Appealing is an online showcase of UI animations found in real apps. During a recent project I was surprised how difficult it was to find examples of mobile UI animation on the internet. The majority of Google results lead to blog posts showcasing examples found on Dribbble, which as awesome as they are, are usually created in After Effects and without the limitations that face live apps or working code. I started to find and capture examples myself and quickly built an extensive collection of recordings. Instead of leaving them to grow dusty on my desktop I decided to create a blog to showcase them online; a place for people to visit and gain inspiration. Currently, there are over 100 UI animation examples on Appealing, and the list is constantly growing. Please check it out, bookmark it for future reference, and of course, any app suggestions are very welcome!

@michael_hood Thanks, Michael! My goal was to create an animated version of Pttrns, so that is great to hear.

@engmsaleh @michael_hood Capptivate was cool but hasn't had any new posts in over a year. I will be updating Appealing on a regular basis.

Awesome eyecandy. Now how do we add motion like this to our apps? Apple sure isn't helping. As they don't support Rich interactive motion. I just spent 2 weeks solving this: the result can be seen here: http://stylekit.org/blog/2016/03... The entire animation engine is super tiny: https://github.com/eonist/swift-... Its for OSX but https://medium.com/@victorbaro wants to port this to IOS. Just thought id some context. Not trying to plug here.

Good stuff there, but i wish it covered more uncommon apps or a special section for it. Most of the apps covered here are the ones we use everyday

@giridharvc7 Thanks for your feedback, Giridhar! I am indeed now looking at the more uncommon/ up and coming apps. Over the next few days I will be posting examples from apps that I have recently found here on Product Hunt.

@jackw_young Check out IFTTT's Onboarding, they also released their onboarding animation kit opensource, cool stuff. https://github.com/IFTTT/JazzHands
