A familiar evening

It goes like this

1

You set the headline

The font is right. The size is right. The layout is done.

C

Nice! Can the title animate in?

2

Then someone asks

"Just a few seconds of motion." It never takes a few seconds.

What if text just moved?

Pick a preset, press play, export. All inside Figma.

01 Start

Type it, or take the text you already have

Type a headline, a label or a quote. Or select text layers in Figma and bring them in with their font, size and color kept.

Logos and icons work too: PNG, JPG, WebP and SVG, drawn sharp at high resolution. Or start from one of 26 templates like product launch, logo and tagline, event, countdown, testimonial and stats.

02 Move it

Pick a preset, or drag effects on

41 one-click presets, 31 for text and 10 for logos. Each one is a complete story: in, loop, out.

Prefer to build it yourself? Drag effects onto your text: marquee, word swap, odometer counter, 3D roll, mask reveal, tracking in, highlighter, blinking cursor, typewriter, stretch in, bounce and glitch. Pick an enter, a loop and an exit, and watch it on the timeline.

03 Make it yours

Style it like your brand

Solid, gradient or outline fill. Outline, shadow and glow. Any Google Font.

Bend the text into an arc, a circle or a wave. With a layer selected, the plugin shows only the effects and presets that work on it.

04 Send it

Export real Figma Motion, not just a video

With Pro, every letter becomes an editable layer with real keyframes on your Figma Motion timeline. Change the font or the words later and the animation stays.

Need something simpler? Export a GIF that plays inside Figma, a video, a PNG or a web embed you can paste into a site.
