R.I.P. Affinity 26.03.2024 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Been waiting for so long. And I see no news at all. What new features will we get next? Quote 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron P. Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 The current Photo Customer Beta was just released on 01/25/2022. It's considered a Release Candidate, which I think means it will be the next Retail Release, ie; update. It fixes issues, primarily the one concerning registration/log-in. No features included. This is just my opinion, speculating... I think Serif is holding off on the features, possibly for the 2.0 release. When that will be? Only they know. R.I.P.

AffinityMakesMeSad Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Yet another week has passed by, without any, any sign of Affinity Publisher for iPad in the horizon… And, two weeks since Apple for the second time since early june advertise this vanishing product, -Publisher for iPad… Serif Labs, what’s happening here? Why do you let Apple advertise your product that isn’t near an release??? The wait for Affinity Publisher for iPad is more and more like an freakshow with no end… moi.cool and PaoloT 1 1 Quote Happy amateur that playing around with the Affinity Suite - really love typograhics, photographing, colors & forms, AND, Synthesizers!

cookepuss Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I would certainly love a new version sooner than later too. However, I'd rather that they not rush out something buggy just to keep up with Photoshop or Core PSP, both of which have just released their latest upgrades. Don't get me wrong. I'd certainly love for Photo to have a proper animation timeline for pixel art and for Designer to have true symmetry that doesn't require a hack workaround. Still, by and large, I can do 99% of what I need with the programs as-is. Unless the apps are broken, I suspect that just about everybody else is in the same boat. It's really an issue of us being impatient since it's been about 14 months since the last point release and 7 years since v1.0 itself. Understandable, but chanting "are we there yet" won't actually get us there any faster. Best to just keep grinding away - business as usual - until that e-mail notification pops up.

gonecamping75 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I cannot wait for the new version. I really hope the colour checkers are included and batch photos is included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
