User Reviews

Users like MotionBook for being easy, free to start, and reliably portable with a beginner- and kid-friendly vibe. However, recurring issues include data loss and saving glitches, stability problems, and reliance on paid upgrades for essential features. Common requests center on missing core features (layers, zoom, stabilization) and more brush/tool options, plus occasional UI confusion. Overall, it’s accessible but plagued by persistence problems and monetization-driven limitations.
Pros
  • Easy to use and quick for beginners.
  • Free/basic access is available, lowering the entry barrier.
  • Saves animations and supports a portable, anytime workflow.
  • Reliable for long-term use (reported to not fail over years).
  • Kid-friendly and approachable for younger users.
Cons
  • Data persistence issues: saved progress or animations can disappear or become inaccessible after closing or saving.
  • Monetization concerns: many essential tools and brushes are behind a paywall; basic tools shouldn’t cost as much.
  • Bugs and instability: glitches affect drawing, playback, and editing (e.g., renaming can block editing or watching animations).
  • Missing core features: lack of layers, limited zoom, stabilization, and other advanced tools; feature gaps noted by multiple users.
  • Confusing UI and limited toolset: some users find the interface unclear and request more brushes/tools beyond paid options.

I’ve been animating for 4 years and all 4 years were on this app. I make animations for my channel & absolutely adore this app. There is one thing though, I which you could draw in SVGs & Import them. If you have to pay a one time payment, I would definitely pay it (As long as it’s under $30)
