It should do. I’ve used a non Apple pen sometimes on my 4 quite successfully. The 5 being built for it, should do a nice job.

I currently use my iPad mini 4 for Lightroom, and editing with the Lite version of Photoshop, and a number of other photo/image editing apps to get the job done. I also do some video and use the iPad to create intros and the like. So in short I use it A LOT... for finer detailed photo work and movies I then revert to the desktop of course. But for out and about work, the iPad mini I use can’t be beat. It’s light weight. Fast. Small enough to fit comfortably into my man-bag! It’s been driving me nuts that Affinity Photo doesn’t run on it. But it seems that now it does on the 5. So it’s upgrade time. I was looking at the bigger iPads and they are nice, and I’d love one, but just don’t have that compactness I want. The mini slips into my trousers pocket when I need to, whereas the others don’t. I’d never buy a laptop again! Go to an Apple store and try them out...

Brilliant.

Given that there is a whole new generation of iPads out now - since 2017... including a newly engined iPad mini, I'm kind of hoping that you will be able to run up Affinity Photo on some of the new iPads.

I’m looking at buying a 2018 iPad 9.7-inch Retina. Is it ok for Affinity Photo? Compatibility: Requires iOS 10.3 or later. Compatible with iPad Air 2, iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular, 12.9-inch iPad Pro, 12.9-inch iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, 10.5-inch iPad Pro, 10.5-inch iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, 9.7-inch iPad Pro, 9.7-inch iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, iPad Wi-Fi (5th generation), and iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular (5th generation)." apple specs Silver, space grey and gold 9.7‑inch Retina display Touch ID for secure authentication and Apple Pay A10 Fusion chip 8MP camera with HDR and 1080p HD video 1.2MP FaceTime HD front camera with HDR Compatible with Apple Pencil Compatible with Bluetooth keyboards Lightning connector

oh well. Sigh... Nice response though. I initially put that first question on the App Feedback page for the Appstore.

I just purchased the app store version, but now discover that it won't work on my iPad Mini. Darn it. I'll keep it and not get a refund because I'm upgrading soon to a 9.7" iPad, lets hope that works... but seriously, why not for the iPad Mini. The developers could surely have it run on the Mini as well as the others?

Dam. I need this to work on my iPad mini!

An old question, but a good one. Is there an answer?

I’m looking at moving away from Adobe, but one thing I use a LOT is the sync between devices and the desktop, across the cloud. is this ability native to Affinity? thanks
