FAQ

Quick answers

What images make good crying emojis?+

Use one clear face, mascot, pet, or character. A simple shape and visible eyes help the crying expression read at emoji size.

Can I make a crying Discord emoji?+

Yes. Upload the image you upload, run crying mode, then export small enough for Discord's emoji upload limits.

Does crying mode use credits?+

Yes. Crying is a Super Animation mode. Use a credit pack for occasional 3-frame Standard runs or Pro for 6-frame High, 12-frame Ultra, Studio image creation, and monthly credits.

How can I make the result more readable?+

Crop tightly, use a high-contrast subject, remove distracting backgrounds, and test the animation at the size your chat app displays it.
