A new way to create hand-drawn animation. So playful you’ll think it’s a toy, but it's secretly a robust app with a reimagined UI for animators and creators.
Taking inspiration from music creation tools, using Looom feels more like playing an instrument than operating software - exploring lines, shapes and colors through loopable time and rhythm. Looom is all about looping animation with a smile. It was designed for professionals and beginners of any age and is already being used by some influential indie animators.
A delightful environment to learn, experiment, practice and create drawn animation.
Wonderfully musical, Next-gen dynamic non-destructive workflow.
FLUID TIME
No first frame or last. Looom’s threads are independent in length and speed, always tweak-able.
INFINITE CANVAS
Lets you go as deep or as far as you want thanks to a completely resolution-independent vector engine.
OPEN-ENDED
Looom uses SVG as it’s native file format. Your work can be viewed in browsers and opened in desktop animation software.

Just started creating my first animation on this app, looking forward to it, love all the app you created, gave me a lot of sparks, haven’t seen apps that actually put a lot of creativity in it lately, please don’t stop updating this😎
So much potential
I’m an animator, web designer and 3D artist. This app has so much potential. The first killer feature I’d love to see is a way to access photos to ‘trace’ over. This may be a video, this could be an image. Don’t need to export the image or video ...as svg is perfect. I’d like to see unique IDs generated for each canvas output too, multiple loooms on a single page are clashing with styles on a webpage and it’s an easy fix. Ultimately being able to somehow bring the animations into blender would be fantastic too. We can import a svg already but the whole animation does not come in. There’s workarounds but still, lots of potential. Thank you for a very creative app
Fascinating concept
Absolutely incredible mental excursion. It makes me feel great creating something out of nothing. I am hopeful the developers persist and make this very unique app something that is useful as a business tool. I would love to be able to import background pictures and also create higher resolution files which are exportable instead of relying on a screen capture. In any case, I would back the developers for the time being! Thanks for the smiles.
Fun
Really fun little app, great concept but still a bit simple. Hopefully the developers continue to work on it!
Would love to have additional threads, or the option to have static layers.

The first time we were there I thought we would be able to get a little bit of of that stuff out of the house and we were just trying out some things to get it to be ready to use for our own place so that we could have it for the house and I think we would need to do some thing that was PREDICTED TEXT
P.S.
Great app
Potential
The mechanics of the app are a little unique, in a good way. But are not sensitive or accurate enough, it makes it frustrating trying to turn pages when it goes the wrong way every time. Itll flip through all the frames in the wrong direction no matter which way i swipe or where im swiping at. I wish there were more settings as well like being able to double tap your apple pen to switch to the eraser. Or being able to change pen size of just your pen and not the size of the lines youve already drawn entirely. I see a lot of potential in this app but it definitely needs some tweaking, im not sure how new it is either so ill give it that. Also please add layers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
So good
Unbelievably unique.
Thank You So Much
I had already enjoyed, Looom, a whole bunch on my iPad. Even if it is a little tough to get acclimated to in my opinion. But, I have to say that there is such a dearth of quality and competent animation applications available for the iPhone. Well, I just cannot tell you how grateful and happy I am that you made this program Universal. Thank you so much.
While I use both my iPad and iPhone a whole bunch. I find that I’m on my iPhone a lot more and it’s a lot easier, size-wise, to handle when working on something as intensive as creating animations. So, I look forward to trying to learn this great animation application a lot better now that it is on my iPhone as well. I’m so excited!
I was having a very cruddy day thus far and seeing that, Looom, is now Universal has really made my day so much better.
Again, I want to extend my sincere gratitude for not only making this wonderful program on the iPhone as well now. But also just for all of the hard work, time and passion that you no doubt put into building and maintaining this superb app. Thanks for all of the above and God bless.
P.S. If you’re wanting a powerful and fun animation application I would say that, Looom, is very much worth the asking price and I highly recommend it to animation newcomers and pros alike 👍🏻.
Good, but I wish it could download
Love the way it animates but I want to download it and upload it but there’s no feature that does that.
Still loooove this tool!
I love all the feature updates that have been added like images and auto frames.
The only thing I would love to see is a frame photo export, so you can export the individual frames as images! This would speed up my workflow a lot vs having to screenshot each frame.
Thanks for making such an innovative and intuitive tool!
