How do you even make one

GET IT

THIS IS SO FUN AND EASY! ITS WORTH IT

Love it

Elegant and intuitive. I use this app to create short animations, very fun!

Great

I think is quite good, I like it but I suggest to make so you can record audio and put it in the animation :)

OMG THIS IS SO GOOD

You can do pretty much everything with this app it is so good I use this app over any its free too. The app works fine everything works fine if you are new to animation you should use this

WTF

IT GLITCHED MY PICTURE THAT I WORKED HARD ON & NOW ITS FUDGING GONE, I WANT MY PICTURE BACK!!! YOUR SHOULDNT MAKE APPS THAT GLITCH OTHERS WORK!!!

Great, but...

The animating is great, all the functions are great and the drawing is smooth. The down side is, ITS WAY TO EXPENSIVE!!! 1.39$ to convert one animation into an MP4 file?!!???!!!! Only 2 stars because of the price. IT OVERWEIGHS EVERYTHING.

Fun but flawed

Its a mostly well designed app, and on the surface it has every feature you could want from it. It is very fun and responsive and direct to animate with it. But the strokes are bumpy when drawing slowly. Lines are aliased. Brushes mostly dont look great and are not customizable. Pencil support is meh. The delete frame button is just waiting for you to hit it accidentally and loose a frame forever. Not worth the primo asking price in its current state...

Great tool

Highly recommended for animators who are on the hunt for a simple yet sophisticated animation app. This app allows me to sketch draft of my animation, quick storyboarding and export as PSD for me to further work on. Some features are subscription based, but it definitely worth $21.99/year.

Heres the thing...

It tried making a animation but it was WAY to fast so Mabye you can add a speed setting? Also can you add auto please

Photos

All is very good but make possible paste photos!

No tools for skeching!

The full version app is so poor for scketching: yuo cant rotate the screen, you have very few an useless brushes. The worst is that you cant neither import images drawn from other apps to use them as background. I really hope they will upgrade it because is the only good app for cartoons for ipad pro

Love it

I love the app and all but I would really love it if we were allowed to add sound can you please add sound like recordings of ourselves and music. iTunes and YouTube PLEASE PLEASE AND PLEASE

Really good!

I really enjoy using this app. Its very easy to use and has a lot of different tools to use. The only thing that I feel is missing is being able to add audio files, that be great!

Yes Please

This app is chill even though I dont use it much. (^ー゜)

Great!

It is so much better with the delete,add, and duplicate buttons on the little bar!One thing;you cant see how big the eraser is when you are adjusting the size.But overall it looks really nice and I give it a 5!

Get your act together

Very amateurish. Their cloud synch seldom works; all that comes through are blank pages. The tutorials are a joke. Audio? Oh, have to use their OTHER app, except, well, see above comment about synching. Kdan, here’s some advice: concentrate on getting one or two apps really, really good before tossing out other (underbaked) ones.

Some thoughts on AD

Personally, I like this app and there is a lot of potential in it for being a good animation app. I could make pencil tests and export them as a psd, so more work could be done in Photoshop o Clip Studio paint. Heck this might be the only mobile app that does that. The tools have have their own shapes, which affect how the sketch lines would appear in the frame. Plus its possible to flip or roll the frames with the sidebar, which helps to check the volume of a animation; again this something that is unique to this app. However, I can only give it three stars, as there appears to be a bug where the previous frame overwrites one of the newer frames. This happens when the file is opened, and I find it to be random as well. This bug has been around since last year or even longer. I thought they would have find a solution to this issue a while back, but it still exists. The fact that this glitch is still around makes me leery extending the subscription. The other reason stems from the selection tool, as it cannot select the whole screen. I think this could be fixed if the user were able to zoom out from their animation. Now if the bug issue with the frames were fixed, this app would get a higher score. Though it would be great, if it were stable. Otherwise, happy animating folks!
