Description

Animate allows you to create professional quality 2D animations on the iPad and Mac. Create animations on the go with iPadOS, or sit down with a powerful desktop computer with MacOS. Features of Animate include:

Canvas:
- Animate uses the custom-built Canvas7 drawing engine for rendering drawings.
- Make selections, draw with different tools, and import images.

Timeline:
- Scrub through your animation by sliding your finger across the top of the timeline!
- Break up your animation into layers and scenes for better organization.

Symbol Library:
- Keep a global collection of commonly used drawings for use in different projects.
- Create symbols using the selection tool.
- Useful for things like lip syncing or character designs.

Audio Library/Timeline:
- Import audio tracks and place them at different times throughout your animation.

Data:
- All Animate projects are saved using the ".animatedoc" file format.
- Export to .mov, .mp4, and image sequence.
- With the .animatedoc file format, you can open projects on iPad and Mac by simply choosing the "Import from File" option when creating a new project.

Not too bad

I mean it has a lot of brush sizes better then flip a clip and I think as a beggineer it's decent

It has potential and it's good.

The app is good but it feels like it needs more. I am not really a big fan of the rotate canvas because I just want to zoom in, but when I do it's always off angle.

Mon Monque ,

No progress at all.

Looking for a simple animation app and came across this. There's no manual, and the support link in the App store is broken. I can't get anything on the app to stay - I import a picture, it is there and then when I do anything it disappears. I draw a circle, do something, it disappears.

I admit that I am a beginner with these programs, but there is nothing intuitive about this one, and there is no help to be found. Looking elsewhere.
