## Review summary

iMotion is praised for being easy to use and effective for stop-motion and timelapse, with useful controls like frame rate, resolution, and onion skinning. However, repeat issues include a pervasive upside-down camera bug, paywalls for key features, occasional crashes and update glitches, and editing bugs that disrupt workflows. When functioning, it yields cohesive short films, but reliability and pricing concerns limit its appeal.

### Pros

- Easy to use and fun for creating stop-motion and timelapse videos.
- Solid stop-motion feature set, including frame-rate control and resolution options.
- Onion skinning helps plan and smooth out animations.
- Fast time-lapse capability and quick results for simple projects.

### Cons

- Persistent camera orientation bug: screen flips upside down during recording, severely hindering use.
- Many features and content (music/sound, motion blur) require payment or upgrades, making some functions feel paywalled.
- Stability issues such as startup crashes and update-related glitches can disrupt work.
- Editing bugs, such as inserting a new part mid-animation, disrupt the workflow.
