Remember them
every year
On the anniversary of their passing, bring their portrait to life. A gentle AI animation — a new way to pause, remember, and share with family.
Memorial Photo Animator is an iPhone app that creates a death anniversary tribute video from one portrait photo using AI. The app is designed for annual remembrance — families use it on the anniversary of a loved one's passing, sometimes called a "heaveniversary," to create a gentle animated memorial video to watch together or share privately. It costs $4.99 as a one-time purchase per video, requires no editing skills, and delivers the animated portrait in approximately 1–2 minutes. The motion is subtle and respectful — no dramatic effects, just quiet life added to a still image. No subscription required. Available on iPhone via the App Store.
