This has bugs

I don’t know about you guys, but 2 dollars is just to much. The animation is so choppy no matter how many frames or fps you are at/on. I was just playing it, and it shot me out the app! When I went back in to the app, all of my projects were gone! Please fix bugs. I am not trying to hurt the creators feeling, but this sucks!

Wow!

This is basically the iPad animation software you always wanted. Wish I had landed on it sooner! Can’t say enough good things about it. Just simple enough, just enough features, a work of art.

Bugs that destroy my work

Good app at first but it’s been deleting my frames for no reason. It’s really frustrating to work so hard on a frame and all of a sudden it disappears.

Good

Just wish the camera moved more smoothly and to undo I could press with two fingers like in procreate, other than that awesome

Amazing, yet still needs more (edited, with a better explanation)

I use this app for basically all my videos. It's nice, and easy to use! Yet, I have some suggestions. I feel like you could add more brushes, and tools, like a watercolor paintbrush or something. Second, we need more than 1000 frames. Last time I tried added more than 1000 it didn't let me, and I even paid for the upgrade. Third, we should be able to like make the background sounds in the app like in Flipaclip. I have to make a video in iMovie with a blank background, and put together the sound there and import it onto the app. That's also how I'm able to get past 1000 frames. We should also be able to add text because my handwriting is sloppy. Besides it would look better, with all the fonts and stuff. That's really all, but the app does crash sometimes, and deletes what I had on the frame I was on. Also can you add the option to add lighting? It's such a pain. We need pens that can make things brighter and darker. Like, you color something with that pen and that color(s) becomes brighter/darker. (I don’t know your email address so I edited this with a better explanation.) Anyway, I'm done talking. Please read this :) (oh and also the option to pan the camera around like in anime, where it does ken burns and stuff)
