Please Fix the “Window Stabilizer”

Pooky108 on

I love this company and their apps soooo much! This app is close to perfection but missing one major thing for me as an artist. Sadly I cannot use the app for illustration until this update is fixed. So, I want to notify the Serif team that the V2 iPad App 2.5.2 currently does not have a working “window stabilizer.” It just utilizes the rope stabilizer. On my PC computer app, this is not the case. It supports both the rope and the window stabilizer. I hope this can be fixed soon. I really want to be able to use this app more because I love it sooo much!

Excellent program

Juan_over_here on

I use it all the time. I love it. Highly recommend if you want a digital art program. One time purchase and it’s yours to keep.

A fantastic drawing app

If you are looking for professional results with tons of control you don’t have to go any further

Can’t make smooth stickers cutlines with the new update

udithb on

Contour tool worked perfect before the new update, now new curves created with the contour tool have a lot of nodes making it impossible to create a smooth curve. As a sticker business owner this is the main tool for my artwork, I love the app but it needs to fix the contour tool.

LOVE THIS APP

ItzME 99 on

Have been using it for years! Its such a good program for the price and the fact that it’s a one time payment it’s realllyyyyyyy nice compared to its competitions.

Best design app for iPad

I switched from Adobe to Affinity years ago and haven’t really looked back. Affinity is overall a near perfect replacement for Adobe apps, especially as Adobe has progressively gotten worse, more broken, and has iPad apps that are a complete thoughtless joke. Thanks to Affinity, not only can I use a full suite of high-quality design software without a subscription, but I can also run my graphic design business entirely from my iPad. At this point the only reason I still have a mac is for game development. Affinity really has made some of the very best productivity apps on iPad. Adobe really can’t compete.

Excelente Aplicación

Con la nueva Actualización se vienen más cambios, pero en este momento la actualización no permite desplazarte en la caja de texto con el teclado de iPad. Solo teclas de abajo arriba, pero no izquierda derecha.

Brilliant app that just needs an update.

Update: I decided to just have a doc with a bunch of artboards in it so that I wouldn’t have to go back to the live docs screen. It’s not a great solution, but it works ok for now. I’ll change to 5 stars once that’s fixed. Aside from this issue, the app is absolutely amazing. Shapes automatically move to different artboards when you drag them!?! OMG it’s the best thing ever. I love you Affinity developers. I truly mean that. Old: The experience of using the app to create designs is fantastic and there’s some really useful functions. That said, the app is simply too slow. I need to be able to have a bunch of designs in “live docs” without waiting 30+ seconds for everything to load. If that can get sorted, I think it’s a viable solution for design on the iPad. As it is, I’m going to have to painstakingly transfer work onto my computer and likely jump ship back to Adobe to get this project done. It’s really disappointing, but I’m holding out hope that this app can be improved. When it is, I’ll give it another try.

making the switch 🥳

after vectormator/linearity curve added a subscription model, i was looking for another vector design option for ipad. affinity designer popped up, so i've been trying the 7 day trial and i have been loving it!! 😍 i'm definitely more of an amateur designer, but as an artist i prefer the flexibility of proper vector software over something like canva or adobe express. the slightly less touch-first ui (compared to procreate and linearity) definitely takes some getting used to, but it's a very powerful and flexible app so i really don't mind. definitely recommend!! 😁

External Monitor

Lama$ on

This app is great. I love how it is a one time purchase rather than a subscription, while still having great and detailed features. The only wish I have for it is that it could have the main UI in 16x9 on an external monitor. Great app!!
