How it works

  1. Upload a clear photo of the tattoo (healed or fresh, skin or flash sheet).
  2. Pick a motion style. Our AI keeps the skin still and moves only the ink.
  3. Watch the preview, then download the HD clip without watermark.

FAQ

What do I get before paying?

Your first 5-second preview, with a watermark. HD downloads without watermark start at $4.99 for 8 clips.

What photos work best?

A sharp, well-lit, close photo where the tattoo fills most of the frame. Animals, flowers, snakes, dragons and fine-line pieces animate best.

Will it change my skin or body?

No. The prompt locks the camera and skin; only the ink moves. Results vary, and failed clips are refunded.

What is not allowed?

Nudity, sexual content, minors, gore, hate symbols and photos of public figures. Every upload is checked first, and if the check is unavailable we refuse rather than guess.

Do you keep my photos?

Uploads are processed to make your clip and are not used for training. Finished clips are deleted from our cache within 14 days.

How is this different from other tools?

Most living-tattoo apps need an account, credits and long waits, or only add stock creatures on top of a selfie. AnimateTattoo animates the tattoo you already have and keeps your skin still.
