User reviews

My review is dead somehow. Here we go again I guess.

I originally asked if this was available on Mac/PC, but then I opened the app, read some reviews, and…yikes.

A paywall that doesn’t even tell you how to pay? 62GB of storage space for a day’s work? Sucking up to the subscription trend? Bruh, do y’all WANT this bird to die before it gets to fly?

At least this doesn’t track people or lock them out when there’s no internet connection like Feather does (which had the smarts to at least LOOK like a one-time purchase thing).

My suggestion to you:
- Ditch the subscription service and account system. It’s not ethical or sustainable, and I’m embarrassed to think about this peak innovation rotting behind it.
- Optimize the drawing storage. Records show it’s not efficient, like, at all (again: 62 GIGABYTES FOR A DAY! [my iPad can barely fit 2G with all the other stuff I do on here]).
- Accessibility options for folks that don’t have Apple Pencil. Maybe have an alternate mode with a separate UI for camera movement controls and the fingers just draw? Idk just make something that can work for non-Apple pen users.
- Clear and unobscure instructions for how to do stuff and implement basic functions that haven’t put in already. The most common complaintsI seem to be getting from the reviews is about unintuitive and missing functionality that is second nature to 2D programs.

This innovation is amazing and it sucks to see it shafted by such simple lapses of judgement on the developers’ part, but as long as you developers are willing to listen to, understand, and act on user feedback such as my own, it’s not hopeless.

We can fix this, together.

Different kind of tool

I am not much of an artist overall but this app adds some new dynamics to what I can create. I have been enjoying using the visibility in the bookmarks which was the last tutorial video. It allows me to “animate” simple changes within a scene by duplicating an element and then moving it or altering it. I have only used the app limitedly. I also bought it years ago I think when they did a lifetime purchase, so I am not sure what is available in the free or trial version now. Worth trying out. I have also used Feather App some and this one for me is easier at the moment because style of canvas creation and duplication.

No email sends

You guys don't reply and your email send is too weak to send anything I'm disappointed.

Not a new dimension

Hoped I could get a new perspective but this was basically procreate with no brushes and like a millions times wIrse cuz I love procreate, I only did 5 stars to get developed]r response and so you could see this, reality, 1 star bye

Keep losing art…

Every time I work on something and get in the groove of things the app crashes and closes itself.. I reopen it only to see everything I’ve done is gone even if I’ve saved it multiple times throughout the process… will be deleting. Very disappointed, many wasted hours. Would rate 0 stars but not how it works unfortunately.
