  • Love this app

    This app is a plus on the iPad, but it does need a little help to it...

    1. I would like this app to have different style pages even in landscape mode
    2. Another would be all ready made stickers that can be added to the comic in different style categories
    3. A few more style of filters
    4. The ability to add and download different style fonts

    A good example is ( Strip Design ) & ( ToonPAINT ) these two app are great when editing pictures on the iPhone. If the features of these two app were added to Comic Life it would boost the rating to this app...

  • Very Full Featured

    Really happy with the amount of control this program allows me to have over the look of a comic.
  • Seriously good

    Bought it this week and it's a great app for the money. Only problem is (for me) the touch screen controls are not very responsive. Brilliant!
  • A lot of fun...

    What a great app! My kids and I spent hours over the weekend making some of the most hilarious comics from old photos and Photo Booth. Great features. I love that you can print right from the iPad. Worth the price.
  • Very well done

    I have been a long time fan of the desktop version of Comic Life and was thrilled to see an iPad version. You have done such a good job. The app is packed with all sorts of possibilities for creating wonderful comics, whilst at the same time the UI is uncluttered and easy to navigate.

    And this is such an early version of the app. I look forward to seeing where you might go from here. I could imagine that a greater range of templates would be most welcome a little way down the road. But for now there is plenty to get going with!

    Thank you for a great app!

  • Awesome, but...

    Really happy to finally have this for iPad, but it instantly crashes when I try to type Japanese text into a word balloon or text box. Please fix, and it will be a five star app!

    Would like to see an export/import option in future versions that is compatible with the Mac and PC versions of your software, if possible.

  • Needs hi-res export option

    Competes well with Strip Designer, but lacks hi-res export option VIA email, or save.

    Some Comic Life features surpass Strip Designer, which gives this app great potential to own this space.

    There really isn't ant reason more file type exports couldn't be included. The speech bubbles in Comic Life blow away Strip Design speech bubbles.

    A hi-res export option would be a big plus for digital cartoonists that are published in dead tree publications.

    4 stars, 5 stars when hi-res export is included.

  • Needs Work

    The app is buggy and as others have noted, the UI is poor. I can crash the app by just using backspace to delete text. The UI has not had enough iPad design consideration and looks too much like a quick port from OS X. Even font choices (face and size) in supplied templates are poor (see the Mesa template for example) as the text is almost illegible.

    At the price you should save your money till this gets some updates.

  • At long last

    I've been using Comic Life on the Mac for year and heard it was coming to the iPad. I am not disappointed at all. Plenty of scenes, fonts and graphics to make your own comic book style pages with your photos. Some great sharing options including iPad to iPad sharing, but I'd like to see DropBox integration as well. $7.99 is a fantastic price for this great app.

    If you like sharing your photos you can't go wrong with this.

  • If you like the desktop version, you'll love this

    Easy to use app to design comics, fliers, greetings, advertisements, memos, or just about anything else. Simple to use interface and stunning, funny, results. Customer support is extremely responsive and ready to assist. Be sure to drill into the more complete help information to really learn the power of the app. The quick overview gives a short version of this, but to really learn how to edit, dig into the help. Lots of fun and stunning results.
