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.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
The animation goes into a video, a social post, an email or a slide, uses photos, footage or music next to shapes, and you want the file without paying for 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.
