### 1/5 — Why...

*2022-12-20, version 0.4.0*

It won't let me draw for some reason

### 2/5 — Not quite what I’m looking for

*2022-01-26, version 0.4.0*

Great app for beginners and maybe short videos but I am looking for something bit more advanced

### 2/5 — Devia ter tutorial

*2022-01-19, version 0.4.0*

Dou 3 estrelas pois não consegui animar, não tem tutorial oq deixa difícil sabe usar o app, não saiu o desenho, coloquei cor e não foi a linha espero que atualize e tenha tutorial😠

### 3/5 — It’s okay

*2021-10-23, version 0.4.0*

It’s hard to understand till you can see where it is flipaclip is good for like animation like this

### 3/5 — Well..

*2021-10-13, version 0.4.0*

I’ve used this app before but ngl. I agree with the person who disliked.

### 5/5 — I love this aaaaps

*2021-04-30, version 0.4.0*

This aaps is very cool and awesome, but the réglages is limited but Is so fun !

### 2/5 — I do not like it

*2021-02-27, version 0.4.0*

This was the first app I used in animation because i didn't know any other apps but anyways, I do not like the experience.
First of all, there is no fill bucket which kind of leads me in somewhere where I have to make my frame a little bit messy which I didn't like.
Second of all, You cannot control the fps. Sometime I want to change the fps but Idk how but then I noticed you can’t so please put it so you can control the fps.
Last of all, When you draw with some colors, it kind of leaves a mark when you draw. Idk how to describe it but when you draw with yellow or something, it is like separate circles with a different outline which kind of annoys me when it comes to making lightning and etc.

Btw, I didn't upload it on this device but on another device because I couldn't find the app on my device.

### 4/5 — Amazing Animation App!

*2021-02-14, version 0.4.0*

I don’t usually give reviews heh however, this app is amazing, diff brush sizes, onion skinning, just amazing. The only thing that everyone seems to forget about is frame rate, or how many frames per second is the animation. I hope you will add it, and overall this app is amazing!

### 5/5 — Love your app thank you

*2021-01-13, version 0.4.0*

The colours, the simplicity, exactly what I wanted, thank you this is bloody brilliant.

### 3/5 — It’s to laggy and annoying

*2020-11-07, version 0.4.0*

when I scroll down my flip books it’s a bit laggy at first but...it kicks me out at a few seconds so I tried AND tried and finally I got to finish my flip book just for 4 to 5 minutes so it’s a annoying 😩
