What it is
Motionleap turns still photos into moving images and videos on Android and iOS. Users can direct motion with arrows, keep selected areas still with anchor points, or freeze parts of an image with a brush. Automated effects can animate water or replace a sky with sunsets and moving clouds. Camera effects include Tilt, Zoom, and Dolly, with controls for speed, direction, and style. The app also includes a text-to-image AI generator for creating artwork from written descriptions. Exports include video, GIF, Live Wallpaper, and multiple social media formats. Motionleap has a free plan with some editing tools at no cost; additional Pro tools require an in-app purchase. The listed “Motionleap unlimited access” purchase is $35.99 as a one-time purchase. Commercial-use terms vary: iOS projects may be used commercially with permission to use the images, while Android projects containing the Dusk, Blue, Aurora, or Fantasy Sky packs cannot be used commercially. Apple’s listing says identifiers may be used for cross-company tracking and lists several data types that may be linked to users.
