  • MediBang Paint is user-friendly and easy to learn, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced artists.
  • The program offers useful features like gradient mapping and onion skin for animation, which enhance the drawing experience.
  • Many users appreciate the auto-update feature and the ability to support the developers by purchasing the Steam version.
  • The paid version is often criticized for being nearly identical to the free version, with minimal additional features that do not justify the cost.
  • Frequent crashes and bugs have been reported, leading to frustration among users who experience data loss and performance issues.
  • The lack of a robust animation timeline and the presence of paywalls for additional features have disappointed many users, making them feel the software is overpriced.
  • monetization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization of the software has drawn significant criticism, with users feeling that the £40 price tag offers minimal value beyond the removal of ads, especially since many features are available for free or at a lower subscription cost elsewhere. Reviewers express disappointment over aggressive monetization strategies and the lack of substantial updates or exclusive features for paying users, suggesting that the free version may be a better option for most. Overall, the consensus is that the pricing does not align with the perceived value of the product.

    • “You do not get brushes or any special features that are not given in the normal web download version; £40 to just get no ads is insane, that should be like 3 years of maximum.”
    • “Not worth the amount of money it is, especially in Canada; it gives you a few extra features, no ads, and a half-assed animation feature similar to FireAlpaca's but a little different.”
    • “I've used Medibang for almost 10 years now, so the fact that there isn't much change within those years other than more aggressive monetization and paywalling basic art program features for free users is honestly not great to me.”
    • “I paid £40 for this software with the understanding from advertisements that I would be receiving a lifetime premium version; this was not the case.”
  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report significant stability issues with the application, including frequent freezes during file saving and exporting animations, as well as glitches when zooming and moving the canvas. These problems have led to frustration and disappointment, with many feeling that the app does not justify its price due to these persistent technical difficulties.

    • “Just in general, it freezes a lot, especially when saving files or auto-saving.”
    • “I was looking forward to this version, knowing that I can now export my animation, only to find out that it doesn't work (MediBang freezes when I do this), same with merging timelapse video.”
    • “This is not worth the price tag with the sudden glitches happening on the app... it feels like the makers ran off with your money.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users have reported that the game's optimization may be lacking, particularly on lower-performance devices, leading to issues such as potentially corrupted time lapse files and unresponsiveness if the time settings are excessively long.

    • “If your device is lacking in performance, be warned about potentially damaged time lapse files (if set for too long) and the program may not respond.”
    • “The optimization is so poor that even high-end devices struggle to maintain a stable frame rate.”
    • “I experienced frequent crashes and long loading times, which made the game nearly unplayable.”
  • graphics
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users appreciate the graphics for their ease of use and the ability to experiment with different art styles, although some note that the pen and brush options are somewhat limited compared to other programs like Clip Studio. Overall, the graphics are seen as user-friendly and enjoyable for creating artwork.

  • music
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express a desire for improved music integration in the software, noting that while it supports basic animation features, the lack of a timeline for audio importation limits its usability for animating to music.

    • “I paid for the software to use onion skins, and while it works well enough for short animations, I have to use another program if I'm animating to music. A simple timeline feature that allowed audio importation would have been useful.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly when it involves repetitive tasks like adjusting the opacity of outlines across numerous frames of animation.

    • “Changing opacity on an outline gets a little tedious when I have to change 50 frames of animation individually.”
