Great appppp! But just one idea.

I love this app and would totally recommend it. I do have one idea though that I think would make this app next level! I love how you do the video but it would be awesome if you could print out each page and then you could actually flip it yourself.

Love the app

It is nice and I love how you can make lots of flip book out of it, and you can save the books because not much other apps can save the flip books.

You can then share your creations on social media or use them as stickers in the Messages app.

How does the app help with drawing animations?
