(Original )Information
What do you like best about LottieFiles?

LottieFiles is different from its competitors in the simplest way of using it with functionality. The project is at its highest level in a very simple, intuitive interface where designers and developers can find, edit, and use animations easy enough. This is all very convenient with a great large collection of ready-to-use animations that can save time by loads when putting such animations into any project.

Moreover, Lottie animations are very light in weight so do not slow down a website or an application which is an important advantage when comparing with traditional GIFs or videos. Cross-platform compatibility is also one important advantage when using this feature for it can support cross-integration with iOS, Android, and web frameworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LottieFiles?

Although LottieFiles is an extremely powerful tool, like everything else, it too has its downsides. Advanced personalization can only be done sometimes, but one might rely on such software as Adobe After Effects for more complex animation - another step into the workflow.

Premium content and features are on a higher rate compared to competitors, which limits the individual or smaller team with a tight budget. The platform is nice, but the user can feel there is a curve of learning when he becomes a new user and unfamiliar with concepts about animation or JSON-based formats.

In addition, the animations sometimes does not work on all platforms and browsers at times and even need some manual fine-tuning or debugging to perfect the works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LottieFiles solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being a designer myself, it simplifies the workflow in adding the animations with minimal coding in easy integration with frameworks that include React, iOS, and Android. LottieFiles also offers a number of available pre-made animations that improve project timelines and reduce loads on teams requiring quick but quality visuals.

So, in contrast to long pages website while working with Lottie lightweight and scalable animations mean quick loading with clear visions irrespective of the screen size of the user and keeps the experience in the most seamless and engaging moments that do not compromise performance as compared to heavy gifs & videos.

Its collaborative tools make sharing and gathering feedback easy, hence streamlining communication and making the workflow more efficient. LottieFiles also offers to test and preview animations on other devices for rendering consistently on different platforms. This provides much more productivity and saves a lot of time and effort while bringing out an even better user experience in the final result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LottieFiles?

LottieFiles is fantastic because it makes animations lightweight, interactive, and easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LottieFiles?

While Lottie animations are customizable, making extensive changes requires After Effects knowledge, and customizing directly through JSON can be complicated. If the animation wasn’t created with customization in mind, modifying it later can be challenging Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LottieFiles solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reducing File Size and Load Time: Traditional animations like GIFs or videos are often heavy and can slow down an app. LottieFiles uses JSON-based vector animations, which are lightweight and scalable, ensuring fast load times and a smooth user experience. This is particularly beneficial for mobile and web apps where performance is essential.

Simplifying Cross-Platform Animation: Creating animations that work seamlessly across Android, iOS, web, and desktop used to be a complex task. LottieFiles makes it easy to integrate a single animation file across multiple platforms with consistent quality, which saves developers time and ensures a cohesive user experience.
