Introduction

We’ve thoughtfully crafted the LOKLiK App to ensure you can focus solely on designing your projects. Every page and element in this app is designed to help you work smarter, faster, and with greater confidence. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced creator, this app is your ultimate tool for streamlining DIY projects.

One of the standout features of the LOKLiK App is its ability to seamlessly connect with HTVRONT’s innovative lineup of machines. From the DTF Printer (D1) to the Vinyl Cutter (iCraft), Laser Engraving Machine (iEngrave), and Paint by Numbers Machine (iPaint), the app allows you to access and control all these devices from one centralized platform. This integration empowers you to switch effortlessly between different creative tools, making your DIY experience smoother and more versatile than ever.

Here’s how to download and start using the app as a beginner. Let’s unlock the full potential of your creative journey with LOKLiK!

You can download and install the LOKLiK app on a MAC, IOS, Windows PC, tablet, or smartphone. Start by visiting the official LOKLiK website and downloading it from the downloads section. Click “Install” to run the downloaded file, and accept the license agreement to complete the setup.

Input a username and password to create a new account. This will help you save projects and material presets in the cloud, sync projects across devices, and enable you to make a premium subscription.

In the connection settings, connect the app to a LOKLiK or HTVRONT machine using WIFI or a USB cable, and you are ready to start working on your new project.

Every section of the software is designed to make it easier for you to design and seamlessly access all your projects.

This is the first screen after signing in. Here, you can connect the app to your laser engraving machine and manage it using the “My device” section. 

To add a new device connection, click on the plus sign at the top right corner of the section. 

To reconnect to a previously used device, just click on “My device” and select from the list.

This section has 5 of the most popular material categories. Tapping on either category will open another page with pictures with related content that you can use as your designs. Below this section, there are features such as “most liked”, “Popular”, and “New”. Here you can further explore more designs and find new inspirations for your projects.

This is the page where you will spend most of your time, designing and editing your design. To start, tap the canvas button to open a blank workspace. There are free tools such as Make, Save, Upload, Text, Layer, Position, Edit Point, and Shape. Some of the premium tools are AI Drawing and Pen.

If your canvas is empty, you will get a heads-up to upload an image first.

The main tools are “Add to Canvas”, “Search”, “Favourites”, and “Filters”. Starring lets you save favourite images. The Filter button helps you narrow down your search to find exactly what you need based on the price, theme, and operation type.

Extra processing is required if the images require vectorization before adding them to the canvas. Tap on the add button, set the color tolerance and clear color blocks before using as your design.

For those that don’t require vectorization, just tap on the add button, and the system will take care of the rest.

All your content and settings are stored here.

These are some of the buttons’ functions.

Here is how to utilize all the pages to create and cut(vinyl cutter) or engrave (laser engraving machine) a design using the app.

Create and sign in to your LOKLiK account, then connect the software to the device using a USB cable or wifi.

Press the “New Project” button to start working on a blank canvas. The workspace should be the same size as your material and machine bed.

Import an image from the device’s storage or generate one using the AI feature on the app. 

You can also choose a ready-made template from the “Discover” page. Edit the design by adding shapes and text, resizing, moving, rotating, and aligning all the elements in place.

Assign roles to each element, either to cut, engrave, or score. Choose a material preset or manually input the settings for the operation.

In the connected laser engraving machine, load and secure your material, then conduct a frame test.

On the preview page, verify that everything is in order, including the correct image size and orientation (if necessary), and that the order of operations is accurate.
