Mango Animate Whiteboard Animation Maker

Mango Animate Whiteboard Animation Maker, also called Mango WM, is a Windows application for creating whiteboard and hand-drawn style animation videos. It includes customizable templates for business, education, and personal projects, plus a media library of characters, SVG images, icons, and shapes. The editor provides a multi-track timeline, captions, background music, sound effects, and voice recording. Users can select male or female hand styles in different sizes and gestures, and the product lists hundreds of transition, entrance, and exit effects. Output options include online video, offline video, and GIF; offline video supports six formats, and full HD is listed. The download is listed for Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, and Vista. The product page marks lively 3D characters as “Coming Soon.” Free is listed, along with Mango WM PRO at $59, paid once. Professional is listed at $99 a month, billed as a one-time payment; Enterprise is $299 a month, also billed as a one-time payment. The maker says passwords are irreversibly encrypted and payment card details are handled by payment processors rather than stored in its database or servers.
