Back in September during the iPhone 7 reveal, there was an instagram demo where they showed off IG using the live photo API to turn Live Photos into boomerangs. It was also specifically stated that you could turn *existing* Live Photos into boomerangs.

Well, I still cannot find this feature over 3 months later. Am I missing something? Was it never implemented? I've taken some pretty cool Live Photos that I'd like to share completely animated, and I never remember to hurry up and launch Instagram and switch to boomerang mode to capture it. Yeah I know there's some gif creators to workaround this, but it's cumbersome.

TLDR: where is the Live photo support that was demoed?
