Our Lottie Tools

The Complete Free Toolkit for Lottie Animations

Lottie is the JSON-based animation format that powers lightweight, scalable animations in iOS, Android, React Native, and web apps. But getting content into and out of Lottie format usually means expensive software, LottieFiles subscriptions, or manual After Effects work. Our Lottie toolkit converts video and GIF sources to Lottie JSON, and exports Lottie animations back to GIF or MP4 — entirely free, with no signup and no file uploads.

Convert video clips to Lottie with our MP4 to Lottie, MOV to Lottie, and WebM to Lottie converters — perfect for turning iPhone screen recordings, browser captures, and video assets into app-ready animations. Each lets you pick your exact clip range, frame rate, and output quality, with automatic frame deduplication to keep file sizes small.

Already have a Lottie animation and need to share it somewhere Lottie can't play? Our Lottie to GIF converter exports with transparent background support for Slack, docs, and email, while Lottie to MP4 produces hardware-accelerated H.264 video for social media, presentations, and video editors — both rendered with the official lottie-web engine for pixel-accurate results.

Once your Lottie file is built, run it through our Lottie Optimizer to strip the bloat that After Effects and conversion tools leave behind: full floating-point precision, layer names, generator metadata, and oversized embedded images. Typical files shrink 20-60% with no visible difference — critical for app bundle size and Core Web Vitals.

Before shipping any Lottie file — whether you converted it here, downloaded it from LottieFiles, or received it from a designer — use the Lottie Preview to check what you're actually working with: frame rate, frame count, layer count, and embedded image count, all without opening the JSON in a text editor. It's the fastest way to confirm a file plays correctly and catch an oversized animation before it reaches your codebase.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Lottie and why would I convert to it?

Lottie is a JSON-based animation format maintained by LottieFiles. It's the standard for lightweight, scalable animations in iOS, Android, React Native, and web apps — supporting programmatic playback control (pause, scrub, speed) that raw video and GIF can't offer. Converting video or GIF sources to Lottie lets you embed short animations in an app without shipping a video file.

Which video formats can I convert to Lottie?

MP4, MOV (QuickTime, including iPhone screen recordings), and WebM (browser and screen-recorder output) are all supported, each with a dedicated converter. You can also convert animated GIFs to Lottie. Every converter lets you pick your clip range, frame rate, and output quality.

Can I convert a Lottie file back to video or GIF?

Yes. Lottie to GIF exports an animated GIF with optional transparency, ideal for Slack, docs, and email. Lottie to MP4 exports H.264 video using your browser's hardware encoder, ideal for social media, presentations, and video editors. Both support .json and .lottie (dotLottie) input.

How much smaller does the Lottie Optimizer make my files?

Typically 20-60% smaller with no visible difference. It recompresses embedded raster images as WebP, trims numeric precision to 2 decimals (sub-pixel accurate), and strips layer names and generator metadata that players never use during playback.

Are my video and Lottie files uploaded to a server?

No. Every tool in this toolkit — video decoding, frame rendering, GIF/MP4 encoding, and Lottie optimization — runs entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device, which matters for unreleased product work and client assets under NDA.

Is this really free, unlike LottieFiles or other converters?

Yes, completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no conversion limits. There's no subscription tier gating features — every tool in this toolkit is fully usable without an account.
