Features & Capabilities

RoughAnimator is a versatile hand-drawn animation app designed for Android devices, crafted by animators for animators. It combines the power needed by professionals with the simplicity ideal for beginners, enabling frame-by-frame traditional animation creation on the go.

Key features include a timeline with unlimited layers and adjustable exposure length allowing both pose-to-pose and straight-ahead animating, onion skinning, preview playback, and timeline scrubbing. Users can import audio for lip syncing and video for rotoscoping, use custom brushes, and benefit from support for Samsung S-Pen and other pressure-sensitive devices. Control over framerate and resolution ensures customization to project needs, with easy exporting options to Quicktime video, GIF, or image sequences. RoughAnimator projects are compatible with Adobe Flash/Animate, After Effects, and Toon Boom Harmony, and the app is also available on desktop platforms.

User Reviews

RoughAnimator is praised for being a one-time purchase app with advanced animation capabilities, better than many alternatives like Flipaclip. Users appreciate features like timeline control, custom brushes, and strong stylus support. However, multiple users report crashes leading to lost work, an overly cluttered UI on small devices, export/saving restrictions due to Android 12 file access changes, and persistent audio synchronization problems. Device compatibility varies, with some experiencing crashes or display issues on specific hardware. Despite these, many find it a worthwhile investment with ongoing improvements.

Pros

One-time purchase with no subscriptions and no ads, offering comprehensive animation tools for a reasonable price.
Rich and advanced animation features such as timeline control, custom brushes, ability to edit multiple frames at once, and audio import/export.
Good support for stylus/tablet input, including floating cursor support and pen sensitivity.
More powerful and versatile than popular alternatives like Flipaclip.
Regular updates that improve features and fix issues, with optimistic user reception.

Cons

App crashes or glitches causing loss of progress or frames disappearing unexpectedly.
User interface can be cluttered or complicated, especially on small phone screens, making navigation and working space limited.
Issues with saving/exporting files due to Android data folder restrictions and limited saving locations, sometimes requiring workarounds like sharing to Dropbox.
Audio synchronization bugs where audio playback shifts or is out of sync after edits.
Some compatibility or usability issues on certain devices, such as specific tablets causing screen flashing or crashes, and problems using drawing tablets in landscape mode.

I just got the app and am enjoying it so far. However, I got the app to make transparent emojis. The only way I've found to keep it transparent is through the Picture Sequence. Please add a transparent option for GIFs and WEBP format.

Bought this app yesterday night and decided to animate a simple test animation today. However when I exported my project it's nowhere in my files?? (I exported in mp4 video format btw) I had to share it to my own WhatsApp chat and download it. Not sure if this is a bug or maybe it's in some sort of drive idk. Please help me or fix this issue if it's a bug thank you!
