Apple’s Mac App of the Year? Catalina

[Sandemen]

new on this forum,

I just bought affinity designer and photo because adobe photoshop stand alone cs6 is not working in the latest iOS Catalina

Strange that apple made affinity the app of the year but it is not working on their own latest iOS Catalina

is there an update or work around?

Thanks

But what does this have to do with Affinity and its award?

All the Affinity Apps work with Catalina... I'm using Catalina and Designer, Photo and Publisher have been trouble-free, so far, touch wood!

Or did you mean iOS 13 on iPad?? I'm using Catalina on an iMac.

Our apps also support iOS13

Especially Publisher here (well maybe one future day)!

Technically, wouldn't that now be iPadOS 13? I don't think there is an iOS 13 version that runs on iPads available from Apple anymore. Am I wrong about that?

First, I agree, this thread is not about AP.  As you stated trouble-free, may I ask how you edit Apple Photos and save to Photos, if you do so, in Catalina?  Serious question, many would like to know.

I don't use Photos.... as an ex-Aperture user I never, ever got along with it. It's why I'm using AP and, for renaming, Graphic Converter. Filing is, unfortunately, done manually for now (I'm a home-user, not a pro, but still have a lot to wade through!!). Hoping AP comes up with a DAM one day.

As you , use AP as hobby, but depend on iCloud as my main storage service and Apple’s iCloud and Photos to manage my photos, hence the problem.  Just speculation, if Affinity, in the future releases a DAM, I would suggest it would be a separate, but welcome App.  I would purchase it if allow iCloud backup/storage.  Google, Dropbox and others, I don’t want to pay. iPhone, iPad Pro and iMac, one file system.

I'd pay for an Affinity DAM too! I think a lot of people would. Wish Apple would have sold them the rights to Aperture - would have solved a lot of issues!

I don't use iCloud for photos either - bought a Synology server and have set up my own "personal" cloud which the rest of the family can use too. It works well and there's no monthly fee.
