Turn any video into a live wallpaper — free, no watermark

Updated 2026-07-06

Most video-to-wallpaper converters either stamp a watermark on your clip, cap the quality, or make you upload your footage to their servers. 2Live does none of that: it turns any video into a 4K Live Photo wallpaper for free, watermark-free, entirely on your iPhone.

  1. 1

    Open 2Live and tap Create

    Pick any video from your library — a clip you filmed, a saved download, or a screen recording. A few seconds of smooth motion works best.

  2. 2

    Trim to the best moment

    Drag the trim handles to the two-to-five seconds you want on your lock screen. No account, no paywall, no watermark added at any step.

  3. 3

    Enhance to 4K on-device

    Let the on-device AI sharpen detail, reduce noise, and lift color toward 4K. Every step runs locally — your video is never uploaded.

  4. 4

    Export as a Live Photo

    Tap Export to save a clean, watermark-free Live Photo to your Photos library, optimized for the lock screen.

  5. 5

    Set it as your wallpaper

    Settings → Wallpaper → Add New Wallpaper → Photos, choose the new Live Photo, and confirm the Live toggle is on. Press and hold the lock screen to play it.

Why “no watermark” and “on-device” go together

Free web converters pay for their servers by stamping a watermark or gating the export — and they need you to upload your video first. Because 2Live processes everything on the phone, there's no server cost to recoup, so the export stays free and clean, and your footage never leaves your device.

Already have a watermark in the source?

If your clip came from TikTok or Instagram with the app's own watermark baked in, save the original before it's stamped where you can, or use 2Live's trim to crop the corner it sits in. 2Live never adds a watermark of its own.

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free with no watermark?

Yes. 2Live exports your Live Photo wallpaper free and without any 2Live watermark.

Does my video get uploaded to a server?

No. Import, trim, enhance and export all happen on your iPhone, so your video never leaves the device.

What video formats work?

Standard clips from your Photos library — including MP4 and MOV, and screen recordings — all work. Two to five seconds of smooth motion looks best.
