FAQs

Is the animation app free?
Yes, the StikBot Studio animation app is free to download and use for both iOS and Android devices.
How do I create a stop-motion movie?
Download the StikBot Studio app, pose your StikBot, capture individual photos frame by frame within the app, and the app will compile them into a movie.
Can I use StikBots with other toys?
Yes, StikBots are designed to be highly versatile and can be incorporated into various play scenarios and stop-motion projects with other toys.
What age is this product recommended for?

How durable are the StikBots?
StikBots are made from durable plastic. While they can withstand regular play, joints and suction cups should be handled with care to ensure longevity.
Troubleshooting
StikBot won't stick to surfaces
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. If the suction cups feel dusty, gently wipe them with a damp cloth and allow them to dry completely.
App not recognizing the StikBot or features
Make sure you have the latest version of the StikBot Studio app installed. Check your device's camera permissions for the app. Restart the app and your device.
Animation appears jumpy or inconsistent
Ensure each frame is captured with minimal movement between poses. Use consistent lighting and a stable setup. Experiment with smaller movements per frame for smoother results.
Difficulty posing limbs or neck
Gently articulate the joints. Avoid forcing them past their natural range of motion to prevent damage.
