DoodLoop

Draw it. Flip it. Loop it. DoodLoop is a frame-by-frame animation studio for iPad and iPhone, built for Apple Pencil and just as happy with a finger. Sketch a drawing, change it a little on the next frame, and watch your cartoon come to life on a loop. No ads, no watermarks, no subscription. Your cartoons, your files, yours. DRAW • Apple Pencil pressure and tilt, tuned for line work, on paper that behaves like paper. Drawing with a finger gets a stroke stabiliser, so a shaky line comes out smooth. • A full kit: brushes, eraser, fill, smudge and blur, shapes (line, rectangle, ellipse, triangle, star and more), text, and symmetry. • Layers with blend modes: sketch below, ink above, shade on top. ANIMATE • A timeline made for flipping, with duplicate, reorder, and holds. • Onion skinning ghosts the frame before and after, like tracing paper on a lightbox. • Set the frame rate, lift the pencil, and your animation plays while you keep tweaking. SOUND & SHARE • Record your voice or sound effects right in the app and line them up with your frames. • Export clean, full-resolution MP4 video, animated GIF, or a PNG image sequence. Never watermarked. OWN YOUR WORK • Every project is a real .doodloop file in the Files app: browse it, copy it, back it up anywhere. • One-tap backup and restore for your whole library. • Import your existing FlipaClip projects and keep animating. FREE TO START • Download DoodLoop free and start animating today. • One optional, one-time Pro unlock opens up higher frame rates, larger canvases, and pro export formats. No monthly fee, no rented features, ever. DoodLoop is made by Nubisco, Lda. Questions, bug reports, or ideas? A human who actually works on the app will answer.

wibbli is a simple frame-by-frame animation studio for iPhone and iPad. Draw with your finger or Apple Pencil, add frames, and bring your ideas to life like a digital flipbook. CREATE ANIMATIONS • Draw each frame on a spacious canvas, and pinch to zoom in for the fine details • Onion skinning shows up to five frames back, ahead, or both, and wraps around the loop • Play back at three speeds, looping, in reverse, or bouncing back and forth • Set any frame rate from 1 to 20 fps (Pro) • Duplicate, reorder, and manage frames easily • Give a project a background color • Draw while watching your animation with PIP mode • Add a background image to trace over (Pro) • Choose exactly how each animation is framed when you export it • Organize multiple animation projects in one place ON EVERY DEVICE Your projects sync over iCloud, so an animation started on iPad is waiting for you on iPhone. Share a photo in from Photos or any other app to start a project from it. EXPORT AND SHARE • Animated GIFs • MP4 videos • Transparent videos, for layering in Apple apps • Individual frames as PNG images • Animated Messages stickers Send to Messages, Photos, Files, AirDrop, and other apps — or drop an animation into a conversation without leaving it, using the wibbli app built into Messages. A whole project can also be exported as a file, to hand to another device or keep as a backup. WIBBLI PRO Free for three projects, with GIF, video, image and sticker export included. Free exports carry a small wibbli mark — stickers never do. A one-time purchase, with no subscription, unlocks unlimited projects, high-quality exports, background images, any frame rate, and sharing with no watermark. Whether you're sketching a quick idea, making a looping sticker, or creating a polished hand-drawn animation, wibbli keeps the process focused and fun.
