Best out there
Even with its imperfections, ShotPro is still by far the most comprehensive, versatile all-in-one application for animation, pre-visualisation and performance capture available on the iPhone.
love this app
i love this app, but can you give the ios version its own library for assets and for import/export. in the way where i can use my phone storage and never have a problem when starting new scenes. also import/export audio library, basically a library folder. as of now there isn't even an import button for models and the import button for audio doesn't work.

i love the john scott showcase on the website, but can you give the ios version its own library for assets and for import export. the way where i can use my phone storage and never have a problem when starting new scenes.
Please Keep Developing This
I love this program and I’m surprised that there is nothing else like it. There are more complex and expensive programs, but this is PERFECT for sketching out ideas. I only wish that they would continue to develop it. They have a subscription desktop version with more features, but it hasn’t updated in years as well. This company is sitting on gold and doesn’t seem to realize it.

Promising software failed by lack of updates
It’s so very disappointing that the developers decided to stop updating this software. Having it on set on an iPad was such a huge bonus but no updates in years. The M4 iPad and an updated version of this software would be formidable. Developers, if you’re reading this please reconsider and bring it back to the iPad it would do wonders with an iPad Pro.

Powerful App, Weak Development
This studio was ahead of its time, facing resistance in an underdeveloped App Store market. Now, with AI and VR gaining momentum, and many drawn to 3D prototyping, conceptualizing and ideation.. it's disappointing they didn't evolve their powerful, yet outdated app.
The app boasts an impressive renderer but falls short on essential modern features, leaving space for competitors like Previz Pro & Naomi Animation.
Despite past promises of a new app on the way and volumetric haze (they responded to my email back in 2021 I think), it seems they've given up.
Possibly due to negative feedback or most likely… which is what I think: This team lacks know how on utilizing marketing on social media. (Youtube, Twitter, Insta, FB, Tik Tok.. etc)
Their competitors Previz Pro & Naomi Animation are doing wonders in social marketing and reaping the rewards (yet their product is INFERIOR compared to Shotpro) but they know how to market.. and that’s what matters, so revenue lands in their pockets. While Shotpro sits here weak.
However, if Shotpro ever decides to get out of their low self esteem state and finally be the pro it was meant to be… as a professional user of this app, I highly suggest the following modernizing updates:
- Full-body posing & animation control for all humanoids.
- Complete customization of all 3D assets. (Not just scaling)
- Direct iCloud importing for music, animations, assets, and SFX.
- Expanded 3D asset (GLB, FBX) and audio (MP4, WAV) file support.
- Manual masking using background asset (found in the camera & light section) so we can mask objects within the viewport.
- Transparency sliders for all elements.
- Video and GIF panels for in-scene displays.
- Basic VFX, like blurring.
A comeback with these features would be a massive boost for the pro users of this app (I may be the only imbecile that is a pro user of this app).

Frustrated
I have been trying to setup simple shot with custom audio and background the app is not even functioning properly. Is development team doing any changes. I have paid 44$ which worth 0$
The best
This has all the bells and whistles so here is more stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Powerful but sadly, not supported
I think there must be only two people supporting this app. Which is an amazing feat in itself.
Unfortunately, I cannot give this app five stars —> AS BAD AS I WANT TO.
For the last year…
I have used ShotPro everyday, I am a vr game designer.
I use ShotPro to create my vision and then import it into a design document using the Craft iOS app, Craft is like Notion, (but catered more towards creators) Craft allows me to mix text, gifs, videos into a document, which our team of developers and 3D artists then gets to see.
I use ShotPro to create animated visualizations, of my designs. I have over 1000 documents with visualizations & animations, I created all in ShotPro.
Therefore it hurts me, to give such an amazing app 3 stars. Which is unfortunate- the potential for ShotPro is galaxies & universes.
However, the areas that lack, greatly decreases my productivity and prevents me at times from clearly presenting my vision.
LACKS THE FOLLOWING: (which I would gladly pay for as dlc)
• The graphical assets we purchase in this app, cannot be modified in specific ways for our unique creations, maybe I just want to extend one arm (make it longer), but make the other arm short. All you can do is scale an entire asset, but no specific modifications can be made. Most of these assets are free maximo assets, I don’t understand why not allow us to tamper with the geometry when we pay for them, in ShotPro to unlock them. This alone highly diminishes the usage of graphical assets.
• Cannot save key frames and label them for later use
• Cannot import 3D assets, music or sound effects from iCloud. They force you to use dropbox, but doesn’t work
• Only accepts wav file not mp3.. mp4.. etc
• Cannot apply transparency to your 3D graphical assets via a transparent slider (can’t ghost an object or make faded)
• No letter, symbol & number primitives (no way of adding text in the viewport) can only use their camera screen text feature
• No way of posing palm of hands, feet, fingers
• Does not save your imported images, you have to keep importing them with every project that intends to use it.
Because of these things, I have started taking courses in Daz3D and Blender to get a level of visualizations, I cannot achieve here.

No.
Just don’t. You will face more in-apps purchase. It is not good, not worth it. I regret buying this. It feels like money-grab for them. If you are in a desperate need for a storyboard apps, try Previs and Backlot.
It’s awesome but importing is terrible.
This app could have been amazing but to many versions that aren’t compatible with each other. Importing obj files is a terrible experience. Information on app is very minimal. Customer Service seems sluggish at best. You still have to pay for assists once you buy the app. I want my money back and would rather use the desktop version.

Fix mobile bugs
Hi I paid a lot of money for the mobile app I’m using an iPhone 12 Pro Max and I cant import any of my music and I cant delete scenes or move them up or down please fix this on mobile I really like this app. Thank you
Have you given up on this app?
It seems like you’ve made no attempt to make this usable.
The wall creation is infuriating. You can’t select walls or the handles at the end easily. I’m sometimes pressing 20+ times and still getting no where.
I paid £30 for this. Fix it.

Great for the Price - Need to Fix Posing
Make no mistake, for the price this is a very powerful program. You can do so much with this app. I love almost everything about it BUT the character posing. Posing characters is endlessly frustrating. Arms are always bent in the wrong direction. I can get joints to move where I want them. It’s always such a struggle to pose characters in Shot Pro. In fact, the character posing is frustrating enough for me to dock 2 stars until that element of the program is refined. The posing is especially difficult with the dedicate Mac App. I wish the developer would implement a rotating X/Y/Z orbital posing tool like what is used in Frame Forge. Because just grabbing a point on the skeleton, and wrestling with it endlessly, is clunky and not very efficient. Seriously, if they’d just fix the posing I think this would be the best PreViz app on the market, beating out the big players. I’d even pay more for proper posing.

Great app
Absolutely great app for storyboards and concept art!
Great App, BUT!
Really I love this app, easy to use after playing with it for a day. Now my only gripe with the app and the reason I only gave it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and not 5 is that I would love to get more options are updates of different clothing and hair, like an Afro and different beards and more effects. I would gladly pay for them all and would give this app a 5 star and recommend it on my YouTube channel 🙏🏾 please make it possible.

Glitchy at best.
I really wanted this to work so bad. I purchases the text package to go with it. Pros are all good for getting basic shots but now i am running to infinite glitches
1-when you set two different camera cuts. All characters items start moving to different positions and moving in a random behavior and no matter how many times i readjust them they go back to that erratic behavior. I am forced to break up a scene to multiple scenes based on the camera cuts.
2- text writing is basically useless unlike other apps which allows you to write on a specific shot or take. This one writes on top of your entire scene sequence. You cant move it unless you establish another sequence.
3- I am not sure if there is something to fix these aspects that i have not learned but their tutorials needs a lot more work and details to make them useful.

Love the app, but keeps crashing
As a TV director, I would use it all the time and recommend it to colleagues... if it could only stop crashing every 5 minutes. Hopefully, this will this be fixed soon 🤞
Crashes
Good app, but why keep crashing every 5 minutes on my IPad Air. Is there any thing I can do to fix it, please help, thank you.
