Description
Been using RoughAnimator – animation app for a couple months now. It’s basically a full-featured hand-drawn animation tool for Android. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kind of thing.
Here’s what you can do: There’s a super handy timeline with unlimited layers, so you can do pose-to-pose or straight-ahead animation. It’s got onion skinning, video import for rotoscoping, custom brushes, and a bunch of other pro-level features. Took me a while to figure some of it out, but once you get the hang of it, it’s really powerful.
Look, if you’re an animator – even a beginner one – you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the ads can get annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want to get into hand-drawn animation on your phone or tablet.
Summary
So here's my honest take on RoughAnimator - animation app. I've tested a bunch of animation apps and this one's up there with the best. The tools are super robust but it's still pretty user-friendly. I like how you can import video for reference and the onion skinning is a game-changer. Not gonna lie, the learning curve is a bit steep, but once you get the hang of it, it's a really powerful app. Only real downside is the ads can be intrusive if you don't pay. But overall, I'd say it's one of the best animation apps on Android.
