Frank212 Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Hello, Just wondering what is happening with AP development. It seems to have really slowed down? Is there a major version update in the works? Regards, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Even though Affinity Designer for iPad and Affinity Publisher for Mac and Windows are both expected in the not too distant future, it’s clear that a great deal of work has already gone into the free 1.7 updates for Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo. Given the small size of the development team, I think they’re doing all they can.

SrPx Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Plus, and in consonance with Alfred's comment, consider that they are making a huge push for releasing a first beta of Affinity Publisher and some other stuff.

carl123 Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Versions 1.7 of AP and AD are both expected to be with us next year and will contain some new features, maybe not all of which we have heard about in the forum. I think we can only expect bug fixes for version 1.6 until then If, as Alfred mentions, "Affinity Designer for iPad and Affinity Publisher for Mac and Windows are both expected in the not too distant future" then I would expect future development of all products to then be even slower as there will then be 3 more products to support, maintain and upgrade and the Affinity team is only a small team to do all that work. It may be best to find alternative ways to do things if the features you want are not in AP at the moment. Alternative ways either within or outside of AP Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
