REALLY ANNOYING

I worked on a Lego themed project for over an hour and the app randomly deleted what I had been working on. I was SO ANNOYED! But I still tried to make my project again a few hours later I was finished and it seemed to have saved but it was kinda sus how it kept loading and suddenly the app shut down and deleted everything AGAIN! Absolute RUBBISH I do not recommend.

Pretty good one small prob

Itโ€™s pretty good overall just a couple issues, for me at The beginning of every project it fillips the camera and the first frame is inverted. Second problem sometimes frames are just pitch black. But overall very good.

:)

Literally the best thing ever

My fave app๐Ÿค—!

This app is really fun and you could animate any toy you have like Lego is a good one to use so I really very do recommend this app! Also I wanted to say how you can change the speed of your animation!

Good for beginners but sometimes plays up

This app has all you need for a beginner. Though I would say is that it is very simple, and has no editing filters, or titles. So use this to learn, then use a different app to make actual movies. Sometimes the onionskin does not work very well, and just doesnโ€™t show up at all, also the screen freeze a lot. Just remember not to do any long films, as my one did not load and I lost it. So good for beginners but not very reliable.
