# Magic Animator

> AI tool converting static Figma designs into animated UI components

Magic Animator is an AI-powered design tool by Lottielab that turns static Figma files into finished animations automatically. It removes manual keyframing by predicting and generating motion for complex UI elements like iOS Dynamic Island notifications and audio waves. The generated animations integrate into Lottielab for further tweaking and export.
