Pros:
Awesome filters / illustration styles and great choice of layouts
Cons:
In-App navigation is a little too simple.
Awesome app, visibly early stage since we're missing (in my opinion) the possibility to shoot a video straight from the app (vs importing one), and the possibility to navigate clearly among styles & layouts (that bit is particularly unclear).

Pros:
Very nice effects
Cons:
It crashes all the time or don't save the pic that you want
It is very cool and it seems like a beta product, so it's need some tweaks and adjusts

@paulodef true - could've easily plugged in their DialogFlow product and generated some bubbles for each strip based on voice/typed sentence

It's been awhile since I've seen an Android first release but I guess it makes sense. 😜

This actually a fantastically cool concept. There's no clear way to share your comic strip, and apparently no save mechanism either. I'm not judging, it's a new app, but it did a pretty good job of taking a boring video and throwing it into a comic. I think navigation could use an improvement though.
