Comments and Reviews
Incredible (and simple) animation app. Literally spent the last hour messing around, and the feel of everything is so intuitive, the design is simple, yet effective and beautiful (customizable toolbar is lovely), and it's just.. try it!
One suggestion, and I may have missed it somewhere: I'd love to be able to lock touch to moving and zooming rather than always drawing when my finger hits the screen/tries to zoom.
Seriously, I feel like I've stumbled onto a nugget of gold. Kudos to the creator/developer!
