mikaella Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Hi there! As a Photographer and recent convert to Affinity Photo i must congratulate you for the wonderful job you are doing to "free us from Photoshop" :) I read mentions on the forum about iPad versions and the teaser for Designer looks great. However I would love to know if there is an iPad Pro optimised version of Photo in the making? There are tons of photo apps but none that would suit a professional photography workflow. Adobe's apps are honestly a joke with Lightroom being the biggest one and I'm not interested in all the cloud thing. What many photographers i think could benefit from is a really powerful mobile editor with full RAW capabilites. Downloading to the iPad Pro in the field, and being able to do all the editing there would be a dream. Why not do this on a laptop? Because manipulating photos with hands and pencil on a touch interface is so much more natural. Because the iPad is easier to hold, carry, has better batter life... I love my iPad Pro but honestly, I'm waiting for it killer photo app. I really hope you guys will do that! Cheers! mad1at35 1 Quote
Staff Andy Somerfield Posted December 12, 2015 Staff Posted December 12, 2015 Hi, Yes, both apps are coming to iPad Pro - and both will contain the full feature set from the desktop version :) Thanks, Andy. mad1at35, gary1948, forgottentowel and 1 other 4 Quote
mikaella Posted December 15, 2015 Author Posted December 15, 2015 Wow, that's great news, thank you! Keep up the great work... Is there a timeline for the release of the iPad versions? Cheers, Mika Quote
william7 Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Is there a timeline for the release of the iPad versions? Eventually... The Future.... When They Are Ready.... :P In all honesty sounds like they are gunna do publisher first, then (I hope) the DAM and then iOS versions of all 4. at least thats my hope Quote
forgottentowel Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Squeee! Hi, Yes, both apps are coming to iPad Pro - and both will contain the full feature set from the desktop version :) Thanks, Andy. mad1at35 1 Quote
mikaella Posted December 19, 2015 Author Posted December 19, 2015 I really hope for iPad versions asap, as there aren't many pro apps especially in the photo arena. Designer has some decent competition but Pixelmator (the closest i can think of) pales compared to Affinity Photo. I really wish for a true RAW photo processing engine on the iPad Pro. Please Santa, make these wishes come true! mad1at35 1 Quote
soundgiant Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Is it possible to sign up for a TestFlight beta? My iPad Pro and pencil are itching!!! mad1at35 1 Quote
mad1at35 Posted December 20, 2015 Posted December 20, 2015 Brilliant. Can't wait! The iPad pro and pencil are crying out for apps like this. Real productivity, fully featured apps (not watered down) with the ability to transfer between desktop and mobile. Quote
Asha Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I also have TestFlight, iPad Pro and Apple Pencil--I would be up for beta testing. Quote

mikaella Posted December 24, 2015 Author Posted December 24, 2015 Should you decide to go for beta testing, I'd love to sign-up. My iPad, Pencil and Testflight are ready... and so am I :) Cheers! Quote
gary1948 Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 Just ordered the pro yesterday...pencil on back order. Anxious to see the new apps. Quote
Hiswe Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Then I will wait the completion of A* to buy an iPad Pro :) Quote
rederic Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I have an iPad Pro and Pencil and Test Flight account just waiting for a beta to try out :-) Quote
crookedhalo10 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I just want to add my support for a mobile version for all Affinity software. Especially for the iPad Pro, and for them to have as full featured as the desktop versions. That would be great. Quote
schizandra Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Eventually... The Future.... When They Are Ready.... :P In all honesty sounds like they are gunna do publisher first, then (I hope) the DAM and then iOS versions of all 4. at least thats my hope Sorry to hijack, but what's DAM? I thought Publisher was the last of the Affinity suite. Quote
KateBrennan Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 Sorry to hijack, but what's DAM? I thought Publisher was the last of the Affinity suite. Digital Asset Management, if I remember correctly. Quote
jarcon Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Something is running on my mind! What if the iPad and the Mac work together? I don't know the iPad version, but I'm not sure if it will provide all the tools that the mac version offer, but what if they work together and/or independent?. I just imagine working on the field, taking photos, uploading it on my iPad and making some edition on the go, then i reach home, turn on my iMac and then I keep working, using my iPad as a capture tablet, instead using my mouse, but with all the power of the Mac version. It will be one of the few apps that will break the division between iOS and OS, communicating two devices for the same purpose, a better way to create, edit and share your designs and photos. jarcon 1 Quote

The feature name you're looking for is called Handoff, and it could totally happen. jarcon 1 Quote
jarcon Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Thanks! I hope the affinity team implement this feature soon Quote
dlittlefair1 Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 I too would be interested in beta testing these apps when they are available, I can imagine the effort it takes to produce such powerful apps and then port them to other devices! With that said is there an ETA? I CAN'T WAIT D: Quote
donka Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 I too would be up for beta testing on iOS. A quick question, will the 9.7" iPad Pro be supported? Quote
