Affinity Designer 2 for iPad Reviews

Lacking Some Features

~redfox~ on

United Kingdom

I have the full suite of Affinity Apps and use them as part of my professional artistic workflow. There's no doubt that Designer is a powerful app; it's great for working on the iPad and not being tied to a desk and I appreciate the lack of a subscription model. But there are a couple of features missing which really hold it back from its full potential - there's no image tracer to automatically vectorize imported sketches, for example, which is a huge pain if you regularly scan in hand draw art.

Amazing Value!

I’m only just getting going with the full suite. But so far I am simply blown away by what I have just bought. Affinity are not greedy like those money grabbing bar stewards at Adobe. Much respect guys!

Really good

mbt101 on

United Kingdom

This is a very well designed app. I have it on desktop too but I prefer the iPad version as it’s easier to use and I think more logically implemented.

Crash crash crash

Odylih on

United Kingdom

Both Affinity on iPad AND on mac seems to crash on a frighteningly frequent basis. Version 1 was MUCH more reliable. I really don’t like using this at all.

It’s great

It is great.

Layers unmanageable

Boolite on

United Kingdom

I have been searching everywhere to find how to turn off the ridiculous amount of layers formed when you draw in vector. The old version you could go into UI and switch off selection of layers in the studio. Where is it now? Driving me crazy. And the manual is less than helpful. It is a great app, don’t get me wrong, worth the money but it is not user friendly. You have to fight to find anything. I’m at the point of giving up.

Slow loading

Nady 2 on

United Kingdom

Now since I create more drawings,sketches,designs, I started having to wait 5-7 seconds to be able to acces documents or to be able to see them….

Excellent and affordable

Chezzy-chick on

United Kingdom

Absolutely fabulous app. After deciding there was no way I would pay adobe’s rip off prices for illustrator, I tried all of the available vector apps and this one beat them all hands down. Really hoping Canva doesn’t not change the pricing or the software too much…. Really is an excellent app 👍

All worth the money

Macnavi on

United Kingdom

Like many, I was fed up with the constant money grab from Adobe. Using all Affinity apps for years and I can say more that I’m completely happy that these exists. It’s even better than you can hope. Thanks Serif Labs, you should be knighted for service to the creative community.

V1 is a superior app

NetDes on

United Kingdom

V2 has no undo or redo buttons, no duplicate doc option, V2 feels like a retrograde, V1 feels so supremely crafted and grownup in comparison. And why remove V1 from the App Store? Please reinstate.
