Rive has become a standard tool for real-time, vector-based, interactive animations across major engines like Unity, Unreal, Flutter, React, and Web. Adding native support for .riv files and Rive State Machines inside Lens Studio would unlock a new level of dynamic UI, micro-interactions, and lightweight AR motion graphics without relying on heavy sprite sheets or video textures.

This integration would empower creators to build responsive, scalable, and high-performance 2D/2.5D animations—perfect for HUDs, menus, onboarding flows, and interactive AR elements—while keeping project sizes small and runtime performance high.

Native Rive support would bring Lens Studio in line with modern real-time engines and significantly expand creative possibilities for socialAR..
