Post some code on how to change text dynamically. Been trying this for 2 days. Really hard to figure it.

Could you point me to some documentation or somewhere in the code where I can see how to use it.

It would be great help if you could post some example. I am using DictionaryTextProvider but no luck:
animationView.textProvider = DictionaryTextProvider(["**.Amount": "10 kr."])

@khawajafarooq A little late but I've had the same issue. Turns out you need to set the textProvider BEFORE setting the animation into your animationView. Works fine when you do it that way.

        let textProvider = DictionaryTextProvider(["Type": "HOWDY COWBOY"])
        lottieView.textProvider = textProvider
        lottieView.animation = yourAnimation
