R.i.p. Adobe alternative ..... was good while it lasted ...... I really liked the workbooks when the program initially started..... kind of wish they continued it in version 2.... but fell short by saying that no workbooks will be available.... I felt that the workbooks was a good addition to this platform..... with canva acquiring this I have little hope left in the company..... I would have much rather this gone to capture 1 before canva..... this was not really thought out by the higher ups because this software was for photographers and designers..... canvas does not even fit anywhere in that motto for the platform that you have created..... you basically ruined the brand by giving into canva..... I sadly have lost hope in the company with this disappointing news our days are numbered with this program at this point

They are not going to make a pdf version of this..... why.... ? because anyone can duplicate it.... at 1 point I used to enjoy this...... today they are trying to sell you something but rather the give you the real source materials..... oh look ..... over there..... we saved you time and effort because we made videos..... yahhhhhh...... videos and books on a product make a huge difference..... you can always delete a video and thats lost forever..... when you have a physical book.... its as good as reading the law with step by step instructions l.... you can make book marks ... highlight important things..... reference back to key important things thats matter...... wtf can i do on a video..... none of the above.... if these idiots cant comprehend that much then your wasting our time .... time to look for the next big thing it seems

i do agree a workbook would be nice..... i have the original affiinity photo workbook..... i used it and still refer to it till this very day ...... i was going to upgrade to designer and publisher and wanted to read up on both of these and the workbook was unavailable...... was a bit disappointed..... but held off on the purchase ..... kind of glad i did ..... i really do hope affinity does consider bring out the workbooks for this version i as well..... i would buy all 3 in a heartbeat just to update my workbooks

I been a huge fan of affinity photo..... and was looking to upgrade to affinity designer and publisher and wanted to purchase the workbooks and they are no where to be found?? did i miss something ??? like i have the affinity photo workbook and it is phenominal because it helped so much..... but i cant seem to find the other two books..... what happened??

yes lumafusion is coming to andriod...... but sadly its not the same version as ios.... i do believe it is 1-2 version below the current ios version.... and thats precisely what i mean..... apple get the best of everything while andriod users gets the boot.... granted i am happy that is finally coming.... not so happy how its being implemented

i asked this exact question back in 2019 with the samsung galaxy tab s6 came out.... and got the same exact answer as most of you and as ironic as it sounds they said the exact same thing back then as they are saying today.... they had 4 yrs to figure that out and they chose to be loyal to apple..... i too hate apple products and refuse to use the ipad as well..... since then i gave up on knock my head on a dead end product that could be used on andriod that too specifically samsung since they are the leader of the pack..... i now use xgimp image editor on my samsung galaxy tabe s7 plus..... so far it works for my needs on a tablet...... quit beating your heads ..... this company and many others support apple for 1 reason..... because thats where the money is...... andriod sadly (and its not only limited to just software or hardware) has always gotten the boot which is how andriod will eventually fail..... every company supports apple and windows over any other company which should not be a surprise to anyone.... take it as it is..... your crys for this to be on andriod are just going on deaf ears..... these people are interested in the easy money ..... and even if the companies do support andriod... its always half baked rather then the full package that apple receives which is pathetic.... and countless companies are guilty of this..... because their loyalty is with apple/windows.... so take it as it is ..... i am still going to use affinity photo on my windows pc regardless.... since thats the only option i have..... sometimes the truth hurts.... but at the end of the day its being realistic.....

I am debating on purchasing a new tablet .... the one that caught my eye just happens to be the new samsung galaxy tab s6 which is a beast of a system especially of any android tablet to date... i was wondering if affinity would come onto this platform in the future..... i also use another program for my lightroom needs which happens to be on1 photo raw 2019 and on their 2020 version.... i was happy to know that it will be able to be used on mac ios /ipad / pc/ android / and mobile platforms..... having the affinity program would be a sweet deal on the mobile side for android on the mobile side for photoshop needs if it was possible..... i know this is on the ipad..... which i do respect that you have.`..... but hopefully you can consider the android side one day also .... on the pc side.... i own both programs.... and the work flawlessly and i love them both...... but now just have to work on the mobile side ..... Manny

affinity is a stand alone program.... i have however made it work with adobe lightroom before..... it works good.... but i always had to import it back to lightroom which is the part i hated..... after going this new way it does work really good and saves so much time and effort... i just wish i learned this earlier..... as far as the plugins.... from my experience ..... never worked in affinity from any other software .... not sure why that is the case or if i am overlooking something that might be missed..... which is way i always go back to the original software that i started with..... adobe sadly is going into a different direction.... and after getting a notice stating the new terms and conditions... i kind of had sour taste in my mouth because adobe is not the company it used to be....and i been kind of have been scrambling to find a balance of products that would work like how adobe photoshop and lightroom used to.... but i believe on1 photo raw 2019.5 and affinity photo just made that reality come true..... i truly believe this is the best combination of both worlds

as far at the question of how to use the effects in affinity photo.... that i am not sure about since this is system is fairly new to me.... i usually do all my adjustments on on1 (similar to what i do with lightroom) and when i want to get more creative then i go to affinity (which would be the photoshop) and let my mind run wild on here... though i still have much to learn on the affinity photo end.... whatever final adjustments/touches i need.... i do once again in on1 filters effects etc......... both programs are awesome for what they provide and what they are capable of .... but its a balance that i needed nonetheless..... i wish affinity had their version of lightroom..... then the whole thing would be complete..... hopefully one day they can provide it...... because from the looks of it.... they are doing an awesome job becoming the new adobe......

thats awesome to know.... thank you for the advice and for explaining that to me..... i will try this out.... i am more towards the nikon side

i was curious about this for a while and i hope i am not breaking the rules when making this suggestion.... i love affinity photo for my photoshop needs and i love the editing capabilities.... but it lack 1 area i need which is syncing the effects on multiple images like lightroom... (that or i have not figured its out how to apply it yet).,... however i love my on1raw for my lightroom needs (because what affinity lacks i get here)..... and both programs work flawlessly for my needs but as standalone programs that work with adobe lightroom .... i just wish there was a way that i could edit in both programs to work flawlessly like adobe does..... i want to get away from adobe due to there malpractices.... and i hope these 2 companies can integrate this same system hopefully like adobe has but with on1 raw..... i am curious to know if anyone else would be on the same boat as me??

i am new to Affinity Photo..... i currently have a nikon d7100 camera that is supported by this program..... but i was also debating on buying the new sony a7iii for my new go to camera.... and i was curious to know if this camera would be covered at a later date for editing photos??
