Share sheet glitch

Since updating to iOS 26, after sharing via airdrop to an unknown device or via email, the app’s UI shifts upwards, requiring a total restart of the app to reset. We depend on this app for our curriculum, and this had made it difficult to use. Not sure if updates are still being made, but we would appreciate this being looked at!

No longer works

App crashes to the desktop, no longer works with current iPadOS.

Useless

Since I couldn't pu 0 stars, I'll put one. I paid 13,00$ for a logiciel that doesn't even works and that doesn't open. Says compatible with macOS, but I dont think it is. Dont buy it, it is a waste of money and time.

I iStopMotion

This app was amazing. It was so cool. I like making stop motion. I really recommend this. Even though it’s really money, but it’s so good. I really recommend it. I’ve been doing this for like a day. I got it this day and it is amazing. I really really recommend. Hope you have fun doing stop motion.

Please refund

Does not allow taking stop motion videos in portrait mode. This should be a no-brainer feature but the app actually prevents you from doing this and always defaults to landscape view even when rotating the phone. Very bare bones app with poorly designed UI/UX. Not worth $10 👎

Response from developer

Hi there. I'm sorry to hear that you're not satisfied with iStopMotion. We'll consider adding portrait mode to a future version. The rotation lock is to prevent accidentally changing the format while you're creating a stop motion video. To request a refund, go to your App Store purchases page. Best regards, Oliver Breidenbach.

Great software

Love this software, I've used this since version 2 and so glad that it still works with modern computers and devices. Instead of using the iOS remote tool, I use separate application like Camo Cam to use my iPhone as a video source and then I have more control over things like focus, lighting, filters and more. Together they make a great pair.

External Camera Has Flipped Image

I connected an external camera for a stop motion project, but the image was flipped. There is no way to have the image flipped the right way....like how you see the world. Instead, everything is a mirror image... Say you want a image like this ⍃ but when you take the picture, you instead get an image like this ⍄

Another example, you want this ⬅️ but you get this ➡️

Fix this! The develepors need to look at using an external camera!

Useless

It doesn't allow you to make any manual adjustment, like focus, when you use your iPhone as the capture camera. A waste of money.

Es dauert zu lange. 😡😤😩

Diese App runterzuladen hat mehrere Tage gedauert, weil diese zu viel Speicher verbraucht.
Ich musste mein Fake IPad an der Steckdose lassen 😰😔.

Aber abgesehen von der Ladezeit war die App wirklich richtig atemberaubend schlecht. Für einen Film muss ich ganz viele Fotos machen, statt wie gewohnt aufzunehmen (sehr unpraktisch) aber nach 3 Tagen ohne Pause war der Film fertig.
Der Film war wackelig und richtig mies, weil meine Kaninchen immer weggelaufen sind und ich sie nur während dem schlafen filmen konnte, deswegen ist der Film sehr langweilig ☹️✂️📅

Allerdings muss ich zugeben, dass die Kamera auch sehr schlecht ist, weswegen alles unscharf ist (sehr nervig).

Kauft euch das jetzt für meine Erfahrung, welche ich hier geteilt habe (keine Werbung oder sowas) 👍👍🍆

Super witzig und einfach zu bedienen

#Ergänzung Juli 2021
Habe die App imm noch im Einsatz mit iPad und iPhone 11 – easy zu bedienen und inzwischen keine Probleme.
Und die kleinen Animationen lassen sich als Video exportieren und in iMovie weiterbearbeiten, zB Vor- und Abspann,… hinzufügen.
——————————-
Tolle App. Ich habe sie durch Zufall entdeckt und installiert - der Preis ist recht günstig. Zusammen mit meinem iPhone4 habe ich sofort angefangen die ersten Filmchen zu "drehen". Klasse. Inzwischen laufe ich durch die Wohnung und erwecke alles mögliche zum Leben. Man kann seiner Kreativität freien Lauf lassen. Ich hatte 2x nen Absturz. Allerdings war die bisherige Arbeit nicht weg, so dass ich keinen Punkt abgezogen habe. Für die investierten 4€ habe ich sehr viel Spaß und das sicher für ne lange Zeit, denn Ideen habe ich viele. Sehr viele. Profis werden sicher einige Funktionen vermissen. Aber für Freizeit-Steeven-Spielbergs sehr ich die einfache Bedienbarkeit als wichtiger an. Und die Ergebnisse können sich sehen lassen, das wurde mir bereits bestätigt.

Still a good app, but v4.0 won’t run on an iPad running OS 12

I purchased this program quite a few years ago, and v4.0 appears to run just fine on an iPhone running iOS 14 as well as an iPhone 6 on iOS 12.5.1. However, I have an older iPad that also can’t upgrade beyond OS 12.5.2 and it is unusable on that device. The app crashes on the iPad whenever I attempt to open a clip.

I can’t look over my videos

When I bought the app, I was very happy. Everything was fine! Then, after my 4 video, when I try to re watch the video, it will stop the frame and delete the work.

Good

I like it

Funktioniert nicht!

Leider funktioniert die App. bereits beim Ausführen nicht.
Stürzt einfach ab. Teure App. Finger weg!
Den einen Stern gibt es nur, damit ich hier überhaupt eine Bewertung abgeben kann.

Was great - Now not usable

This app used to be great I used to use it all the time now it crashes whenever I try to use it.

Not to happy

I’m not happy because I downloaded this for a lot of money and it don’t wanna work I delete three games doesn’t work two more and doesn’t work and deleted 27 photos and nothing ):

Deletes half of every thing

I made a racing stop motion, and the next day, just randomly, half of the images were showing black screens even though on the bottom it showed the image

I'm going to be blunt...

- no undo/redo options!
- you cannot reorganize frames
- drag and drop is useless, only function is to delete, which already exists as a button
- cannot add new frames between frames
- forces you to work linearly!
- in app playback sometimes flickers, must render to video for accurate playback
- not student friendly, doesn't let you correct mistakes

Not worth your money. This software feels unfinished. Get Stop Motion Studio Pro instead which is a complete software for less with all of the essential features this one shamelessly leaves out.

Failed rendering

The video on the foto library is doesnt exist every I render it.

When it worked it was great.....

When I first got this app it was great. I made a few short clips and everything worked well- the onion skin feature is especially useful.
Now when i open the app I get an orange screen or the frozen home screen. Feeling ripped off!

Developer contacted m e and fixed the problem 👍🙂
