## Review summary

Users praise Onion Cam2 as an easy, beginner-friendly stop-motion tool with useful onion-skin framing and solid output for projects. However, recurring problems include stability crashes after updates, export failures, a front-camera flip with no rotation, removal of in-app previews, and footage that plays too fast unless many frames are captured.

### Pros

- Easy to use and beginner-friendly.
- Onion skin feature helps planning and timing of frames.
- Produces good quality stop-motion videos and is great for beginners and classrooms.
- Ability to view and rearrange frames in the history timeline.
- Helpful for art projects and group/competition work.

### Cons

- Stability issues after updates: app often crashes or shows a white screen on launch.
- Export failures: videos won’t export or get stuck after ads.
- Front-facing camera option flips the image upside down with no rotation control.
- No in-app preview: you must export to see the video, making iteration slower.
- Footage runs too fast unless you take a very high number of frames.
