Great app that could use some features

I have used the PC version of comic life in school, and I have to say that the iPad app fills the shoes of its desktop counterpart easily. This app allows me to take drawings I've made in other programs and easily turn them into story boards. I have two features that would make this app 5-star-worthy. 1) the text fill and page fill features feel like they're from 1999. Gradients and solid colors don't cut it. I would really like to have the ability to fill text with pictures/textures for a really polished look, and 3d and material effects would be awesome. 2) this is a comic app, and straight lines are paramount... The app needs align tools, so I can snap both edges and the anchor points of shapes to each other.
Comic Life - Fits-All-Fingers - Tons-O-Fun!

Comic Life is just perfect for all sorts of creative expression - I use it all the time to create descriptive or explanatory graphics for presentations in my classes. With a simple, almost non-existent, learning curve to begin-with, Comic Life also supports the sophisticated super-users, as well. This app, full of wonderfully accommodating tools and capabilities seemingly anticipates all your needs with regard image and text manipulation. It ain't Photoshop - but I wouldn't want that, anyway. Comic Life provides QUICK / EASY / SLICK / PRO-LOOKING graphics that almost always come out better than you imagined when you started. The app is obviously well-supported back in PLASQ-land because they're always coming out with new stuff - and Comic Life for the iPad is just another example. Check out the quick intro videos - you quickly see how easy it is to use - and get a glimpse into the depths of what it can then go on to do. This is a GREAT app! (BTW - I am in no way affiliated with PLASQ, etc - my Dad was a comic artist and I am well aware of how hard it is to create good looking comics - Comic Life brings that possibility to the rest of us and is SO cool!)
Great App!

I have tried other comic creation apps as well, but this one is the best. It's easy to use and the results are great. Even if you aren't looking to make comics, it's still a great tool for making posters or photo collection books. It exports beautifully too. There are only two improvements that I would suggest: (1) a way to line up element on a page (2) a way to create and save your own layouts.

My kids and I have a blast with Comic Life. We have both ipad and Mac versions. Get fun everywhere...at the doctors office, waiting in line, day trips or vacation. As a teacher, I ask my students to create their "tickets out the door- yup I understood today's lesson" With Comic Life and have fun. And they do. Keep up the great work!
Perfect!

This is what I was looking for! It would be cool if the page turn had a sound or something though.

BEST APP EVAH
This is SOOO hard to work! It flips the page when you don't want it to and it won't turn when you do want it to. It won't do anything I'm telling it to do. One of the most annoying things is the speech bubbles. When I click on it, I want the blue outline to show up. It doesn't always show up, and that it really annoying. Please fix This! If that was fixed, then I'd give it 3 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Instead of 1 ⭐️.
Let's just say, less than intuitive.

Features are there, but not at all easy or quick to access. Of course over time a workflow can be established, however the process is currently like something out of the 90's. And a suggestion, or request, please let us import work from the previous version. I was not able to do it, and if there is a way, please explain. I could find the file and start the process, but after 20 minutes I bailed out.
Wow... It's the worst app I have ever used...

I know that the developers will probably not be reading this review, but I just wanted to let any one looking to pay for this app that it's not worth the $5! This app is overpriced anyways, and I just want to let you know that it isn't worth it. It's extremely hard to use, and deletes pictures randomly that I have spent HOURS on because the app is so hard to use! I spent 2hrs on a project that should have taken 30 minutes! Do NOT get this app unless it has improved!
A COMIC LIFE USER

I believe that this app is the first version of the Comic Life apps that plasq developed for the series. Since then, they have developed Comic Life 3. I bought Comic Life 3 and now I have both apps. I have to say that I prefer Comic Life 3. Although I love Comic Life in general, I feel that some improvements would be needed and appreciated. Basically, I just find the apps to be very touch and go, meaning that the slightest touch and things can run amok (amuck). I don't know why that is, but it is - at least for me. While writing this, I cannot think of anything else I could add, other than the fact that the Comic Life apps are among my most used apps for creating comics on my iPad. And I have several comics apps on my iPad.
