MOBO_Utils

MOBO_Utils lists compatibility with After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020, along with CC 2019 and CC 2018, so both recent and older releases are covered. Version 1.6, dated September 22, 2025, addressed an APNG_Export issue that occurred when the output path contained non-Latin characters such as Russian, Chinese, Korean or Japanese. If you run one of the listed versions, you should be on supported ground; for anything outside that range, check the developer's page for the latest details.

MOBO_Utils includes GIF_Export, an output module that lets you export GIF files directly from After Effects; it was added in the 1.5 release on January 11, 2024. The same collection also offers APNGExport for APNG output, and version 1.6 fixed an APNG_Export bug tied to output paths that contained non-Latin characters. Both sit alongside the other single-purpose utilities in the bundle, so these export options come as part of the wider set rather than as standalone downloads.

MOBO_Utils is discounted 50% for students and faculty, according to Motion Boutique, with more information linked on the developer's page. Beyond that offer, this catalog lists the plugin as free, so you should confirm current licensing and any eligibility details directly with the developer before downloading. The collection is described as ever-evolving and adds native utilities over time, so checking the developer's page also keeps you current on what the latest version covers.

MOBO_Utils bundles AddPathVertices, a utility that adds vertices to selected paths, working on both masks and shapes; it arrived in the 1.3 release on June 2, 2022. The collection groups it with other single-purpose tools like MultiDuplicate, SelectSameProperties, CopyColor, CollectFonts, BakeAllExpressions and RemoveAllExpressions. Each is built as a minimal, native utility aimed at bridging functional gaps in After Effects, so you pick the specific tool you need rather than working from one broad panel.

MOBO_Utils has received Apple Silicon and M1-related fixes across its history. Version 1.4 (April 3, 2023) resolved an M1 Mac issue affecting AddPathVertices, BakeAllExpressions, CollectFonts and MultiDuplicate on the latest AE 2023, and version 1.2.3 fixed an M1 compatibility issue with Copy Color. Apple Silicon compatibility was also noted around the 1.2 release for AE 2022. For details on your specific machine and After Effects version, the developer's page is the place to confirm.
