Sucks

You only have too many frames. You can’t change the frames per second. It’s all locked behind a pay wall.

I’m still fuming!

The app itself is great, and fun. I spent like an hour making this animation and I needed to say that, but I needed to buy the premium to save it, and the app wouldn’t let me! So I tried something else, and then it erased my hour of hard work completely. Whoever made this app I already know your name, STUPID JERKS FROM HELL!

Everything is locked

Why is almost everything locked behind a paywall but it does get the job done

Bad

You have to pay for stuff

Bad…just so close to being good

So this app is good-layers,onions,pixel thickness- but I CANT SAVE AN ANIMATION FOR THE LIFE OF ME! I tried for so long. An app should make options obviously available.If I have to look up options, search the app, look up how to save animations, and more; then clearly, the makers of this app should try a little harder to make things accessible for users. Truly disappointing.
