Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm a huge fan of the Memories Android app – it's a fantastic alternative to Google Photos! One thing I’ve noticed is that Live Photos currently play in a continuous loop, which can feel unnatural or distracting during casual browsing.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to have a setting that allows Live Photos to play only once instead of looping endlessly. This could be a simple toggle in the app settings, giving users control over playback behavior.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Right now, there's no way to stop the looping without converting the Live Photo to a video before uploading – which loses the "Live" feeling. Sticking with Photos is not an option for privacy-conscious users, so a simple playback option in Memories would be ideal.

Additional context
Really appreciate the work you're doing with this app – it's beautiful and works incredibly well overall. Just this small playback tweak would improve the user experience even more. Thanks for considering!
