Callipeg mini for iPhone

Callipeg mini — Pocket frame-by-frame animator for iPhone

Callipeg mini is a compact 2D hand-drawn animation app designed specifically for iPhone. It delivers a handheld animation workspace with a timeline you can fully control, an interface tuned for touch gestures and orientation changes, and tools that let you sketch, refine, and play back animations on the go.

Use your phone as an iPad companion

The app also doubles as a remote for Callipeg on iPad: from your iPhone you can flip drawings, play and pause animations, and jump to specific frames — handy for reviewing sequences or directing playback during a session.

Core capabilities

• Flexible import/export options — save and share projects in common formats, export high-resolution renders, and move assets between apps and devices.
• Multiple layer types — combine raster sketches, reference layers, and vector elements to keep content organized and editable.
• A rich brush collection — pressure-sensitive pens and customizable brushes to match a variety of hand-drawn styles.
• Gesture-driven controls — pinch, drag, and tap shortcuts make scraping through frames and adjusting drawings intuitive.
• Adjustable playback and output — work at different frame rates and render up to 4K when you need higher-quality exports.
• Shot management tools — arrange and label scenes so you can keep multiple sequences organized inside the app.

Who it’s for

Callipeg mini suits beginners learning frame-by-frame principles as well as experienced animators who want a portable tool for quick sketches, animatics, or working between sessions on a larger device.

Alternative to consider

iScreen — Widgets Themes Free is a suggested alternative if you’re exploring other apps (it focuses on customization and widgets).

Quick takeaway

Callipeg mini puts a capable, gesture-first 2D animation toolkit in your pocket, making it easy to create, review, and manage hand-drawn animations while away from your main workstation.
