I can’t get the colors I want due to the lack of eye drop, or proper color finding tools, we are trapped with trying to match it using a unreliable and hard rgb ### 3/5 — Eh sure *2026-07-21, version 1.7.1* it is good but um….. IF YOU ADD A VDIEO TO YOUR DRAWING…….. NO SOUND….. ### 3/5 — It's fine *2026-07-15, version 1.7.1* It's good for animation and you can easily clone a frame along with you can add colors but the problem is you can't add sound and you have to buy editing that's what takes away 2 of the stars so I rate it 3 stars it's good ### 2/5 — Many options, but not good *2026-07-12, version 1.7.1* I made a flip book and then closed the document but then it disappeared and it wasn’t even in the deleted documents section. I don’t know how to get it back.😭 ### 4/5 — Ehhhh it’s okay 😐 *2026-07-04, version 1.7.1* It’s good and all, but I wish there were layers so I could add things without messing with other things, but it could be worse. I made Mickey Mouse, don’t ask. ### 3/5 — Issues *2026-07-03, version 1.7.1* Good app overall, but when i rename a file it turns it into a folder and now I can’t turn it back 😭 ### 4/5 — No add and its free. others tools cost money... *2026-06-28, version 1.7.1* It cool and epic. I made 2 Documents so far ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-06-12, version 1.7.1* I’ve been animating for 4 years and all 4 years were on this app. I make animations for my channel & absolutely adore this app. There is one thing though, I which you could draw in SVGs & Import them. If you have to pay a one time payment, I would definitely pay it (As long as it’s under $30) ### 5/5 — Great *2026-06-12, version 1.7.1* It’s good i recommend ### 2/5 — Handy but not reliable *2026-06-10, version 1.7.1* Do not even try getting fancy with your animation. Not sure about the paid version, but if the only difference is wand tools, do not add any extra details, keep your animation loose as autosave save feature here is unreliable ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Couldnt even use *2026-08-22, version 1.7.1* When i downloaded it I wanted to animate and thought this would be great then I got in it and it was just files i didnt want to do this but 1 star sorry ### 1/5 — 3 hour project deleted *2026-08-09, version 1.7.1* Went to rename a project I had spent 3 hours working on, and when it had been renamed it converted into a folder that was no longer watchable, and I was unable to play the footage back or save the video to my phone. The interface is dreadful and super bummed to have easily lost so much work ### 1/5 — P *2026-07-31, version 1.7.1* Deleted my files ### 1/5 — WHAT *2026-07-22, version 1.7.1* I did an ENTIRE ANIMATION and it is gone!!! I can’t even begin to believe how that happened!! I was done and then when I went back to it, it was all gone!!! -10/100 DO IT RIGHT YOU SCUMMY APP!! ### 1/5 — Do not be fooled… *2026-07-18, version 1.7.1* I got this app to make cool, fluid, easy animations and boy was I wrong!! Let’s just say, you can only be good at this app if you’re close to rocket science. I didn’t want anything of this app except just an easy surface to draw on and easy instructions… the second I logged in I knew something was wrong.😑 to the creators, please just make a mode that makes it easier for everyone!! Maybe a ruler or something! Never playing again until they make this not rocket science, but a fun drawing app for everyone. ### 1/5 — …hate it *2026-07-15, version 1.7.1* You can barely draw it’s tiny on Phone and you have to have a Apple Pencil if you wanna draw detail ### 1/5 — Its not that good *2026-06-25, version 1.7.1* Bro this app doesn’t have layers someone needs to add a layer This lowkey bad and I have to pay nah imma give this a 5/10 ### 1/5 — It’s ok to test your skill wen you start but every thing is locked behind a paywall *2026-05-13, version 1.7.1* No there is only 4 thing you can use it’s too slimy ### 1/5 — One star *2026-04-29, version 1.7.1* The app was decent but once I excited the things I was working on I no longer had access to them so therefore it was one star ### 1/5 — C c’est nul *2026-03-25* Plein de bugs, c’est trop nul ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hollow purple *2026-08-22, version 1.7.1* This is so peak I made a animation ### 5/5 — gud *2026-08-20, version 1.7.1* Very gud I like how there’s no subscription it’s just one pay and also it’s very nice and relaxing when I just wanna make something.

But... i want them to add sounds and music but like a library of songs and sounds because idk how to do that save your songs and stuff... plus it would be wayyy easier to just pick it out. but overall very good app recommend getting 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — Best app by far! *2026-07-05, version 1.7.1* This is my new favorite app, I couldn’t find any good animation apps until this one, I want to be an animator YouTuber and I will definitely give this app the credit! I don’t understand how people can make such good apps! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
