Got questions?
Frequently asked questions
What animation styles are available?+
Lampdra Animate offers particle effects (snow, bubbles, leaves, stars), gradient animations, parallax motion, slow zoom and more. New effects are added regularly.
Does animation affect my subject?+
No. Animation is applied only to the background. Your subject remains completely still and sharp in the foreground throughout.
What formats can I export?+
You can export your animated background as a looping GIF (ideal for social media and email) or as an MP4 video file (ideal for websites, presentations and video editing).
Is Lampdra Animate really free?+
Yes, completely free. Lampdra Animate is supported by a short ad shown before you download your result. That ad revenue keeps the service free for everyone. You never need to pay, sign up or share your email.
Are my images private?+
Lampdra Animate processes everything in your browser. Your image is never uploaded to any server. We cannot see, access or store your photos. Everything stays entirely on your device.
