Question 1

What does this converter change?

Accepted Answer

It rewrites the dotLottie archive structure between the v1 and v2 package formats so the same animation can be tested in tooling that expects either version.

Question 2

Are files uploaded to a server?

Accepted Answer

No. Conversion runs in the browser, so the selected .lottie file stays on your device.

Question 3

When should I use v1 or v2?

Accepted Answer

Use the version required by the player, editor, or integration you are testing. v2 is the newer package format, while some existing pipelines may still expect v1 archives.

Question 4

Will this edit my animation artwork?

Accepted Answer

No. The tool converts the package format and preserves the animation assets inside the archive.
