The Apple Pencil is why I prefer Affinity on iPad over my PC or MAC versions.

No I'm just making sure we are on the same page. It should be working fine when double tapping with your finger please could you provide a screen recording that shows this isn't working?

Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

@Callum, no - I just tried it. I double-tapped all over the grid: edges, intersections of thirds lines, in the middle, on the handles … none saved the crop.

Just to be on the safe side: the double tap gesture works when tapping inside the cropped area, not outside or at the edges.

@Callum: this is a current model iPad Air (5th gen), 64 GB, running iPad OS 15.5. I’m running Photo 1.10.5.280.

It seems you have a protective cover both on front and on backside of the iPad, and you are holding it in one hand.

All these factors could lead to issues to correctly detect touch gestures. It happens to me (long time ago, not in this case)

Could you try for a test to remove all these protective covers, and put the iPad on a table (not holding it in a hand)?

I know this advice may sound strange to you, but it helped me (i personally owned 6 iPads over the years, 3 still in use) more than once. Only the pressure at the edges by holding in one hand caused a lot of issues. Same caused by some accumulated dust on the backside of another cover. 

I tested the crop function again on iPad 2017, iPad Pro 10.5“ 2018, iPad Air G5 / 2022 (in a Logitech keyboard hull), and it worked well on all of these.

iPad OS latest and one version older.

This is how it should work, with your finger, double tap in crop grid completes the crop OR tap any other tool to complete the crop. As stated above it may be your screen cover which is stopping your iPad working properly, alternatively, whenever an IOS device misbehaves it is always worth doing a Forced Restart to see if that fixes your iPad. I have had 5 iPads, never needed a screen cover.
