Animated arrows for Canva
Flowline generates animated arrow and connector graphics as true vector Lottie files with transparent backgrounds, and inserts them straight into your Canva design. Twenty-five styles, your colours, your sizing — no video editor, no downloads, no stock library.
Every style, playing live
These are not screenshots or recordings. Each animation below was generated by the same engine the app runs when it inserts into your design, at the app's default settings, and is playing here as the exact file Canva would receive. The chequerboard is showing through the transparent background.

How it works
Pick a style
Choose from twenty-five animation styles — straight draws, flowing dots, circuit routes, branching splits, neon glows.
Set it up
Colour, length, thickness, direction and speed, plus arc depth and bend count where the style supports them. A live preview plays as you adjust.
Add to your design
One click drops the animation onto your page as a transparent Lottie you can position, scale and layer like any other element.
Who it's for
Presentations and pitch decks
Direct attention between points on a slide instead of relying on a static line.
Flowcharts and process diagrams
Show a sequence actually flowing — circuit routes and branch splits are built for exactly this.
Tutorials and explainers
Point at the thing you are describing, with movement that survives being scaled down.
Social posts and ads
Motion that loops cleanly and keeps its edges crisp at any size, because it is vector rather than video.
What you are buying
Flowline sells credits: a one-time purchase of a consumable pack. There is no subscription and nothing recurring.
- Five Standard styles are free forever, with no credit cost and no account required beyond your Canva login.
- Thirty free credits are granted automatically the first time you open the app.
- One credit inserts one Advanced style. Credits are only spent on a successful insert.
How the graphics are made and licensed
Every animation is generated on demand by our own engine, which builds the geometry parametrically from the settings you choose and emits a Lottie document directly. Nothing is drawn from a stock library, a third-party asset marketplace, or a generative model — the output is a mathematical construction produced by first-party code that we wrote and own.
Graphics you generate are yours to use royalty-free in personal and commercial work, including client projects and paid advertising, for as long as you like. You may not resell or redistribute the generated files on their own as a stock asset or template product. Credits themselves are tied to your Canva account and are not transferable.
Questions
Can I use these commercially?
Yes. Generated graphics are royalty-free for commercial use, including client work. See the licensing note above and the terms.
Do credits expire?
No. Credits stay on your account until you spend them.
What happens if an insert fails?
The credit is returned automatically. Credits are charged on a successful insert and refunded by the server if anything goes wrong afterwards — see the refund policy.
Is this a subscription?
No. Packs are one-time purchases and there is no recurring billing of any kind.
When can I install it?
The app is currently in Canva's app review queue. It is not yet publicly listed, and nothing on this site is purchasable until it is.
