Bryanmcf2 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Good morning, I've been an Adobe user for a long time and I just picked up a MacBook Pro. I then purchase my adobe programs to find out that Adobe Creative Cloud converts them to a trial versions after 7 days because they now required a subscription which is definitely too costly for me so in having a conversation with a friend of mine yesterday he forward the link and here I am and was wondering isn there's a trial version to the suite package that I can download and tryout for the next 30 days? Thanks Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfred Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, Bryan. There are fully-functional trial versions for each of the apps in the Affinity Range. They’re limited to ten days rather than thirty, but the shared file format means that files saved during a trial of one app can be reopened and further edited during a subsequent trial. https://affin.co/designertrial https://affin.co/phototrial https://affin.co/publishertrial Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Hello and welcome to the forums @Bryanmcf2, There are trial versions for each of the applications over at the Affinity main site, check the Photo, Designer and Publisher pages at the bottom of each, there will be links to the trials there. Note that each application is good for 10 days from when you first start it. I would suggest going from one to another.

Bryanmcf2 Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 Thanks Old Bruce I'll definitely download and check them out later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 51 minutes ago, Bryanmcf2 said: I'll definitely download and check them out later today. Don’t try them all at once! The trial clock for each one runs continuously from the moment you first launch the app, so if you use one of them briefly and don’t come back to it until more than ten days later you’ll find that the trial has expired. 3 hours ago, Alfred said: They’re limited to ten days rather than thirty, but the shared file format means that files saved during a trial of one app can be reopened and further edited during a subsequent trial.

As Brian mentioned, you can get the Trial from the Affinity Store site. Also, downloads from the Mac App Store, the Microsoft Store, and the iPad App Store operate initially in Trial mode for 30 days.

Nils Austa Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 This topic did not help me to find the trial download page. It is January 2024 now. I had older version of Designer 2 on my hard drive still not installed. I installed it and it directed me to this page to update: https://store.serif.com/en-us/update/windows/designer/2/ I wanted to download without Microsoft store.

You can download a 30 day free trial from there for the Universal Licence, which will give you access to all three apps on Windows, Mac and iPad. (If you don't want the whole package, just download the one(s) you want.)
