The import of .SVG is broken. The imported SVG has all of the objects invisible and there is no way to make them visible. Changing opacity does nothing. Switching visibility does nothing. The file structure is broken and unrecognizable from what was present in the app where it was made. The Figma plugin also broken and "finds" issues that do not exist. So far the only feature that works perfectly fine in this suite of apps - is counting how many files did you upload and the payment flow.

What is LottieFiles?
Easily add high-quality animation to any native app.
Lottie is a library for Android, iOS, Web, and Windows that parses 
Adobe After Effects animations exported as json with 
Bodymovin and renders them natively on mobile and on the web!
Flexible After Effects features We currently support solids, shape layers, masks, alpha mattes, trim paths, and dash patterns. And we’ll be adding new features on a regular basis.
Manipulate your animation any way you like You can go forward, backward, and — most importantly — you can program your animation to respond to any interaction.
Small file sizes Bundle vector animations within your app without having to worry about multiple dimensions or large file sizes. Alternatively, you can decouple animation files from your app’s code entirely by loading them from a JSON API.
Comments and Reviews
Absolutely abhorrent and handicapped format that cannot do:
Struggles with:
Resulting files are very difficult to edit in text editor. Resulting files can be very large (~300MB if some shape/behavior modifier animation is baked).
Avoid at all costs and use something else. SMIL SVG's for simplistic animations for example. GSAP, Anime.js, ThreeJS for implementing more complex animations. Rive as a non-free non-opensource alternative.
