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(:

Incredibly good, Definitely better than Flipaclip. The UI is super simple and is easy to access. The brush settings/parameters are miles better what other apps have to offer+you can import audio! Though I would've given it five stars if I could use my drawing tablet, for whatever reason, it doesn't work with it even though it's an android DT, it acts as if it's still in portrait mode and completely ignores the other half of my tablet.

Look, I like the app, but when I was working on an animation, I had digitally downloaded it a few days ago, it did not load correctly or something due to it having some layers blank and all the names erased. It also wouldn't allow me to play it back. Can you guys please fix this. This has happened multiple times now.
