Will there be an iPad version of publisher?

When the desktop versions were launched it was indicated that an iPad version would follow in about a year’s time.

Appearing this year (2020) is still the plan.

As that is the case, this is a huge development not only for the iPad, but for iPad users. I might call it an inflection point, since iPad will have professional-level tools which cover the 3 main areas of graphic design. I’m so excited about the coming of Affinity Publisher to iPad, I’m having trouble typing!

I’ll keep my macs, if only to serve as backup hardware for my iPad, now my main electronic creative tool.

If Serif Labs skipping the Studio Link features from desktop Affinity Publisher, it would certainly already been out in standalone version for iPad (me speculating)...

 

I guess that would make it take longer. I can wait to get that *excellent* functionality.  😉

I don’t see any need to do that as all of the functionality for all three packages is in the common core libraries, what may be a struggle is access to sufficient RAM, it may be that only newer new iPads with 4GB or more RAM can cope with the full package.

Is somebody leaving the Affinity team?

I think that post may not have been made in Josegt80's native language, and the "he" in that is Publisher for iPad.

To All: Sorry there is no news on this topic at the moment. I am sure there will be a big push from us when it's ready. Suffice to say there is lots of work being done on it.

Thank you, Patrick, and Josegt80. I meant no disrespect regarding language; I thought something had happened. This has been a pretty rough year, and many individuals and businesses have had to scramble.

I appreciate the conversation that happens in these forums. I recognize that our friends here live all over the Earth, speak many different languages.

I respect those for whom English is not their first language, and who make important contributions to the collective discussion.

Hello good morning, the first thing is to apologize otherwise I understand well since I am using a translator. Affinity Publisher for iPad was scheduled to come out by the end of December 2020, something is known about its development or when it will be.

@Josegt80 and all readers of this thead

There's no technical problems with ARM, there is simply a lot of functionality, tools and UI to write for Publisher iPad and some back end work in relation to managing large documents with many linked or embedded images. Progress is good and nothing should be insoluble.

It was disappointing to many here that we did not manage to have a 2020 release for Publisher on iPad, but I will leave it to the company leaders to make the announcements of what is happening next.

Also please do not worry about your use of English, feel free to post in your native language if you prefer. [Además, no se preocupe por el uso del inglés, siéntase libre de publicar en su idioma nativo si lo prefiere.]
