Ratings and Reviews
Pretty good
I really like this app, it allows me to have a really nice work flow when planning and animating.
That being said, it isn’t perfect. I don’t find it suitable for final touches. The brushes are pretty nice, but not very smooth for some reason. You can’t rotate or move the canvas, and I find it a bit small for full screen animations.
I really like the updates that are chosen to be invested in, and still recommend buying this app, it really allows for fast animation testing and has a really nice feel. Being able to export as a psd really helps to finalize in another program.
In my eyes, it’s the best animation app available for the iPad right now.
A lot of problems to even try and use this app for projects
I have a iPad Pro from 2018 and this app is very laggy, from switching layer to just open the brush setting. Even worst, sometimes the app decides to mess up my work and stars pasting frames on top of frames which is unacceptable even for a free app. I believe this app has potencial, but there’s a lot of performance and software problems that have to be solved.
Developer Response ,
Hi Petter, thank you for reporting the problem, we will check on the problem soon. Can you go to the "Settings" in the app, and tap "Report a Bug" to report the problem? The report will include a user log that helps us diagnose the issue.
Supper laggy
App is supper laggy when I draw fast with apple pencil.
I cant use it at all, its also super basic, lacks a timeline for how long each frame lasts, so you cant do long animations where the same frame is repeated for a long time
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your suggestion about the timeline display to the backlog. If you setup up a 12FPS, each frame last for 1/12 second. To repeat a frame, please tap on the frame on the timeline, and select "Repeat" and enter the number for the repetition. You can also do this in the frame viewer.
