What Is Alight Motion?
Alight Motion is a mobile motion graphics and animation app popular with TikTok and Instagram creators. It's one of the few mobile apps that supports keyframe animation, visual effects, and multi-layer compositing — features usually found only in desktop software like After Effects.
Free vs. Premium
- Free: Full editing capabilities, keyframe animation, blending modes, color correction — with watermark and ads
- Premium: No watermark, no ads, premium effects library, additional fonts and elements
The free version is genuinely powerful — all core animation and editing features work without paying. Premium is primarily about removing the watermark and accessing extra visual effects. If the watermark doesn't bother you (or your content is for personal use), free works fine.
Free Alternatives for Motion Graphics
- CapCut (Free) — no watermark, keyframe animation, trending effects, auto-captions
- VN Video Editor (Free) — no watermark, multi-layer editing, speed ramping
- DaVinci Resolve (Free, Desktop) — professional-grade with Fusion VFX compositor
- Blender (Free, Desktop) — full 3D animation and motion graphics, open source
- Canva Video (Free tier) — simple animations and social media templates
What Happens After Canceling
- Premium features work until end of billing period
- App reverts to free version with watermark and ads
- Your projects remain in the app and are still editable
- Premium effects used in existing projects may show lock icons
- Previously exported videos keep their quality
💡 Pro tip: Upload your bank statement to JustCancel to find Alight Motion and every other app store subscription draining your account — most people have multiple editing apps billing simultaneously.
