Other than that this is a really cool app (I’d also really like the feature of being able to warp my drawings more but whatever) ### 4/5 — Imelonbread *2026-08-13, version 5.27* Very fun easy, a lot of tools,o ton of tutorials to many adds ### 4/5 — Amazing *2026-07-27, version 5.27* I think this app is amazing because it replicates the simple aspect of animation and also reminds me of animating on the 3ds, I think that this app is amazing but needs 1 thing that I think would top it off, the ability to change the size of the canvas. Then you could really replicate the size of the 3ds and animate at whatever size you feel comfortable with. ### 5/5 — Foliscope is so good! *2026-07-24, version 5.27* This app lets you make animations very quickly. They should add a music placer too so your animation will be very hyper. ### 5/5 — Great *2026-07-22, version 5.27* I love this game it helps me animate and it’s free all apps like these aren’t free. Only thing I need help with is how to get my picture on my profile or just a drawing for it ### 5/5 — Works perfectly to anime videos and other things *2026-07-22, version 5.27* Good ### 4/5 — Very nice *2026-07-22, version 5.27* This app however was very fun to use .but I think u should add add more maximum frames for profile,rest all is a very features . And contests should be held more often . I , however experienced bugs in this game so please fix them to make the app more smooth... ### 5/5 — Пчел и его комьюнити *2026-07-08* Ух третий год сижу в этом приложении и спасибо разработчикам за создание этого приложения и модераторам за из работу. Idk why I wrote this massage. Nobody won’t see it but anyway thanks very much “@devs”. This community has become an integral part of my life; ) ### 5/5 — 67 *2026-07-03, version 5.26* 67 ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-07-03, version 5.26* For some reason, this app made me feel seen, my first animation I got a new follower and two people said welcome in the comments. It felt really good. My username is, Lun_Lun_lovee ! ### 4/5 — Ну так *2026-06-23* Хорошо, много лгбт-, очень много рекламы если без покупки, советую у кого много нервов. ### 5/5 — The best animation app *2026-06-18, version 5.26* This is the best app ever no one can ever read this. Nothing can beat this not even what everybody thinks is the best animation app. This is the best. ### 5/5 — Не верьте всем это их проблемы *2026-06-16* Ребята приложение хорошее для начинающих во графика простая это тебе не idis paint а простая и хорошая всем советую и реклама (лично у меня ) появляется ток когда создаю новый мульт один раз во время работы нет проблем ### 5/5 — Just yes *2026-06-16, version 5.26* There may be advertisements, but otherwise, this app is the best, you can animate and you can just draw on a single frame is you don’t want to animate but want to draw. And I love how you can go to one pixel for details, it’s amazing. Whenever I can’t find a good app for drawing and animation that doesn’t charge me to be able to do this and that, I come back to here, and I love it. This is also where is first started to try animation, Folioscope is the best in my opinion, thank you devs for blessing me with this app, for I am thankful for this beautiful art program. -also it doesn’t have Ai features and I love that. Again, Thank you. ### 5/5 — Best animation app! *2026-06-14, version 5.26* Been using folio since 2018 and starting posting my animations in 2020, community is very friendly and caring, the app is very good for simple animations and reminds me of flipnote on the ds! ### 3/5 — 良い *2026-06-09* うごメモみたいなアニメーションを作れるアプリを求めていたのですごく助かります！追加して欲しいことが幾つかあります。 ①テキスト機能が欲しい ②レイヤーをせめて3枚欲しい ③音源を入れてアニメーションのタイミングを合わせたい ④写真、画像や動画をインポートしたい 以上です。どれか1つでも良いので追加待ってます！これからも使わせていただきます！ ### 5/5 — Very good *2026-05-29, version 5.26* There aren’t ads that get it the way of my animation making. ### 5/5 — I love this I recommend *2026-05-28, version 5.26* This app is free and only has ads when switching tabs. It is a great app for beginners and master animators. I highly recommend this AMAZING drawing app ### 4/5 — :) *2026-05-23, version 5.26* It’s pretty good not too hard but not super easy it’s kinda in the middle ### 5/5 — Youtube *2026-05-19, version 5.26* Grâce à cette apli je peu faire des vidéos incroyable !!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Found out why i cant login a account on folio *2025-09-25, version 5.21* I can’t logging because Folioscope didn’t delete my account so when i tried to make a new one of the same account it wouldn’t let me because it didn’t delete my old account, oh it also wont let me do my email address because its been taken by my old account ### 1/5 — To many adds and not even kid friendly not even a lil bit. *2025-07-22, version 5.21* Great app but there’s quite a few problems. No.1 there’s lots of gore and swearing. No.2 to many adds, plus the only add i get is the temu app adds. No.3 it ask’s fo your email address and account what’s very doggy. No.4 it seems simple to animate on it, but it’s very confusing. No.5 Folioscope is basically a place for people to show of there drawings or animations. finally, some people on here are inappropriate or doggy. Sorry Folioscope but you are very doggy. good bye chaps. ### 1/5 — Full of Ads *2025-05-22, version 5.21* Everything and everytime. Just by opening your project and seeing other peoples work in the platform gives u a long annoying unskippable ad ### 1/5 — Обновление отстой *2024-11-22* Переделайте ### 1/5 — Please add more ads *2023-03-09* Can’t even tell if the app is good or bad - it’s impossible to do so with such amount of ads. ### 1/5 — Ads 😤 *2023-01-14, version 5.10* Couldn’t even get past the ads to use this app. Annoying. ### 1/5 — 1 star *2022-11-09, version 5.9* Pretty decent ### 1/5 — Malísima *2022-05-16* Va a 0 fps es horrible, no pude ni hacer una animación, se transapa una cosa fea de colores a la siguiente pagina todo me sale horrible. No la recomiendo para nada Oleeeee Mr Beast ### 1/5 — Terrible. *2021-04-13, version 4.13* You can’t even draw, if I can’t draw I can’t animate! Give us a tutorial on how to do it you stupid people! ### 1/5 — Почему сняли деньги? *2019-12-17* Здравствуйте , загружалось как бесплатная версия.

If anyone else sees this, my account is @meowcat ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜 ### 5/5 — Best thing for beginners *2026-08-23, version 5.27* This is the first animation app I have ever used and I love it it is so easy and isn’t as complex as other animation apps ### 5/5 — Just the best game *2026-08-22, version 5.27* Just the best game ever the best, the best, the best the best ### 5/5 — Thank You *2026-08-16, version 5.27* Thank You For Everything. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-08-05, version 5.27* Absolutely great community, devs and mods listen to the people, and it is a very good place to learn color theory and other skills. ### 5/5 — URGENT!, developers need to hear this *2026-07-31, version 5.27* It 100% needs to add sound, sound would be great for the animations pls, we need sound! ### 5/5 — Круто, но *2026-07-30* Read this please read this please Я надеюсь что разработчики хотя бы читают отзывы, ведь я ещё не видела их ответов. Приложение хорошее, мне нравится смотреть анимации других людей и делать их самой! Особенно мне понравилось то, что это приложение подходит для старых версий iOS. Я еле нашла что-то для кадровых анимаций для своего старого телефона со старой версией. Кстати я буду благодарна если при обновлениях не нужна будет более новая версия! (Я не знаю как это всё там работает с версиями, что влияет на это и тп, я вообще ничего на эту тему не знаю, но просто говорю) Но есть что-то что иногда мешает рисованию. Например цвета, их мало. Конечно есть иногда выходы из ситуаций, например цветная точечная заливка. Но мне кажется легче добавить цвета, нет? Ещё кое-что про лассо. Это круто что оно там вообще есть, но не круто то, что объект который ты обвёл лассо невозможно Свободно крутить. А ещё кое-что про слои. Тоже было бы очень хорошо если бы было больше слоёв Наверное я уже наглею.. Было бы круто если бы добавили прозрачность (или как это называется). То есть можно цвета делать более прозрачными Я надеюсь что разработчики прочитают (если они вообще живы и им не плевать на приложение)! Но всё таки для меня наверное самое главное - это что приложение работает на старой версии ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-07-24, version 5.27* 640x480 pixel canvas. It’s very simple, and that is what i love about it. only a 17 color palette to work with, but using some of the tools, you can create custom colors. You can share your animations with a small community on the app. I’ve used dozens of animation apps, but Folioscope is the only one that stuck with me. (Also, concerning the frequency of the ads—which has been a problem for many users—they have very recently been reduced. They will no longer show in the editor, and will appear less using the community features) -spork --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
