    I thank u sooo much. I’ve been doing a lot of animatics using procreate, but I wanted to get into frame by frame animation. And after seeing MANY reviews (this is the best review and tutorial so far btw) I think the amount of money this costs is VERY worth it. It’s honestly better than flip a clip as well. I am a small animator and I really want to thank u for making my first time animating enjoyable! And it’s also much more simple than I thought it was. Thank u so much! 😊

      @@THUNGUNS I’m sure they’ve been addressed since the last time I used it (start of 2020), but the brushes would be a bit laggy when using a 1920x1080 canvas size. It would also crash when I tried playing my animation back sometimes if it was a longer video. That was two years ago though, and now the app is much more stable (I tried it again a good while later and it was much quicker and more responsive).
