Reviews for Animation & Drawing by Do Ink

Love it, but…
So I practically grew up using Doink, first when it was a browser program and social media site! I really miss those days. Now I just use the app, which, I was hoping a couple of small improvements could be made. When I zoom in or out on my drawing, the brush size does not stay consistent. I would like to be able to zoom in and have the brush stay proportionate to the rest of the lines in the drawing, so that I can have a consistent looking drawing. I would also appreciate pressure sensitivity compatibility. Also, I would like a new dimension preset that aligns with the screen measurement of TikTok/reel videos, since they are where most users will probably be posting animations the most these days. Lastly, It would be great if I could change the background color of my canvas to a flat color instead of the checkerboard without drawing a rectangle and having to duplicate it for all the frames. When I select background color, it just stays the checkerboard and only becomes the color I selected in my animation preview but not while I’m working on the canvas. Thank you!

You are the worst animation creators in the world
When I started playing the game, everything kept glitching. You are the worst at making games like this
