# FAQ & Known Limitations
Answers to common Lottie AI questions about generation time, export formats, credits, and current known limitations.

## FAQ

### How long does a generation take?

Turbo usually takes up to 2 minutes, and Quality about 3 to 15 minutes. Quality keeps running if you close the tab. Times vary and aren't guarantees.

### What formats can I export?

dotLottie, Lottie JSON, Animated GIF, MP4, WebM, Poster (PNG), PNG sequence, Sprite sheet, Animated PNG, Animated WebP, MOV (ProRes 4444), SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, and Frolic. See [Export](/en/lottie-ai/export) for details.

### How is Lottie AI different from Motion Copilot?

[Motion Copilot](/en/creator/13_ai-tools/motion-copilot) works inside Lottie Creator on layers in a Creator project. Lottie AI is a standalone app that generates a new animation from a prompt and exports it as code. You don't need Creator to use it.

### Do I need a LottieFiles account?

You can explore lottie.ai without one. To generate, sign in with your LottieFiles account, or create one on lottie.ai.

### Does adjusting Controls use credits?

No. Adjusting Controls is always free. Reprompts and refinements use 5 credits each.

### Can I animate my own logo or image?

Yes, as an SVG, one per prompt. PNG and JPG aren't supported yet. Use **Add context or attachment** → **Add SVG**, then describe the motion.

## Known limitations

- Changing specific angles or positions through a reprompt after the first generation is not always reliable. Use the Controls panel or edit the code for exact values.
- Quality usually takes about 3 to 15 minutes. Don't treat this as a maximum duration.
