Please note:
There are no limitations on the number, size and complexity of your animations, figures and props other than available memory and storage space!
*StickMotion is a 2D animation App. Figures, however, can be assigned a 'depth' and will thus appear behind or above the screen when animations are exported in the anaglyph (red/blue) or side-by-side 3D formats.
#StickMotion can produce video and images in resolutions up to 1920x1080 from retina devices and 1024x576 from non-retina devices

Ratings and Reviews
Very intricate but simple animation app!
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!
Glitch: Doesn’t use my headphones.
I’d give it a much higher rating if this bug was fixed!
My headphones are connected but it’s playing out of my iPad’s speakers.
This may not be a big deal to you but to me it’s a deal breaker!
If you’re a headphones-only person like me don’t buy this app until it’s fixed. (I’m using an 8th-gen iPad btw)
It’s good but...
It’s a good app but there’s one thing. I can’t watch the animation! I made an animation but I can’t watch THE ANIMATION AHHHHHHHH!!! I want a refund cuz it no work
