SURPRISING THINGS YOU CAN DO ON YOUR iPHONE

Make a flipbook

24 FlipaClip is a free app (with pop-up ads and in-app purchase options) to draw flipbook animations.

Click the red +, pick a background or texture, choose a size and set frames per second; this can be quite low. Enter a name and tap Create Project.

Draw something with your finger, inspired by our majestic SheepDuck. Then tap + and draw over the faint ‘onion skin’ to slightly change the position or shape for the next frame. Continue, tapping Play to preview, until you have a few dozen frames or are just giggling hysterically.

Tap the three vertical dots at the top right, then choose Make Movie. Your animation exports with a small FlipaClip
