Good Tool - UI Could Improve
You can realize your quick comic book ideas with this app.
The layouts, bubbles, and stickers are great.
There are a two focus areas that would make this app more enjoyable to work with.
Saving, organizing, and navigating your work is confusing and scary. When I create a book, how do I navigate to and edit the next page? Why am I getting a message that my work may be lost when I had just saved?
And positioning items is scary. Sometimes, the 'Lock Button' for a panel image is hidden by speech bubbles.
I would love to see a menu that shows me where I am and allows me to navigate elsewhere. Am I editing a singular page? Am I viewing a book? Am I editing a page within a book? There should probably be a main menu.
The tools are there, and they are great tools. The interface just makes me nervous that I'm going to lose or mess up my creations.

Good app for creating what you want
I really enjoy the app. It works great to help me create study materials for herbs in school. The one problem I have with it that is problematic, is consolidation of files and uploading the finished comic book as a full PDF either to Email or to a computer. This causes a challenge with transferring the comic book to another device, or the finished product for storage elsewhere. I also have a few glitches switching between pages and the comic books.

Could be improved
This app has phenomenal potential. But right now, some things just need some improvement.
Things I like about this app:
There is a lot of material.
The pricing is great.
The FX are really cool.
Things I don’t like about this app:
The captions don’t resize completely, just the bubble.(so I wish there was a pinch to resize for the captions)
For some reason the only some of the words I type will actually show on the captions.
You can’t rotate the templates to make it the way you want.

Really good for comic makers
I’ve always had the trouble of finding panels that are the same style but also keeping the text in the speech bubbles the same size in each one.
This app has solved both those problems. gives me various pages of panels that are all the same styles and keeps the does the speech bubbles for me. Now I can create each panel separately and simply place it on the page when done. That app helps save me a lot of the troubles I had before.
The only thing that could make it better is keeping the high quality of each image placed in and lastly is that it should have even more option of pages of differently arranged panels that get added as an update

Carry over to another device not happening!
Maybe I’m doing something wrong but I got an iPad and when I opened the app none of my purchases or projects are recognized from my phone and I have no way to restore the purchases for the extra action words I made on my phone. Any suggestions?
Help
So i downloaded the app a week ago ended up not needing it so I deleted it and then today i was charged like $3.99 from the app but have no way to contact support or find out what or why i was charged. It doesn’t show i have a subscription to this app or have even used it yet im still being charged. Not a fan.

ComicBook! Is a MUST Have!
I have been using this for years… I worked for Apple Computers for more than 10 years consistently recommended it as one of the best Apps for expressive creativity.
I recommend getting used to the different lay outs, think about telling a story and then use other apps in conjunction to produce the art in a way that reflects your style.
I like to take pictures of my kids toys, artistically modify them, then bring them into ComicBook! To lay them out to make stories. Good stuff.
Developers: PLEASE KEEP SUPPORTING THIS APP! The sky is the limit with its potential.

Screen freezes
I’ve used this for years and loved it but now the new version just freezes on my screen and the new backgrounds box won’t move off my screen, despite me trying to say cancel, it’s just unresponsive. I’m so upset as it’s my go to app. Why is it like this?
So much fun
I seriously use this app for everything and have so much fun editing photos and telling stories.
Haven’t been back to apple for a decade
I’ve missed this app. I make photos to share with family. Mainly from gadgets; drone, iRCams thermal imaging, ramble on….
