Chevrons down animated icon

Two chevrons drop one after the other and bounce, a friendly nudge to scroll down.

Edit this in Mosso

Try a look

Shown in a sample look. In Mosso it switches to your brand in one click.

Smooth motion. Confident and clear. Smooth moves with a gentle landing.

We read the colours and fonts from your home page. They stay in this browser.

The sample look, font and background are shared.

What it's good for

It is 400 × 400 pixels and 1.5 seconds long, and it is set to loop. Check the loop and contrast after editing. The background is transparent, so it sits on top of any page, photo or video.

The colours come from your brand kit. Change the timing in the editor.

How to use it on a website

  1. Pick your brand above, then download the dotLottie file.
  2. Add it to your site's files, for example as /animations/icon-chevrons-down.lottie.
  3. Paste the code where the animation should play.

Without code

  • Webflow: upload the Lottie JSON file in the Assets panel, then drag it onto your page.
  • Framer: add a Lottie component and give it the JSON file.
  • WordPress: use a Lottie block plugin and upload the JSON file.

Need it as a GIF or a video? Download the Lottie JSON and use the free Lottie to GIF or Lottie to MP4 converter, or check any file in the Lottie viewer.

For the steps in Mosso, read Export and put it on your site.

Use it in code

Download the file, then copy the code for your platform. It loops, and it holds a still frame for people who ask for less motion.

  1. Put icon-chevrons-down.lottie in your site's animations folder, so it loads from /animations/icon-chevrons-down.lottie.
  2. Paste this where it should play.
index.html
<script type="module" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@lottiefiles/dotlottie-wc@0.10.0/dist/dotlottie-wc.js"></script>

<dotlottie-wc src="/animations/icon-chevrons-down.lottie" autoplay loop data-still="0.656"
  role="img" aria-label="Chevrons down"
  style="display: block; width: 48px; height: 48px"></dotlottie-wc>

<script>
  // People who ask for less motion see a still frame: data-still is how far in, from 0 to 1.
  if (matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: reduce)').matches) {
    const players = document.querySelectorAll('dotlottie-wc');
    players.forEach((el) => el.removeAttribute('autoplay'));
    customElements.whenDefined('dotlottie-wc').then(() => players.forEach((el) => {
      const player = el.dotLottie;
      if (!player || !el.dataset.still) return;
      const show = () => player.setFrame(Math.round(Number(el.dataset.still) * (player.totalFrames - 1)));
      if (player.isLoaded) show();
      else player.addEventListener('load', show);
    }));
  }
</script>

Lottie in HTML: setup and common problems

Good to know

  • Play on hover or tap

    Icons feel best when they move in response to something. Load them paused and play them on hover or tap.

  • Size them like icons

    Show them at 24 to 48 pixels next to text, the same size as the rest of your icons.

  • Label the button, not the icon

    If the icon sits in a button, give the button a text label or an aria-label, and mark the animation itself with aria-hidden.

  • Respect reduced motion

    Some people ask their device for less motion. Check prefers-reduced-motion and show a still frame for them instead.

Questions

Is this chevrons down animation free?

Yes. A free account lets you download up to 50 library animations a day. You may edit these animations and use them in personal and commercial work, including client projects. Third party parts keep their own licences. Keep the supplied notices and credits when you share them. Mosso does not require a credit for its own work. The restriction on reselling Mosso templates does not limit rights granted by third party licences.

Can I change the colours?

Yes. Pick a sample look above to see how it changes. Open the Mosso project to edit its layers, timing and effect settings, and add your logo. Imported files may have fewer editable parts.

Should I download Lottie JSON or dotLottie?

dotLottie is the same animation in a zipped file, so it is smaller: this one is about 3.1 KB instead of 5.3 KB. Use it with the dotLottie players for the web, React, iOS and Android. Pick Lottie JSON when a tool asks for a .json file, like Webflow or lottie-web.

Can I get it as a GIF or a video?

Yes. Open it in Mosso and export a GIF, an MP4, a WebM video with a transparent background or PNG frames, all from the same project.

How do I play an icon on hover?

Load it with autoplay off and call play() when the pointer enters. Every Lottie player has a play method.
