When you set the lighting focus and exposure lock it still changes making a flicker effect. Plus you have to pay for the most basic parts of a stop motion, like audio and filters. this app is highly dissapointing. The app also makes you pay for text, green screen, drawing, and higher resolution. And if you do pay, you can't import frame by frame from the free version. You also can't import photos without paying. The app asks for too much money. The app works well for amateurs and kids though.

I love this app!!! I use it to create stop motions and it is very useful and easy to use. The only thing that annoys me is that so many cool features are only for paying users, but I get that they need that to make money. Here is a tip for anybody who wants to make cool stop motions but not pay for premium: After you make and save the stop motion, import it into a video editing app (I use and recommend YouCut). That way you can have it edited for free. Overall great app!

This is a very good app. I make stop motion all the time and have always used this app. I do highly recommend it. Unfortunately, I had to give the app 3 stars, because of the new update. The app used to run smoothly and work very well, but ever since this update, the app is slower than a snail. This slowness causes many problems with the app and it is very annoying. It wasn't an update, it was a downgrade. I will change my review back to 5 stars once the slowness is fixed.

My young boys and I have enjoyed this app quite a bit. Would give five stars but went to add music, was given a purchase upgrade screen (as expected). Noticed the "buy all upgrades for a better deal" link and clicked on that. Clicked one click purchase. Back to video, wanted to add music. Clicked "Add music" Another purchase screen! Even though I just bought all the upgrades.

I have been using Stop Motion Studio for about 3 days and it is amazing what you can do with it! I am only using the free version for now but it works extremely well and I am considering buying the full. My only issue is that you have to refocus the camera a lot between each shot which can be easily forgotten when working with a lot of moving characters but other than that it's the best stop motion app I've used by far.

Really good app. It's got a few touturials and some good basic settings. You get some preset settings and backdrops and whatnot with the premium. However I had premium and when I got a new phone it said I needed premium again, so I'm back to the basic cause I lost it. It's heavier on the space it takes up, just wish it would have kept my premium and that the features wouldn't heavily rely on it.

This app is great for making stop motion. I loved seeing my creations come to life. So, why do I give 4 stars? It's because of the amount of features that needs to be payed for. I could understand the green screen and rotoscoping. But sound effects and painting are almost nessesities to stop motion, but that's just my opinion. In full short, if your looking for something just to get the job done this is for you. If you want special effects for free, you may need to consider a different app.

It is very straightforward and simple to use. It has many options to edit various aspects of your video such as the ability to add audio and duplicate frames. One feature that comes extremely handy is being able to overlay a previous frame as you're shooting a new one which can minimize the amount of unintended displacement and choppiness. The app has features that require payment and they range from being a bit unnecessary to immensely useful additions. Overall, I heavily recommend this app.

Goods. 1. reliable 2. Voice recording when film is shown. 3. Camera quality is great compared to the rest. 4. Amazing editing techniques. 5. Other things I can't fit. Not so goods. 1. In app purchases are worse than on score creator, but at least they didn't overprice it. 2. Nothing else. I don't care about advanced editing, since there's softwares like kinemaster and videoleap. But there are things that those softwares don't have, so. Overall, great app that makes your films stunning. 10/10.

This app is great! But I have a suggestion for me and some people who did this as well, can you make a feature where lost movies can be restored? Because I accidentally deleted the app while cleaning out my storage and I was working on nascar, for like an hour and poof! It's gone and I forgot to save it. If you would kindly add that feature, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

I would actually give it a 4.4 if there was an option to split one of the rating stars. very very nice app, everyone got a kick out of it. cool thing to do with your friends, and if you have a couple toys and a device, but are still bored, STOP MOTION is the very thing to do. I've had no problems with the app other than that the audio comes in late sometimes. I would definitely recommend this app.

I feel annoyed right now, as this is the app I have been using for my short films for a year. Today I realized there was an update, and I was having fun until I was implementing my sound. For some reason like many other reviewers, my quality is absolutely horrible when it comes to implementing effects and music. I tried absolutely everything I could think of, and no attempt restored my audio quality. I feel turned away from stop motion for now. I hope this gets fixed in a new update.

Its cool, but I would enjoy if more options were available, for instance like selecting frames that you would like to make play faster or slower instead of having the whole animation(movie, short, ext) being all the same motion (frames per sec). Also a feature that allows you to zoom in or out. I hope these will be added to the app. But other than that I enjoy using this app.

An excellent app for video making, but it could use a lot of work. One massive issue I've had recently is the audio quality. For some reason, adding in sounds and music of my own sound awful quality-wise, and I'm not sure what changed. I've always been able to add my own stuff and it sounded just fine, but recently it has just not worked out for me. Really hope this gets fixed soon; if it does I'll return my better review

This is a pretty useful app for animating, but a major flaw would be difficulty with exporting the videos. Often when I try to export in video format, the video will be unwatchable (it won't play when you click on it), or it simply won't upload to my photos. Which is a shame, because other than that it would be a great app.

I'm making my first video and overall I like this app, but there's a few features that would make it feel more intuitive that I wish were present. Whenever I wanna do a playback and skip or rewind to a certain point, it doesn't do that. I have to pause the playback and then scroll over to the point I want to see, which is really annoying when you're 500+ frames in. I actually got so annoyed with it that I halted the video making process to write this review.

This is a very good app. There is one tiny problem though. Almost every time I make a stop motion film, I always play the film to see if there is any errors. Also I need to mention that there are two ways to watch your film. One of the ways is that you have to wait. Im pretty patient but if your brick/clay film is too long, well it takes like 5 mins or 10 mins fo it to "PREPARE" itself so you can watch it. I dont usually use that to watch my film but I always need cause one of the ways freezes!!

There's a problem with the newest version. The old one doesn't cut off the entire playback with the audio. Usually I scroll back and forth but everything seems out of place unless I play it from the very beginning. Even so, some of the audio kinda pauses for a split second and sounds horrible. Could you please fix this in the next update? If so, thanks!

It's a good app, but the premium is irritating. For example, when you select something that you really need to do or else your WHOLE animation is gone, and it says "you need premium for that" or whatever, you find that if you wanna finish the animation you have to spend money that you don't have. Otherwise, good and fun app. Audio is weird, but that is small.

Very useful. Would highly recommend it if you are a beginner or an expert. The only downside is that you can't clear out individual things from the cashe, only everything in the app at the same time. This results in me, who makes many things for youtube on this, stuck with around 25 gigabytes of Cache storage, and the files I'm going to need in a couple of months I can't delete or clear out the cache without Clearing out the whole thing. Still an incredible app, just needs a few quick fixes 8/10
