4 Better Live Photos Alternatives For Android Users

With the innovation of iOS9, Apple is going to add a new feature in iPhone 6s and 6s Plus which will be ‘Live Photos’. With this unique feature, people are able to capture 3 seconds of movement and sound in the still picture, just like a video. A 12 megapixel photo with animation and sound with a 3D touch, what can be better than this?

With this announcement, there is a huge probability that the Google camp must have already started to work on something bigger. Surely, it’s Google’s turn to prove that Android can do better than this and it seems like the rivalry will be getting hotter in a few days.

There have been news speculating about the new Google Camera 3.0 is introducing Live Photos feature. The live photos feature in Android is going to take a roll with the Smart Bursts which will likely to be automatically creating collages and capturing GIFs as soon as the camera button is held.

Google Photos already behaves like the live photos alternative, but the new camera app would definitely surpass all the previous innovations in live photos. This recent feature will probably directly compete with the Apple’s live photos feature which is capable of recording 1.5 seconds before and after the still photograph.
