    Initially I was very impressed with this software, but the more I delve the more frustrated I'm getting. Selecting, saving and copying colours feels cumbersome (must use the eyedropper tool). The main toolbars look good but some tool pallets seem unfinished, are cryptic (just numbers), some lead you to odd results with no easy way to return to defaults. Some things like on screen calculators look disproportionally small compared with the rest of the UI, context lists will often only show two or three options at a time even if there's only five options! Saving files to iCloud is unclear. This app has huge potential and is paving the way for professional level apps on iPad, the canvas is fluid and responsive (apart from the Pen tool which hugely offsets node placement for no reason, hence 4 stars instead of 5), the multitouch gestures work well, it seems stable so far, is very likely the most powerful vector graphics app on iPad, but the app doesn't feel fully cooked yet.

    I’ve used Illustrator long time ago in the past but I refuse to subscribe for the Adobe Cloud nonsense which amounts to daylight robbery. Affinity Designer is powerful, a ton of features, which intimidating at first but thankfully the helpful quick tutorials are linked and you can quickly search what you need to do or where the tools are located easily, makes the transition a breeze. There is no .AI export which I unfortunately still need, but thankfully, you can export to CS6 using .SVG and then convert it using your old illustrator program. My experience is that it mostly works, about 80% and it groups the layers up which is nice, but there are some weird occasional glitches that you have to fix manually in Illustrator that happens after exporting, which is usually if you have the two angle handles on a node crossing paths with each other. As long as you don’t make your paths cross into a loop you should be good. Best of all, this app is a one time payment and yours forever. None of...
