I gave a pretty bad review the last time I have faith I am adding something positive to this I have found a very helpful looking website where the developer has some great looking tutorials I am going there again later and I am going to try those out Those tutorials are for the brand new app that the developer has designed It looks really nice and I might just buy it I just hope that I won t be sorry I thought that even though the tutorials are for the new app they might help me as well I will update my review as soon as I feel that I have something to add I am leaving my previous review up for reference Thanks to the developer for all the hard work that has been put into both apps It really is a great app for those who know more about animation I have a lot to learn PREVIOUS REVIEW After owning this app for at least a year I still can t figure out how it works It seems that if I want to animate a PNG photo that I import I have to cut the arms and legs off of the figure first and then bring each part into the app then animate it But first I have to draw some blue lines around a dot in the center of one of the blank screens Sometimes the arms legs or head will somehow get attached to the part of the main body of the blue lines Does that make sense to you I m sure that most people know something about how this app works It was very nice of the developer to post video tutorials on YouTube but I have not found one that actually describes how a beginner can create a useful animation unless it s a Knight in Shining Armor I ve read the tutorials but still I do not understand I will keep trying until I turn blue in the face                     Hotjamdonut Might Help sorry4ever
It would definitely be better if it was possible to make characters with four legs             finch wolves
This game is easy and fun I love it so much My favorite thing is the lip syncing The animations I make on here look professional I love it so much that I am getting the pro version Thank you so much Stephen Keen                     Wonderful {Ethan123457}
Besides being boring the talking feature does not work right when previewing the animation     Boring 279527
Refreshing my review If you want to produce some really great looking animations get this app It s easy to use and has amazingly well written instructions and most important it s fun to use I ve been playing a bit today and have produced footage that looks as good as most anything you see on Cartoon Network Really fun app I can t recommend it highly enough OLD REVIEW FROM 2014 Adding on to my first impressions after this newest update This app is really powerful It s very easy to set up complex characters and to animate them The newly added tweener feature is a great time saver to produce smooth animation allowing you to animate on the twos or threes and then let the software calculate the in betweens The developer is responsive to e mail and clearly loves this app and wants it to be the best tool it can be It s really very well done My original review short as it is Just downloaded it Super simple smooth interface easy to use Details later But buy it                     Simple sweet SFDex
This is such a powerful app I d like to see more comprehensive mouth movement editing options Also sprite changing on characters limbs so we can assign different angle heads and segments depending on the motion also would like to see morph based rigs possible hope you still continue to update                 Nice Joevst
Awesome app                     10 10 iiTruckMan
I have been doing lots of audio recording for sound effects but when I do this it take time I do know that it s shows how to import audio by taping the question mark button the thing is I don t know how to get it in the first place so can you make a tutorial on how to on your website                     Amazing but one thing XxHot shotxX97
This app is perfect It s extremely easy and fun to use I love creating figures to use However you should add an art studio so we can draw parts for our characters This app is worth the money coming from a guy who had the app for a year now Never deleted it and never will                     Rivaled with StickNodes as the best Animation App on iOS Talkingtom3
Very simple and fun Love it                     Love it Artania
This app is wonderful for those of us who are trying to use their own drawings as animation puppets Stickmotion provides a bone system that is easy to use and a UI that is polished and still simple However there are a few additions that may need to be made 1 When you import a picture onto a bone sometimes it resizes it so that it is incredibly tiny This is fixable as you can move the picture until it is resized to the scale you want it to be However this makes the bone joints go into places far away from the model making it harder to animate We need a button that will let us scale our pictures on the bones without moving the bones 2 We need an option that will connect two joints together Example If I am creating a jointed stick an I want to connect the shoulder joint to the collarbone joint so that when I move the shoulder it will move the rest of the arm instead of only one bone by one 3 Lastly we need an option to choose a background image video for the ENTIRE animation Going frame by frame can be hard but useful if you are making a collage However if you only want one image for the entire sequence there should be an option to fill the animation s background with only that image Other than that this app is great Thank you for making it and keep up the good work                 Very intricate but simple animation app Bonnabelle Goodrum
StickMotion continues to be absolutely fun to use and it keeps getting better That being said I noticed that when substituting puppet parts which is a really great feature a thin white outline tends to appear around the substituted images usually when they come from the photo library I think This is just a minor inconvenience and the app is still amazingly nice to use overall but it would be nice if this could be fixed somehow Thanks again for continuing to improve this app                     Wonderful App Phalaina
March 2015 UPDATE The most recent version is even better And finally a few women join the cast of characters This is my go to app for creating animated stories with characters who primarily express themselves through body language rather than facial expressions original review from November 2013 Don t let the name of this app fool you It s about SO MUCH MORE than making stick figures I was looking for an app that would let me create my own articulated puppets with multiple joints that I could pose manually and capture in frame by frame mode but every other animation app I tried lacked one or more of the features needed to make this work the way I wanted it to I finally decided to take a look at StickMotion and was completely amazed at what it can do The stick man is jut the beginning it s the digital armature for some amazing puppetry Once I figured that out I realized how vastly under priced the app is The interface is a bit intimidating at first but the developer has great tutorials and yet they only scratch the surface of what the app can actually do I love that it comes with usable characters esp the fantastic dragon but I do wish there were a few women among them                     Amazing app for customized puppets Marehaven
To Marezeedotes when you select an image a wrench button will appear Press it and then use your finger to position the image It s much easier than the old sliders they used to restrict how far you could move things Great update keep up the good work                     Amazing Value Hawaiian-Poss
Love it                     Love it DJJOHNNY t
I ve been daydreaming for the last year about an app that would allow me to animate drawings humanish looking glitch artifacts and this is exactly what I needed The non moving anchors are a nice addition to prevent the screwy over the top movements that would otherwise be common Also very happy that I can run video in the background so there s a cool multilayering of animation going on                     Read My Mind C. Russell
This app is hands down the BEST animating program Keep up the good work                     Amazing Eliean
I ve tried many animation apps and this just blows them out of the water Complete fun It s very easy to use I use this with Sketchclub to design characters to animate as well I m loving this                     iOS Stickmotion Pixar The Organist
Finally A good animation app Way better than doink Please add the option to export to png image sequences transparent background Intuitive app Good options for export otherwise Stable 2d animation app                 Export Alpha Please Ray96m
Could you fix the duplicating glitch please It duplicates a frame and it looks really cheesy         Great but Hero -o- time
I ve tried all the other animation apps but this one almost gets it right It s great for cut out style animation with a basic but usable forward kinematic system for customizing your own creations                 Great animation app metaldude333
You should update create your own character and also coloring on it Don t forget creating your own backround too                     Needs another update Sony654
I figured out how to do parts of it before i realized there are decent tutorials in help I not an artist but i did alright Well done Oh I would like to have color change in segments                 Nicely done TW Smith

This is the best animation app I have seen for ipad I haven t really seen anything else that let s you work from assets as well as this If you want to animate on an ipad but don t want to draw every frame this is your app Wish list I would love to be able to make custom mouths turn off all the premade stuff swap out parts of my character mid animation be able to see tween frames and even change some to key frames If I want to Bonus I d love to make repeating or random animations like a tire spinning random blinks hair movement a fan spinning Also layered or canned animations would be great So I can make a walk cycle as an animation and then just move the guy across the screen Lastly an facial expression switcher so I can make several versions of a face and be able to switch between them mid talking                 Best so far Mastafingas

To HawaiianPoss Thank you for the suggestion I will check it out Nope still not right Still needs the xoffset and the yoffset in order to move objects to the correct position In the videos Tutorials 2 Figure Creation Parts 1 and 2 the demonstration shows how to position the Knights Head closer to his torso by using the yoffset When I try to follow the video I am able to import the Knights head and rotate it upright but I cannot move his head closer to his torso because there are no x and y offsets to use to move it I just purchased the app so I am not familiar with it to start with I am just trying to follow the videos and learn the process of how to use the app from start to finish Thanks Updated comments Okay I have found some sliders to position objects I found them by going to the app support feature right here in the iTunes Store which takes you to a support website It is a learning thing And I must admit that reading the written tutorial inside the app is a help but you have to read it thoroughly There is so much here that it takes time and patience Being in a rush to learn everything at once is just not practical Especially for a beginner like me My previous comments are below Thanks New comment I read the entire app tutorial that was provided with the app I also went back to the video tutorials 1 and 2 from the tube and I watched them again ONE THING THAT I HAVE NOTICED is that the Xoffset and the Yoffset sliders which are shown in the videos seem to be missing in the updated version of the app I tried to find information about the offset sliders in the app tutorial but so far I have not found anything about any changes to the offset sliders in the updated version of the app nor have I found any information at all about the offsets or any type of sliders that would move an object or body part up and down or side to side I was looking for the offset sliders in order to position the image of the figures head as I was following the video tutorial step by step But I could not find the sliders nor any information about them in the app I will keep looking Here is my first review I just downloaded this app and I have not tried it out yet But from the reviews and watching the videos on the tube I believe I will like it So I will definitely update my review and rate it as soon as I check it out By the way I have Not written this because the app is bugging me for a review I havent even opened up the app yet I was just excited about the new download and decided to do a preliminary review Thanks              SOMETHING IS MISSING 3615
