Questions

Is there also a post template?

Yes. Use the X post template for a single post image and the reply template for a thread.

Can I turn it into a video?

Yes. Press Preview to watch the messages appear one by one, then Record to save the conversation as an MP4 on the web or in the iPhone app. Use image export when you only need a still frame.

Is this template free?

You can open and edit it for free; previews show a mimicly watermark. Sign in for three free clean exports shared across images and recordings, or choose Pro (monthly or a one-time lifetime purchase) for unlimited clean exports.

Is Mimicly connected to X?

No. Mimicly is an independent editor. It does not sign in to X, send messages or read your account. Everything in the scene is written by you; use it for fictional scenes, examples and storyboards.
