1) If you need to transfer the project from your mobile device to your computer:
- iOS: You can get to the project files through the Files app (they're in a "RoughAnimator" folder), or on the desktop through Finder (or before Catalina, through iTunes).
- Android: On Android 10 and earlier, the files are in a "RoughAnimator" folder in your external storage.
On Android 11 and above the folder is harder to find. I think the location is this, or something like this: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.weirdhat.roughanimator/files But, Android won't give apps other than RoughAnimator permission to access that folder. I believe though that you can get to it from your PC with the Android device plugged into it. There may also be other workarounds like this.
