It is not always easy to find a reliable and full-featured animation app for smartphones and tablets. Too often, you will find that an app's description will promise the earth, but once you install it on your device, it's overrun by ads and crashes every five minutes.
Naturally, if you spend a lot time working with animations—either as a hobby or in a professional capacity—that can be a problem.
Well, if you are an iOS user, we have got a solution for you! Today, MakeUseOf has managed to snag our readers a lifetime subscription to Animation Desk for just $40. The usual price is $149, so that's a 73 percent discount that we are able to pass on to you.

What Is Animation Desk?
Animation Desk is an iOS app that specializes in letting you create animations, cartoons, and arty GIFs on your phone or tablet.
Aimed at creators of all skill levels, it is packed with tools to help you finalize your designs.
For example, you can create pencil test animations, sketches, storyboards before you put the effort into making your final design. There is the ability to annotate frames and organize them with tags so that you do not lose track of your own thoughts, and there are ample sharing and collaboration features.
Other key features include a long list of high-quality brushes, onion skin and color-coded onion skin, rulers and shapes, support for layers, a customizable color palette, and unlimited animation sequences and frames. Both PDF and animatic storyboards are supported.
When you have finished your creation, you can export the final version in video formats, GIF, PSD (for Photoshop) and as an AD package (an editable file format for Animation Desk).
Tell Me More About the Deal
The deal offers you lifetime access to the Lite version of Animation Desk Pro for $40 (down from the full price of $149).
The Lite version gives you access to the entire suite of pro features. The only difference is that you will not get any cloud storage in which to save your creations. For most people, however, that is not a deal-breaker.
