When Lottielab fits better

The animation ships inside an app or a website as a small vector file, starts from Figma frames, reacts to people, or is shared across a product team. smooth.video does none of that.

When Motionity fits better

You want to read, change or host the code yourself under an MIT license, or you need Lottie files as layers, chroma key or a built-in stock image search. smooth.video has none of those.

Motionity vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

The animation ends up as a video: a social post, a product teaser, a clip for a presentation or a README, maybe with photos, footage or music, and you want it in full HD or 4K without a plan.

You liked the idea of Motionity, a free motion design tool in the browser with no account, and want one that's still updated, exports MP4 and transparent WebM, and has templates to start from.

Questions

Can I import Figma designs?
Not directly. Export the pieces you want to move as PNG and drop them in, or bring a layered PSD to get each layer as its own element.
Can smooth.video export Lottie?
No. It exports MP4, WebM, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.
Is HD export free?
Yes. Every resolution is free, 4K included.
Can I open Motionity projects?
No. smooth.video opens its own .smooth files: bring your images, videos and audio over and rebuild the animation.
Where are my projects stored?
In your browser, as with Motionity. Save a project as a .smooth file to keep a copy or move it to another computer.
Can I export MP4?
Yes, as well as WebM with transparency, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.
