Just voted.  Affinity certainly deserves to win!

Win 11 Pro, intel i7 14700, NVidia GTX 4060, 32G RAM, intel UHD 770.

Long-time user of Serif products, chiefly PagePlus and PhotoPlus, but also WebPlus, CraftArtistProfessional and DrawPlus.  Delighted to be using Affinity Designer, Photo, and now Publisher, version 1 and now version 2.

iPad Pro (12.9") (iOS 18.2) running Affinity Photo and Designer version 1 and all three version 2 apps.

I wonder whether the latest votes come from users who've been seduced by the 'value for money' factor. Todoist is free. ¬¬

Maybe!....

 

It might have been better to keep this tread visible at the front of the Forum....There is an 8 hour gap in quotes/replies...

 

...still Hopefully AD will win :)

I was wondering whether price would play a part too, as all the others can be downloaded for free.  I just hope they are genuine votes from real users and not coming from a click farm or something.  It's frustrating to see a to-do list ahead of something like Affinity Designer. It doesn't even have a particularly good rating, which makes it's popularity even more puzzling.

Todoist has a much broader appeal than Affinity. Everyone needs a to-do list, even if it's just for grocery shopping, the same can't be said about a design & illustration software. That said, it will be pretty sad if they win. :(

Penbook has now shot up to 22% at the expense of all the other three. Compared to the figures that @Stuart_R posted 16 hours ago, Affinity Designer has dropped by 2%, Plex has dropped by 3% and Todoist has dropped by 4%.

It's because they've sent a notification out to everyone's computer who has it installed. I know because I got one earlier...

Time for Serif's email marketing team to do the same then

We can't unfortunately, not without building a new version and distributing it on the store - which would take way more than a few days (the vote expires on 16th).

I don't recall getting one. (I grabbed the app while it was originally on offer for only a few days, but I see that the offer has been extended to cover the remaining days of the voting period.)

I meant email everyone that has purchased the app through the Affinity store (whose email details you already have)

I voted and I neither have Windows 10 or use the Windows store
