RoughAnimator FAQ

Is RoughAnimator legit?
🤔 The RoughAnimator app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
So when I saw the pictures and videos of this app, I was so excited to get it. It was the animation style that I really liked. I didn’t really like flip clip when I looked it. The only problem with this app is I need to spend money, but the money was so worth it. It was a little complicated by understanding without any learning video they will write. It’s for professional, but simple. It’s so simple and this is the best quality app that I could find on the App Store on my iPad because I love animating so much so if you really don’t care about my money, I, I would like you to get this app. It’s really good quality better than flip clip even though it got 5000 downloads and this one only has 1000 downloads but still recommend this app.
THE BEST ANIMATION APP
what the title says,!!!
It was good
The app was so awesome to use! It just closes me out sometimes but other then that rough animator is good! 😁👍
Pretty cool
I’m so glad the canvas can expand to be the full screen! You should show this in a video for the app, like some apps have that 30 second preview video. That is the honest reason I slept on buying this for a while lol the screenshot looked so cramped lol now that I know this and discovered that there is actually a moveable anchor with lasso, I had to drop a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ thanks for being a boss and making this just a one time purchase. It’s so sad that I feel that is thank worthy honestly lol stupid society… but yep, this has every tool i used in a different subscription app except a microphone function to record audio directly. If that is possible to add, please consider doing so. That would complete me
Umm
I love the app I LOVE IT and the new movie but i cant draw anymore. When i try to draw it dose not. I nont know how it just happend.
Procreate dreams not focused on hand drawn workflow
Dreams works like a video editor while rough animator can edit and draw effortlessly the struggle for the most basic tasks like adding image sequences or extending the timeline is non-existent in dreams. You CAN do these tasks in dreams but the work around is so unintuitive its quite frustrating, well done Jacob. The UI looks nicer in dreams but the functionality is terrible.
The $5 is worth it!
I’ve used RoughAnimator for alot of my animations and i’ve got to say, it’s like a better FlipaClip! There’s no problems i have with it so far, you just need to get the hang of it and then you’ll be a natural! Definitely buy this app if you’re looking for a better FlipaClip!
Don’t ever leave it behind! I love this app!!!!
I’ve been using this app for a loooong time. It’s my all time favorite animation app to use. I refer it over any other. It’s easy to use, very simple and very very useful for my animations on YouTube! Look, Flipaclip could never be this good! I appreciate the developers and all they do for this amazing gift of an app!!! Keep up the great work!!!!
Corrupt File after update
Rough animator has been my program of choice for years, however the recent updates have been corrupting a lot of my recent files losing weeks of work.
Great but can’t draw currently
I love this app but I come back after a year of not using and now I can’t draw anything. The app is updated, buttons work, the layer says there is data on it.. but there is visibly nothing on screen.. Ultimately forcing me to give this feedback and use another app. Please look into a fix, I would love to continue using.
