VIMAGE is an app for making cinemagraphs, still pictures in which only one part moves. It is now published by ZipoApps on the App Store and is also available on Google Play.

What VIMAGE is for

You start from a photo and decide what should move. The Flow tool makes water run or clouds drift in a set direction, while the Stretch tool pulls an area to create background motion. The sky feature detects the sky for you and swaps it for an animated preset such as a sunset or passing clouds. On top of that you can layer effects, filters, text and sound, adjust brightness and contrast, then export the result as a video or a GIF. There is also a built-in community where people post their work.

Who is it for?

VIMAGE suits hobby photographers and content creators who want moving visuals for Instagram or TikTok without learning a video editor. The free version is fine for trying it out, but it shows ads, limits the effects and adds a watermark. Paid plans, monthly or yearly depending on the platform, remove those limits.

Download VIMAGE safely

Get VIMAGE from Google Play or the App Store. On Android the developer account is named “Photo & Video Editors – Instant Solution”, but it is the app’s original listing. Avoid “Pro” APK files shared elsewhere.
