Flip Animation is one of the most featurepacked creative apps I’ve used on mobile. The new Rotoscope feature lets me import videos and trace them frame by frame, which is perfect for learning realistic motion and creating smooth animations.The app also includes more than 115 lessons covering the 12 principles of animation, walk cycles, effects, and mini scenes, so there’s always something new to practice. The drawing tools are accurate and responsive, playback is smooth, and the editor feels faster than ever.If you’re an animator, artist, or someone who wants to explore animation, I highly recommend this app. It feels like having a complete 2D animation studio right in your pocket.

I've always wanted to try frame-by-frame animation but found most desktop software too intimidating. This app makes the whole process incredibly straightforward. The included tutorials are perfect for getting the hang of the tools, and the onion skinning feature makes it so easy to track your previous frames. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn 2D animation on the go.
