After installment you can create a new project or upload an already made one from your PC. Next, you need to set a necessary number of frames for your animation. The software allows you to draw any shape or form with your finger or stylus if you have a laptop with a touch screen. The set of tools include brush, pen, fill, eraser and marker. It is possible to add layers for the image to be more detailed.
