Not bad, but could be better
I started looking for a simple animation tool to create short little animations that I could post. There weren’t a lot of options that worked for me, but FlipAnimation seemed promising!
First off, I love love love that there’s no subscription for the full version. I tried the app out, liked it enough to pay for the full version, but then noticed a couple things that aren’t detrimental, but definitely a headache.
1.) You can only have 1 layer in the free version. After paying for the full version, I started using layers, come to find out that you can’t move the layers around. This does not make animating impossible, but it is extremely difficult to plan for and work around. If that could be fixed, and layers can be freely moved, that would be much appreciated!
2.) There’s not a lot of options for drawing tools - the pencil seems to be the same as the pen, just not with a wispy trail. I know that’s not easy, and I assume more will be added over time as the app keeps updating, and I don’t mind waiting for more options to start rolling out!
These 2 issues is why I decided to drop a star off the rating. The other star, however was for a much more frustrating reason, considering I’ve now paid for this app and I’m really hoping to be able to still use it! The past couple days, after using the app for close to an hour, it started crashing on me. Luckily, all of my progress was still saved, and I didn’t lose even a single edit! Biggest relief. But, once it starts crashing and closing the app, it doesn’t stop :/ I just have to step away and wait to try again later. I downloaded the most recent update, wondering if maybe that was why, but it continued to crash even after. I *really* hope this doesn’t last and can be fixed soon!
This app is promising for what I plan to use it for, and I can’t wait to see what else it’ll bring as time goes on! I’d just like to be able to use it in the meantime is all! 🙏

Not much for people who want free stuff
I mean, yes there are free stuff but if i wanted to make a really cool animation i need to pay because the free minimum is 100, 100 frames seems like a lot but it’s not, plus quite a few of the lessons are premium only. Even though the 1 time payment is $12.99 or less or more (depending on where you live) what about kids or teens or just people who don’t pay for stuff. I know it seems like a big favor but I’m a person who is very new to animating and I KNOW though people who animate need more than 100 frames. This seems like a big favor but it’ll help this app get more popular and free (not entirely just enough for animators who don’t pay AT ALL for), Please acknowledge this. 100 frames seems like a lot but I am only halfway through my animation and already hit the limit. Please and thank you.

Great so far
Loving this and loving to learn animation so far. I haven't had a ton of time to spend with it, but really looking forward to keep using it. And learning more... for fun. My kids are loving it, too.

真的非常优秀专业
感谢开发如此优秀和专业的应用，一个小小的建议，就是希望在导出的时候支持去掉水印，免费版用户可以保留，但是完整版用户应该支持去掉水印，个人建议

Easy to use with Lots of tools
I love the shadow of the last drawing, makes it easy to draw the next slide . And being able to copy paste then alter means I don’t have to draw the same thing over and over again. Great app :)
