### 4/5 — Amazing app!!!!

*2026-08-23*

This is an amazing app but it’s very glitchy and sometimes it switches out my past slide and copies it for all of them. But overall great quality and great app! Also I think it would be nice if yo could add eyedrop. Thanks!!!

### 1/5 — Not as easy i’m never playing this again

*2026-08-23*

The beginner wasn’t easy. They made it a little bit too hard to animate if you’re our starter do not buy this game. It is clearly way too hard and I will give it a one star or a zero star if I could in the best way to learn to animate besides this boring game, give flip clip a chance I know it’s better then this horrible game

### 5/5 — Pefect the one i was waiting for

*2026-08-09*

Good

**Developer response:** thanks for your feedback :)

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-19*

Flip Animation is one of the most featurepacked creative apps I’ve used on mobile. The new Rotoscope feature lets me import videos and trace them frame by frame, which is perfect for learning realistic motion and creating smooth animations.
The app also includes more than 115 lessons covering the 12 principles of animation, walk cycles, effects, and mini scenes, so there’s always something new to practice. The drawing tools are accurate and responsive, playback is smooth, and the editor feels faster than ever.
If you’re an animator, artist, or someone who wants to explore animation, I highly recommend this app. It feels like having a complete 2D animation studio right in your pocket.

**Developer response:** thank you :) * flip animation - draw animate 2D

### 2/5 — Animation Old School Style

*2026-06-03*

Now I’m going to be completely honest and transparent in this review. I will also preface that I’m a digital animation student and have used many of the popular animation apps and software. On a social media where someone was promoting this app, they offered a free premium code for 48 hours, which I decided not to use. I wanted to try this app as someone just finding it and review it with the eyes of someone new.

As the title says, this feels like a really old school animation app, it’s not horrible but it takes some getting used to. The onion skin feature is wonky, where when you erase on one layer and go to another, the onion skin shows the erasure markings. Also you can only see the top layer onion skin, which totally throws off my key frames as I stopped doing straight ahead animation a while ago. You can’t select specific sections of a drawing and scale or rotate it, you can only scale the entire drawing. The pens actually feel pretty nice, there’s only a few to choose from and the smooth one is my favorite. The zoom feature felt a bit awkward at first too, that little hand in the corner is your friend. You are not able to move layers, and as a key frame artist who draws the key frames first and then goes in and does the inbetweens, you just have to hope the layer that you drew is in the right spot, you can’t even move copied layers which is a bummer. Also when you get out of your project and then go back in, your colors disappear and the brush sizes go to default, which wouldn’t usually be a problem but as far as I looked, I didn’t see a color picker tool. 

Overall, I did not finish my animation at the time of writing this review, it just took too much time trying to look past the onion skin erasure marks to draw the next frame. Also I ended up giving this review 2 stars because of all the ai graphics, as someone else said, for someone promoting an app geared towards artists, you probably shouldn’t have your brand focused towards generated art. I am glad I did try out this app though, as long as it took, it was surprisingly easy to understand the UI once I got used to it.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your detailed review. We truly appreciate the time and effort you put into sharing your experience with us.

We will continue improving the app by taking your feedback into consideration. Detailed feedback like yours is extremely valuable to us, as it helps us identify areas that need improvement and prioritize future updates.

Please keep an eye on upcoming updates.. we are committed to addressing these shortcomings and making the app a better experience for all users.

We wish you a great day! :)

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2026-05-30*

I can’t believe I found this. It’s perfect for an idea I had to have some custom animations on screen while I narrate.

**Developer response:** thank you :) have a good day

### 5/5 — Amazing!

### 5/5 — Very cool

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8.8 — 2026-08-28

Draw animation frame by frame with real brushes, build the movement with onion skin showing the frame before yours, then export your cartoon as a GIF or a video. This is our biggest design and drawing update yet.
• A brand new look: the frame strip is real animation paper with punched holes, your canvas sits on a lightbox, and every tool looks like a proper piece of studio kit
• Eyedropper: pick any colour straight off your drawing and keep going
• A real colour studio: hue, saturation and brightness sliders, RGB, hex codes, a hand picked palette and your last 16 colours
• Layers in the order you want them: drag a layer up or down to change what sits in front
• Smarter selection: the lasso now cuts through filled areas too, so you lift exactly the piece you drew
• Tilt your text: turn words and place them at any angle
• Fewer taps: one tap takes you back to the brush you were using, and holding undo rewinds your strokes one after another
• Bigger controls that suit your screen, on phones and tablets alike
• Steadier than ever: your frames stay exactly as you drew them and your work stays safe while you draw
Sketch it, trace it and bring it to life frame by frame!

### 1.8.5 — 2026-08-22

Draw animation frame by frame with real brushes and onion skin, then export it as a GIF or a video. This update is all about speed, stability and control.
• Pinch to zoom finally behaves itself: pull right back past the edges of the canvas, dive deep into the fine detail, and slide the drawing around with two fingers at any zoom level
• Deleting is easy to find: the delete button for a frame is always on screen, every control is labelled in your own language, and holding your finger on a project brings up rename, duplicate and delete
• Lighter on its feet: the app now starts up using far less memory, so it keeps going on older handsets instead of shutting itself down mid drawing
• Fewer freezes: opening, saving, duplicating and playing long animations no longer lock up the screen, imported photos stay light, and timeline thumbnails appear without the stutter
• Ink that keeps up: your line follows your finger or stylus much more closely, even on slower devices
• Tools your way on tablets: the eraser now sits directly under the pencil, and you can hold any tool and drag it, so the toolbar is organised around the way you work
• Spot on frame timing: the speed slider snaps to whole frames, plus and minus step one frame at a time, and the hold count is shown so two frames can share exactly the same timing
Sketch it, trace it and bring it to life frame by frame!

### 1.8.4 — 2026-08-17

A brand new lesson series has arrived: Stickman Basics, and the first two episodes are free for everyone.
• Ten hand-drawn action episodes teach real animation craft: standing and balance, the wind-up and recovery that make a punch land, the timing of an exchange between two characters, the arc of a weapon, speed and motion smears, weight and the way a body falls. Trace along frame by frame and your stickman really starts to move. The new series sits on the home screen next to Save the King, so you can switch between them whenever you like
• Continue where you left off, now for everyone: every lesson and episode you have drawn in keeps your work, so you can reopen it and carry on, or start fresh instead
• Cleaner exports with Premium: export your GIFs, videos and images without the small FlipAnimation logo
• A more focused drawing screen: tap the eye and the interface steps aside while your brush settings stay within reach. The small control at the bottom moves you between frames: tap it to step, slide it to flip through, and add a new frame right there
• Better looking everywhere: previews across the app now show your real brushes, the home screen is tidier, and the app runs smoother and steadier than before
Draw it, trace it, bring it to life frame by frame!

### 1.8.0 — 2026-08-17

Everything is dramatically faster and smoother.
• A big leap in speed: drawing with wide brushes, filling with color, opening large projects, switching frames and undo all stay fluid where the app used to hesitate
• Thumbnails now show your real artwork: every preview in your projects, in folders, in the frame strip and in the export preview is drawn with your actual brushes, so crayon looks like crayon and spray looks like spray
• A new focus mode: tap the eye and the interface steps aside so you see only your drawing, while your brush settings stay within reach and a small control at the bottom moves you between frames. Tap it to step, or slide it to flip through your animation by feel
• Faster, lighter exporting: GIF, video and image exports finish sooner, so even long animations export reliably on more devices
• Steadier sessions: a crash that could happen while transforming a selection is fixed, and long sessions stay smooth from start to finish
Draw it, trace it, bring it to life frame by frame!

### 1.7.0 — 2026-08-10

More brushes, more tools and a fresh new look.
• Many more brushes and brush styles: spray, watercolor, charcoal, calligraphy and more, each with a live preview so you can see the stroke before you draw it
• An expanded tool set and a redesigned interface that keeps what you use most within easy reach
• Improved transform: move the rotation point wherever you need it, and position your artwork with new precision
• Light theme: the app now follows your device appearance, with a refined new light look
• Smoother performance on long animations, plus polish throughout on phone and tablet
Draw it, trace it, bring it to life frame by frame!
