What it does
Adding motion to a page usually means working with GIFs or video files, which can be heavy, or writing custom code, which takes time. Lottie animations solve much of this because they are JSON-based, so they stay light and scale cleanly to any screen size. This plugin brings that format into the WordPress editor and connects it to an online library of thousands of animations made by designers, so you can find something that fits without building it yourself.
The workflow is short: you choose an animation and insert it in a couple of clicks, then set options such as autoplay and effects. Animations are responsive and retina ready, so they look sharp on phones and high-resolution displays. The plugin also requires Elementor. It suits many kinds of sites, including blogs, portfolios, corporate pages, online stores, restaurant sites, magazines and personal CVs, where you might use animation for feature highlights, process steps or calls to action.
Best for
- Bloggers and magazine sites adding visual interest to posts
- Agencies, portfolios and corporate sites highlighting features or processes
- Online stores and restaurant sites wanting animated calls to action
Features
Large animation library
Browse thousands of ready-to-use Lottie animations from professional designers and pick ones that match the style and purpose of your site.
Works in the block editor
Add and manage animations directly inside the Gutenberg editor, so they sit alongside your other content blocks with no coding required.
Lightweight JSON format
Animations use the JSON-based Lottie format, which keeps file sizes small compared with GIFs or video while keeping the visuals crisp.
Playback controls
Use autoplay and effects options to decide how each animation behaves, from subtle background motion to more noticeable interactive displays.
Responsive and retina ready
Animations scale to fit different screen sizes and stay sharp on high-resolution and mobile displays, giving visitors a consistent look across devices.
Two-click selection
Find an animation and insert it into your page in about two clicks through a simple selection interface connected to the library.
