFECT PREVIEW The preview matches the exported file exactly. If it loops smoothly in the preview, it loops smoothly in WeChat. • 100% ON-DEVICE No accounts, no uploads, no analytics, no third-party SDKs. Photos and clips never leave the device — verifiable in the App Store privacy nutrition label. — DESTINATIONS IN VERSION 1.0 — • WeChat Sticker (微信表情) — 240 px GIF, under 1 MB, square • WeChat Chat — 480 px GIF, under 1 MB • WhatsApp Sticker — 512 px animated WebP, under 500 KB, 3-second loop • WhatsApp Chat — GIF up to 16 MB • iMessage — GIF, no practical cap • Telegram — GIF or MP4, up to 50 MB • Universal — generic 480 px GIF, up to 4 MB — WHO IS LOOPSNAP FOR? — • People who have tried sending a Live Photo to WeChat 表情 and watched it arrive as a still • Anyone whose WhatsApp Sticker upload failed because the file was too big • Folks who paid for a Boomerang-style app that exports the wrong format • Anyone who has Googled "WeChat sticker size limit" more than once — PRICING — Free tier is fully functional. Every destination, every format, no daily limits. One-time Pro unlock removes the small watermark, extends source clips from 3 to 10 seconds, and includes every future free update. Never a subscription. — FEEDBACK — Made by a small indie team. Email obeliskclubclub@gmail.com with feature requests, bug reports, or a chat app whose rules we should add to the matrix.

Key features

  • One chip per chat app

    Seven destination chips — WeChat Sticker, WhatsApp Sticker, WeChat Chat, WhatsApp Chat, iMessage, Telegram, Universal — each pre-configured with format, size cap, and dimensions that the receiving app will actually accept.

  • Live Photos, video, or bursts

    Start from a Live Photo, a short MP4/MOV/HEVC clip, or a multi-photo selection. LoopSnap stitches the loop and shows a frame-accurate preview before you export.

  • GIF, MP4, animated WebP

    All three encoders run on-device. WhatsApp's animated WebP and WeChat's tight GIF byte-budget both produce files that play correctly in the destination app on first try.

  • One-time Pro unlock

    $7.99 buys lifetime watermark removal plus a 10-second source-clip cap (free tier is capped at 3 s). No subscription, no recurring charge, restore-purchase supported.

  • Privacy by construction

    Zero accounts, zero network calls, zero third-party SDKs. The only file system access is your photo library and the Files app share sheet you invoke. Verify it in the privacy nutrition label.
