Horrible

This app is great! If you like nonstop crashing and random glitch outs! Please fix this.

DON’T USE THIS APP!

When I was on this app, I was like working on a storyboard, but it keeps crashing and makes me lose my progress! I am so mad!

DO NOT USE. I Lost ALL my progress even on a saved board

I storyboarded almost my whole episode. I saved it over multiple days. Right now, it crashed and my file is NO WHERE. Its just gone. This is horrible. Is there any way I can get my lost work back???? Not using again unless this is fixed.

This sucks!

Dude! i cant even use this! i try to import files, and it is too big and takes up the ENTIRE canvas! I cant get flipaclip on my mackbook, so i choose this. Why not try to make this app better?!? im deleting this app.

Super upset

I’ve been using the app for a while and it does exactly what I need. But today, while working in another project, one project just disappeared into thin air. I didn’t press anything or even open it. Is there any way to restore previous projects?
