Lumia Cinemagraph 4.6.0.12
The dedicated application that takes care of this operation is LumiaCinemagraph and it offers the basic tools for obtaining a nice animation in a matter of minutes right from your smartphone.
Tidy appearance with a clear focus on practicality
The simple and clean look of this app provides a lot of room for previewing the cinemagraph and editing it. The commands are at hand, neatly placed in the lower side of the screen, so it is quite easy to pick a tool and make the adjustments on the spot, while viewing how the final product will look like.
When selecting a certain instrument inside LumiaCinemagraph, in the upper part of the screen you will see a short description of what you can do while that tool is active.
Customize the captures and animate them as you please
The enhancements brought about by this app will make it possible for you to alter the initial parameters of the snapshot taken with the on-board camera. Thus, you can modify the speed and make the movements appear slow or very slow as compared to the original.
The motion can be set into a loop or, by activating the "Bounce" setting, you will make the animation play from beginning to end and then retrace its steps. Activating the motion in certain areas of the image or making the animated areas still can be easily done, thanks to the built-in features of LumiaCinemagraph.
Easily share your work online or send it to your friends
As soon as the editing is finished, you will be able to save the cinemagraph and then export the GIF animation or share it. Among the methods of distributing the newly created animation, you can opt for "copy link to clipboard".
This setting uploads the file you created onto the Nokia servers and then places the URL address to it in the system clipboard so you can paste it in a email, SMS, instant message and so on.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
The appearance of Lumia Cinemagraph is far from being dazzling, as the clean look and neatly organized layout puts the focus on getting the job done rather than catching the eye of the user. |
Function7
The feature set included in this app covers just some basic modifications that can be made to the input, so there is a lot of room for improvement by adding more effects, filters and even some image cropping or redimensioning options. |
Security7
This utility requires the activation of location services and will need access to the phone identity. The information it gets from these areas of the system is used for tagging the user location in the pictures taken with the on-board camera, an option that can be deactivated from the "photos+ camera" menu under the "Settings" area of Windows Phone. |
Battery7
The power consumption while using this app is moderate and can go well passed that mark when sharing or uploading lots of files from the cinemagraph albums hosted inside the application. |
Price10
One of the very few utilities of this kind, Lumia Cinemagraph is quite valuable as it offers all its features for free. |
Compatibility7
Since it is available only for Lumia devices, the app has a more reduced potential insofar as the reach among the users of Windows Phones is concerned. On the other hand, the requirements for using it the right way are minimalistic for Windows Phone 8 and |
