Why cartoon characters need locked references too.
Cartoon styles have distinctive proportions, line weights, and color palettes. When AI generators render each frame independently, these details shift -- your character looks "off" even if the style is broadly correct.
Character App locks the exact reference so proportions, colors, and design details stay identical across every generation.
