### 2/5 — Needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY

*2015-07-06*

It's a promising app. You CAN animate on it. I wish you could zoom in or out of the drawing and there's a huge problem when it comes to saving your animation. It doesn't show up at all or it doesn't even save to your gallery at all (when you choose to save it in your gallery it doesn't save like it says it does) This app could be better. It just needs to be fixed when it comes to saving your file.

### 2/5 — Could Be Cool...

*2015-05-01*

This was a promising looking app, though a tad difficult to use. I was having a chipper time but when I went to save my animation/gif, it just saved the first frame! I would love to see this work better but until then... \(o~o)/

### 1/5 — Very broken
