Toonly
Toonly is an animation and cartoon creation tool for macOS that enables users to produce animated videos and cartoons with a minimal learning curve. It is designed for content creators, educators, marketers and small studios who want to create animated explainer videos, tutorials, social media content and promotional materials without professional animation software expertise. The app provides a library of characters, props and scenes, along with timeline-based editing and export capabilities.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent public information about Toonly's Apple Silicon support status or current development status. The bundle ID suggests it is a third-party macOS application, but search results were unavailable to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build exists, has been announced, or is in development. Contact the developer directly at their website or support channel to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned. If you rely on Toonly, this is worth clarifying now, since Intel-only builds will cease to function when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027). In the meantime, the app continues to run under Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon Macs, but that compatibility will not persist beyond late 2027. If native support is not planned, you may want to explore actively maintained native animation tools such as Blender (free, open-source, feature-rich but with a steep learning curve) or Synfig Studio (free, open-source, timeline-based) as contingencies.
