- What the reviewers say -
"Strip Designer is worth every penny it costs, and then some. I would pay a couple more bucks for Lifestrips. It's stable, it's easy, it's fun, and for all that I couldn't come up with anything witty for my comic text, I love the look of my comics. Someone with a better imagination than I apparently have could really do fabulous things with this app. I rate it a solid five stars out of five.", Pamela Flora, iPhoneography

"We were simply blown away by this application and the detail that has gone into the editing options and templates. We enjoyed the fact that a comic can be created very easily with photos and simple text effects, however there is real opportunities to really drill down into the editing options where the user can explore the apps true potential. There are many comic strip applications available on the Appstore but this is by far one of the best and great value for money. This app comes highly recommended by The Educational Appstore.", - See more at: http://www.educationalappstore.com/app/strip-designer#sthash.2KqjbU5Q.dpuf"

This app is ergonomic gold and not only does it actually encourage comic strip design but the retouch feature is out of this world!!!I use it over Gimp and Photoshop as a mobile retoucher and the blur strength doesn’t give me headaches to adjust. I even use it to fix those blasted insane fingers and other artifacts in Midjourney. The color picker too is marvelously argument-free. Since buying the app I have had it crash maybe once and that was I think on a 10 with literally 28 apps open. This is actually my favorite app out of the hundred that I have and more hundreds that I’ve purchased. The ergonomics are actually tested by somebody who cares about the user experience instead of in theory on a big monitor. I am surprised that there are only 50 5- star ratings.If you are tired of creative/graphic apps that only torment you and ask for in-app purchases and otherwise try their best to irk, please get this app. Support this amazing effort.
This app is best in its class!

App is absolutely top in its class. Tried them all. New features are excellent.For ease of use and functionality this app is the best in its class. The others I tried were clunky and difficult to use but I prefer landscape mode and the 'draw on' capability of the pics. In future updates I would like to see a 'frames' section added where we can choose nice borders like the old Picture-It by Microsoft on a pc. Love being able to use an Apple pencil as well. A bit more on the draw options would be nice but being able to use the Camera Roll to upload provides workarounds. App remains well supported and not restricted to 'square' like some others that do frames but do not have landscape mode. Very necessary for photo art or incorporating originals.
Can’t live without it

I have been using this app since childhood, and now I’m 19 and this app has been there for me throughout my entire journey as an artist and storyteller. I’ve used it to make comic series, concept art, storyboards, backgrounds, and posters for events. This app has been my outlet for improving my graphic design and drawing skills. I love the options that you have in this app and how easy it is to make what you want. Every update feels like an improvement building on what already works. Just wanted to say how grateful I am to have this app because it has changed my life for the better.Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for something to get them started with comic making or graphic design.
Intuitive and lots of features

I got another app (comic strip, I believe) that has a ton of great reviews but it absolutely sucks—crashes, you can’t “go back” because it just cycles you through the menu. this one is great—it is easy to use and has tons of layers so you can do a lot of stuff on it similar to powerpoint. I don’t think it has a “photo to cartoon” filter though—would be nice but overall, 5 stars!
