Hey everyone! 👋 I know so many of you have been admiring those super cute charging animations, especially the Ghibli Wara Wara ones, and guess what? I finally cracked the code on how to get them using the ClipTone app! As a total beginner myself when it comes to phone customizations, I promise this tutorial will walk you through everything step-by-step. No more boring 'charging' screen for my iPhone, and yours won't be either! First things first, you'll need the ClipTone app downloaded on your iPhone. It's really intuitive, but the trickiest part for me was linking it to the Shortcuts app—don't worry, I'll guide you through that! You'll also need a video you want to use. For my adorable Ghibli Wara Wara animation, I actually downloaded a short clip from TikTok. Just make sure the video is saved to your camera roll. Part 1: Getting Your Perfect Animation Video Ready Before we dive into ClipTone, pick your favorite short video! If you're going for the Ghibli Wara Wara vibe like me, search on TikTok for 'Ghibli charging animation' or 'Wara Wara charging' and find a clip you love. Use a reliable video downloader (there are many free options online or apps) to download your video directly to your phone's photo Library. Make sure it's a short, loopable clip for the best effect. Part 2: Setting Up Your Video in the ClipTone App Open the ClipTone app. Once you're in, you'll usually see an option to "upload video" or access your media. Upload Video: Select the video you just downloaded or any video from your photo library. ClipTone will process it, and you can trim it if needed to get the perfect segment. Save it to your ClipTone Library. This makes it ready for the next step! You can even adjust sound settings here if you want your animation to play with audio or stay silent. Part 3: Automating Your Charging Animation with Shortcuts This is where the magic happens, and it's super easy once you know how! Go to your iPhone's 'Shortcuts' app. This comes pre-installed on every iPhone. Tap on 'Automation' at the bottom of the screen. Create Personal Automation: Tap the '+' icon in the top right corner, then select 'Create Personal Automation'. Scroll down and select 'Charger'. This tells your iPhone when to trigger the animation. Choose 'Is Connected'. This means the automation will run every time your phone is connected to power. You can also tick 'Run Immediately' and untick 'Notify When Run' if you don't want a notification every time it plays. Tap 'Next'. Add Action: Tap 'Add Action'. In the search bar, type 'ClipTone'. You should see an option like 'Open Charging Animation' or 'Play ClipTone'. Select this. Choose Your Animation: Tap on the 'Animation' field within the ClipTone action. This will let you select the specific video you uploaded to the ClipTone app library earlier. Make sure you pick your cute Ghibli Wara Wara! Tap 'Done'. And that's it! Now, every time you connect to power, your phone will automatically play your chosen ClipTone charging animation! I was so thrilled when I saw my cutest charging animation pop up for the first time. It really adds a personalized touch to my phone. For beginners, this is such a fun and simple way to customize your device. If you encounter any issues, double-check that you've allowed ClipTone access to your photos and that the Shortcuts automation is set to 'Run Immediately' and 'Open Charging Animation'. Give it a try, and let me know which adorable animation you picked!
