Is it possible to create animations to implement help layout for android applications as in the figure :
Desired Effect : The hand image should move and point to an icon.Then an effect like ripple is created.
How could we implement animations like this ?
Yes you can do this by using the ShowCase view library from this github link, it works pretty well and it is very customizable

I am looking for the effect shown bellow
I can't name the effect so I am unable to look for any resources online. It looks like a ripple but when I search for that all I find are ripples on buttons etc.
Does anyone have any resources on the topic?
Thanks
Your searches aren't working because that's not a "ripple" effect, but a "reveal" effect!
Here's a guide:
https://developer.android.com/training/material/animations.html#Reveal
It is called the "Circular Reveal" animation and is detailed here: https://developer.android.com/training/material/animations.html
When i tap “Attach” button of Whatsapp then it displays menu with circular animation. This effect is known as Circular Reveal Animation and Ripple Effect. See
Learn Android Material Design - Create Circular Reveal Animation And Ripple Effect like Whatsapp. Full source code is attache with article, so you can easily download it.

I want to use the ShowcaseView library to create a tutorial, but for one stage of the tutorial I don't want to highlight anything with the circle. Is this possible with the API?
The main way to do this is to set the target as Target.NONE, an example of which is shown in the sample.
As #maxcanna points out here, you can call showcaseView.setShowcaseIndicatorScale(0) after creating the ShowcaseView to accomplish this.

What you are looking for is called "3D carousel view". We don't have much examples based on that. But still here is a very good link which has the source code for this sample.

But still you have to roll out things to make the changes and customize it.
Please check below links its help to how to implement this functionality(Cover Flow)

I have gridView which has lot of images and on clicking the edit button, I want the images to wobble just like : how to create iphone's wobbling icon effect?. Appreciate any pointers to solve this issue.
You can start off by modeling the wobble effect as a combination of Animations that Android provides. You can then extend an ImageView and use an AnimationSet of this combination of Animations.
You can create an xml that defines how the ImageView will be animated, load the animation in code referencing this xml and then apply it. A brief documentation here.
