## RoughAnimator Reviews in South Africa

### ***** "Amazing update"
I don’t know when the update added but I love it! The update is that you can now import videos WITH audio not to mention that RoughAnimator has a dark mode! Wow I’m impressed!! Love it!
-- khanyisle, 2022-10-03

### ***** "Fine and dandy"
Nothing more can be said, it’s just fine and dandy for rough animation. A minor complaint would be that there isn’t a blur tool/feature (soft edge pen, I know this is meant for rough animation so you could do the not rough stuff in your main application but it’s a thought.
Another thing is that you can’t delete or edit folders but I don’t use folders that much so meh.
Thanks dev

### ***** "Great for frame by frame animation"
I love this app and feel like it’s very similar to TVpaint. It’s not as powerful as TVpaint but for rough animations this is amazing. The only thing this app is missing is having the option to set pen pressure to affect line weight
