Favorite animation program except for UI

I’ve been using callipeg since April 2021 and I’ve been really enjoying it the whole time! Unfortunately, a recent update changed the positions of the icons on the toolbar and has put the skip forward/backward frame buttons in a position that causes a lot of uncomfortable strain in my left hand to the point that I’m not sure I can use this program regularly anymore as I have to be extremely cautious about straining my wrists. This program has been extremely nice as it’s allowed me to be able to animate on my ipad away from my desk, so not being able to comfortably flip through my frames without hurting myself is disheartening. If the icons could be moved up the toolbar so that they sit where your hand comfortably rests again that would be incredible. This is the only animation program on iPad I’ve been able to find that allows me to quickly flip through frames, which is important to me as it makes my animations significantly more fluid. Sorry for a bit of a long review, I don’t usually give app reviews but this is a problem that’s really put a wrench in my ability to work and it’s been a bummer.

Import audio problem specific to 1 project file?

Hey today when I tried importing an audio file into my project but it seemed like it was glitched. Like whenever I tried to import an audio file into it, it crashes and even if I press the mute button/try to delete the audio layer it crashes. At first I thought it was the audio import function in general was broken however I tested it out on a different project I was relived to see that it worked perfectly fine but also a little annoyed at the same time since this one animation I was just starting to work on after days of procrastinating :/ also another thing, I decided to just deal with it and create a new audio layer in the same project with the glitched out audio layer and that one worked perfectly fine. I can’t even move the audio layer to the bottom or top so it would be out of my workspace. I even restarted my device to see if it was just my device acting up but no, I still have it. Also there’s a weird thin line and small 3 black dots underneath it in the first ‘frame’ of the audio timeline. I hope this could be just a one-off thing, I’m just a little wary about it happening again in the future the next time I try to import audio Thank you

Update: I realized not even adding a new audio layer will prevent it from crashing if I just use the new one instead of the broken one, when the project plays to the end, it always crashes and undos my new audio layer so there’s no point on adding a new one in the first place :/

Some issues, but really positive!

I really love this app and it’s versatility to allow some high-quality animations to be made. There’s tons of tools and modifiers that allow you to have some seriously professional grade content.. and when you fully purchase the app, though a bit costly, it’s totally worth it considering you get all the bells and whistles that make the app rival even the best of most animation software… and it’s still getting better too!

There’s a new bug that I encountered that could be tuned. With animation layers, when you add a new frame in the child layer that’s being manipulated.. onion skin will use the original location of where you drew the previous drawing before adding the transform. This means when you enable onion skin, the onion skin doesn’t actually take the last frame where the the character should’ve moved in the transform. I’ve found a way around it by duplicating a drawing to a different layer, but it’s a bit of a hassle.

Either way, bugs aside, this is a top tier app. You should definitely try it, considering it’s free for the base version and it still works great
