Introduction
The Loading Overlay Animations plugin lets you display engaging animated overlays on groups or elements within your Bubble application. These overlays improve user experience by visually signaling that a process (such as data fetch, form submission, or workflow execution) is in progress.
You can fully customize the overlay animation—including its style, color, duration, text, and even an uploaded image. Once the animation completes, the plugin triggers an event, allowing you to continue workflows seamlessly.
