Ratings and reviews

as far as I can tell, this app is amazing! it feels super professional, and i dont want to go back to flipaclip after this. HOWEVER, for some unknown reason, it refuses to import images, or videos. audio works fine. PLEASE fix this issue. if it is fixed then yes, this is absolutely a five star app. the ability to make cycles, auto zoom, video editor styled frame stretch, unlimited layers, no ads, no watermark, etc. but as of now, until the import options work, my review stays neutral.

I highly recommend this app for anyone trying to get into animation. It pressure sensitivity, a simple but fairly versatile brush engine, support for multiple layers, video export, and even a built in camera. Not only that, it's a cheap one time purhase. As of right now my only gripes are that there's no transparent video export for Android (but normal mp4 video export is still there) and there's no grids or perspective grids, but im sure these will be added in the future.

Hey, Jacob. I started using roughanimator about 2 years ago. I really appreciate having access to this app. It is effective and simple to pick up as a beginner. That said, I think it'd be nice to a have an "erase" option within the "fill color" function. I don't know if this would be too difficult to add in the program, but I always thought it would be convenient to have the option. Just a thought. Love your app. Best, -stu(:
