MyHeritage Live Memory

In the past I have written about the various photo enhancement tools that MyHeritage has available.

• During RootsTech 2024, I posted about MyHeritage releasing the Reimagine app. This app automatically cropped individual photos from a photo album page and performed facial recognition, matching the various photos to those who were in them.
• In 2022, I posted about MyHeritage's AI Time Machine application which transported your images back to any time you wanted. Millions of people reimagined themselves as cowboys, Roman gladiators, and astronauts.
• During RootsTech 2022, I posted about MyHeritage releasing their Deep Story applications. The Deep Story application added onto the Deep Nostalgia application from 2021 by not only animating the images but allowing them to tell their own story. 
• During RootsTech 2021, I posted about MyHeritage releasing their Deep Nostalgia application. The Deep Nostalgia application animated the faces of our ancestors. 
• During RootsTech 2020, I posted about MyHeritage announcing their In Color photo colorization tool which changed our black and white and discolored photos to color images.

And now, MyHeritage has released their Live Memory application. This application can animate your photos into 5 second video clips. I have tried it on several of my photos and here is an example of one of the better versions. The quality of the video depends on the quality of the photograph. Poor lighting, shadows, blurriness all contribute to poor video output.

The MyHeritage AI tool is able to take the context of the photograph and provides a relevant video that can be used to tell a story. Running the same photo through the Live Memory app several times does produce a different video each time so you can select the one you like the best if you aren't happy with what is produced.

The App is only available on the updated MyHeritage mobile app and can be used with your photo gallery on the device or the photos that have been uploaded to your MyHeritage Gallery.
