Installing Photo V1 on a new computer?

[Phatman]

So, how do I install Photo version one on my Mac, I can't find it in the App Store or on the Affinity website!

Did you purchase the Mac App Store version or the Affinity Store version? When you’re signed in to the appropriate store, the MAS version should be available via the ‘Purchased’ tab and the Affinity Store version (together with your product key) should be available via the ‘Downloads & Product Keys’ page. If you have a separate note of the product key, you can download the installer from here (no login required):

OK, sorted. Designer for the PC was in my purchase history on the Affinity website (/account/downloads/) so I could download it from there. Weirdly Photo wasn't listed, nor the iPad V2 I'd bought! Photo I downloaded from the Apple App store past purchases - but that's disappeared now. It would be a lot easier if we could just download from the Affinity customer area instead of having to faff about.

One win was getting the free version of Nik Collection to work on Sonoma so all good

iPad purchases are only via the iPad App Store, so you would not see that in your Affinity Store account (except possibly an indication you've linked the app purchase to your Affinity account if you did that).

It should still be there, but it won't be obvious. This FAQ has more information:
