I just got a device with a TrueDepth camera (iPad Pro, running the app in iPhone mode), and am exploring what’s available to use that tech. This app is really cool, if limited. (Read the description clearly — this REQUIRES a device with a TrueDepth camera — that is iPhone X or later, and I can confirm it works with the new generation of iPad Pro with TrueDepth camera.) First off, the developer has obviously put a lot of work into this app, and it’s a really clever approach to using the TrueDepth camera for performance capture animation. You can try it out all you like by doodling characters with its in-app tools, and seeing how well they react to your facial movements. If you want to record a video, you need to buy a modest IAP to enable recording; that’s only reasonable given how much work has gone into the app. (I really appreciate that it’s a one-time IAP and not a subscription!) I’d love to see the ability to import drawings I do in other apps to use as the features of the characters; the tools for drawing in this app are decent, but dedicated drawing and painting apps give you a lot more power; the animation tools here are what steal the show! But for making simple, meme-like animations, this app has all the tools you need. It’s fun to play with and once you spring for the IAP, it produces fun video clips you can share.

The app does what it says, got some ideas, are you able to import a photo from phone and doodle/animate and still work with TrueDepth camera :/ invisible ink so maybe photo moves along with a circled/shaded area? Idk just saying something random sorry about that. And maybe a option to view other people’s drawing and make them move

The title says it al. I even bought the three dollar recording thing and it still won’t work.

This is an interesting start. I can animate a cute, hand-drawn (by me) cartoon just using my iPhone X camera. BUT, to make a new face, each feature (more than 10 in all) have to be deleted separately. Cumbersome. I haven’t PURCHASED video recording ($2.99), so I don’t know if that gives you the ability to have more than one cartoon face at a time, but right now: you can’t. I hope the ability to delete and entire face AND the ability to save and create new faces easily is an upcoming update, or I will just end up deleting without buying video recording. Response to developer: Thank you! I look forward to the update. I will review this app again afterwards :)
