Looks like it should be a stellar app.... Controls, layout are polished- intuative- nicely done there. But, what's the point of a app that you are supposed to capture images/ media... when, while trying to use, just shows a black image....click on the capture camera icon button...and? Nadda. Nothing..... too bad.

Sadly not working on my son's MotoG13, even though it says compatible, it will open the app but then the camera screen is black and won't allow you to take any pictures or do anything. Have made sure the camera and mic are enabled but to no avail.

The people who say this app lags alot, your phone is just broke. Your phone is just to broken and has to many cracks to run this app. My Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 Model is running this app perfectly! I have made 3 stop motions on this app. Even though the feature where you upload the stop motion is not working, this app is still worth a try! (my real name is Nayzak and I'm 9 btw)
