Kineo 23.3 adds animated GIF export—select it as a format in the "…" when sharing an animation! This version also fixes an issue that could cause animations to not open on iPhone or when using side-by-side windows on iPad. …that's a soft-G GIF, by the way.

Turns out there's multiple meaning of the word "last"! Kineo 23.2 fixes another crash, when you're deleting the last remaining page in a single-page animation.

Kineo 23.1 squashes another obnoxious bug: if you were looking at the last page of an animation, and deleted it, the app would crash.

Kineo 23.0 fixes a few obnoxious bugs: - A crash would occur if you long-pressed the + button for adding a new page. - It was impossible to export an animation on the first-ever launch of the app, after seeing or skipping the app tutorial. New features are underway and should be appearing soon! Thank you for your patience.

Kineo 22.3 fixes a few bugs with the gallery view, which shows all your animations: - When long-pressing an animation, the preview had no background color or image, causing your animation to play over the rest of the gallery instead. - When long-pressing an animation, there was a "Share" menu item that had no effect. This menu item now works. This release also fixes a layout bug when running on some future versions of iOS.

This new version of Kineo adds a new Kineo Pro feature: background images! Draw fun animations over your favorite photos—doodle on your pets, friends, family, and more! This feature is available on both iOS and iPadOS and is free to all existing Kineo Pro users.

Introducing Kineo Pro—powerful extra features for Kineo! Kineo Pro currently includes the following features: - Zoom in on your animation! Zooming in allows you to have more control over fine details. The drawing tools stay at the same size when zooming in, letting you draw much smaller lines than previously possible. (Only on iPad.) - Remove the “kineo.app” watermark that appears on shared videos. Want to focus your videos on the work you’ve created? Hide the Kineo advertisement that previously appeared on all exports. Many more Pro features are planned very soon, and they’ll all be included in this one-time purchase! This version also includes bug fixes for all users. This includes a common crash which would happen if you used the eraser and then immediately changed pages. Erasing should now be a much less treacherous act. :)

This update gives you more power over your animation canvas! You can now select a different color for your animation background, such as a bright blue sky, yellow "sticky note", or black for a cool dark mode! Stickers in iMessage now include the canvas, so you can show off the colors you've chosen. Kineo also now includes a quick guide for first-time users, to get you started drawing and animating quickly. This release also fixes a few bugs: - Scrolling the page strip should always have hidden the "previous pages" images. It now does so. - In some circumstances, you could accidentally trigger the "welcome to Kineo" page multiple times. Now it will only ever appear once.

Sharing your animations just got a big overhaul! Animations aren't tied to an ugly pointy square any more—you can now share them with the canvas you see in Kineo. Kineo now also supports different video shapes. In addition to the existing square, there's now support for both horizontal and vertical videos, so your videos will look their best, no matter where you share them. We've also made it easier to switch between looping and bouncing animations—switching between these is now just the tap of a button.
