Serif has taken full advantage of the iPad’s multi touch gestures in a way that allows users to pull off all sorts of quick shortcuts without delving deep into the app’s deep menu set. After using it, I can say that it is unequivocally one of the most impressive iOS apps I’ve ever used. Like Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer brings desktop-class high-level capabilities to iPad users. To celebrate, developer Serif is launching the app at a special $13.99 introductory price, a 30% discount off the full price. It's also affordable, and you only have to pay once ($54.99 / £47.99).With the resounding success and universal praise heaped upon last year’s launch of Affinity Photo for the iPad, it was only a matter of time before its companion app, the popular vector illustration tool, Affinity Designer, was brought to the platform.Īfter publishing a teaser almost a year ago to the day, Affinity Designer is making its iOS App Store debut.

Affinity Designer 1.10 review: usability and what’s missingĭesigner’s tools will feel familiar to those with vector experience. Not only does this help with your workflow, but with the raster brushes in situ, it also allows you to add that much maligned texture or 'noise' otherwise missing from vector art. While in Affinity Designer, you can switch from the Designer persona (vector) to the Pixel persona (raster/bitmap) without changing apps. The ability to manipulate pressure sensitivity and gestural mark-making give you more control in variance and tone.Īlthough not a new feature, the ability to switch ‘personas’ in Affinity Designer only adds to the smoothness of the app, if not the whole suite’s, usability. Of course this all becomes a lot more fun and expressive with the use of a stylus and a drawing tablet, even more so with one of the best iPads for drawing and an Apple Pencil (see our Apple Pencil deals post if you need to invest in one).
