Frame by Frame

Guide · iPhone and Android

Extract a still image on your phone

Frame by Frame uses the same core workflow on iPhone and Android: choose a video, extract a selected range, inspect frames, and save the one you want.

On iPhone

  1. Install Frame by Frame from the App Store and open it.
  2. Choose a video from your Photos library and grant the requested access.
  3. Select the time range, tap Extract, then open a frame from the results grid.
  4. Tap Save to add the still image to your Photos library.

On Android

  1. Install Frame by Frame from Google Play and open it.
  2. Choose a video with the Android picker, or share a video from your gallery into the app.
  3. Select the range, extract the frames, and inspect the results.
  4. Tap Save on the chosen frame to add it to your gallery.
On both platforms: The core video and frame processing happens on your device. No account is needed. The free version includes basic extraction and saving; longer actions may show a rewarded ad or offer optional Pro access.

Which frame should you choose?

Look for the clearest subject, the most useful expression or pose, and a composition that still works as a single image. Move between nearby frames if the first choice is blurred.
