Comments and Reviews
Animation Desk is a very intuitive app, but not sacrificing the features. It allows the users to export the animation "sequence" in the different formats, PDF sheet, video, GIF, Photoshop layers, and its native file format ad.package. It's a great tool for people who are interested to learn animation, or for professional film workers who like to sketch on the iPad or iPhone.
Awesome app for beginners and just to have fun within a family. Not so much suited for professionals.
I love to make sketches, and this app gives me everything I need!
The Animation Desk has many useful features that make it comfortable to use.

I am a novice of making animation. This app really helps a lot with its easy-to-use utensils. Highly recommended!
