Animated icon maker

Make a small icon that beats, turns or wiggles, from a starter or your own SVG, and save it as a GIF, an animated WebP or a PNG. Free, with no account or uploads.

Start from a heart that beats in a turning ring, or bring in your own SVG icon and give it keys.

Make an icon move

A .riv or a Lottie plays as it is; an SVG becomes shapes you can move; a picture is placed on the artboard; a 3D model opens in the 3D editor.

How it works and help

A little help along the way

Follow these steps. Every option is explained underneath. Everything happens in your browser; nothing you draw or bring in is sent anywhere.

  1. Say what you want to makeChoose a moving logo or icon, a loading animation or an animated icon to open a small animation that already moves, ready to change. Open a file takes an SVG, a picture or a project you saved before; you can also drop an SVG on the page.
  2. DrawDraw rectangles, ellipses, polygons, stars and triangles, paths with the pen, and strokes with the pencil and brush. Fill closed areas with the bucket, join or cut shapes with the Shape Builder, and write words in the site's fonts.
  3. Animate with keysA key says what a part is like at one moment: its position, turn, size, opacity or colours. Set a key at one time and another later, and every frame between them is worked out for you.
  4. Choose the easingEach key says how the movement goes on to the next: Steady, Jump, Smooth, Speed up, Slow down, Speed up, slow down, Overshoot or Spring, or a curve of your own in the graph editor.
  5. Play itPlay the timeline to watch it. It can loop, play once or play there and back, and a work area plays only the part you are working on.
  6. Export itSay where it will go: social media or a video makes an MP4, a chat or an email a GIF, a website or an app an animated WebP with a clear background, and a still picture a PNG or SVG of one frame. Each file is checked before it is offered.

Questions people ask

Can I animate my own SVG icon?
Yes. Bring in the SVG and give it keys: a beat is its size growing and shrinking, a turn is its rotation, a wiggle a few small turns back and forth. Every change can be undone.
Which file should I save my icon as?
A GIF plays in every chat and email, and this page saves one already. For a website, choose an animated WebP with a clear background; for a still, a PNG or an SVG of one frame.
Is my icon uploaded anywhere?
No. It is drawn, moved and saved by your browser on your device, and nothing about it is sent anywhere. A project is kept on the device only while its switch is on.
