Artboard Snapping is broken when creating a new artboard
If you're creating a new artboard, you can snap the edges of the artboard to previously created artboards.
However, if you hold SHIFT to constrain proportions (handy if you're making social size assets for example), the snapping no longer works, even though you'll still see the snapping points.
Furthermore, when you constrain proportions, the artboard location will be a decimal point, meaning if you Export For Screens, you'll get extra pixels added to your artboard thanks to a different unrelated illustrator bug.

Snap to point
Why do you have to zoom right in almost to get points to snap to each other properly? Do you understand how disruptive to workflow this is? It seems to be a real issue when not zoomed right in to an image. This is very annoying!

moving object manually to align with another object, moves the wrong object
Quite often, when moving an object to snap to another object or anchor point, the moved object jumps back to its original position while the other object or even sometimes an anchor point makes the move instead

Artboard's anchor points not working as expected.
Illustrator 25.4.1, Windows 10 Pro 21H1 build 19043.1110
I am trying to set the size of the artboard to the dimensions of certain elements in the drawing.
For this I would pick an anchor point of an artboard and align it with an anchorpoint of an object, smart guides and every necessary snap option is active.
However, the result is that the artboard is always off.
After trying for some time I found out that it's not the anchor point of the artboard that is aligned with the other anchor point, but the cursor. And the cursor is always a…1 vote -
Smart guides not snapping to artboard or other objects when multiple objects selected.
If you select more than one object and try to snap to the artboard bounds it does not show any snapping. This also happens if you have a lot of objects selected and try to snap to a guide or another group of objects.

Snap to Pixel is sticky in 25.2
It looks like Snap to Pixel is buggy in Illustrator 25.2
It remembers the setting for new documents even when these are based on a profile where it is turned off or on.
It remembers the setting even when Illustrator is closed and opened again.
Which means that if I turn snap to pixel Off and I create a new document based on a Web preset, is stays Off.
If snap to pixel is turned On and I create a new document based on a Print preset is stays On.3 votes -
Fix inconsistent Smart Guides
Smart Guides say 'intersection' while snapping to a midpoint / origin.
Even when an intersection is near, the origin is favoured by the algoritm.Best would be to configure Smart Guides priorities to the user's needs, or add 'Snap to intersections' in the View menu.
Please repear the wrong descriptions.

Straight line extension does not work if the adjacent point has a handle
I have a shape.
Some points of it have handles, some are not.
For example, two points adjacent to the the bottom-most one: the right one has no handles, the left one has one.
This, for some user-unfriendly reasons, matters and dictates Ai to draw an extension or not to.
If I grab bottom point and try to move it along the right segment’s virtual extension, AI draws it for me and I can snap the point to it — 'because the adjacent point has no handles'.
If I move this same point along the basically same straight left segment,…17 votesI am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 27.3.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.

Snap To Grid not aligns with grid
AI version 24.2.1
OS Catalina 10.15.5
When Snap to Grid is selected, the points that the pen and shape tools snap to are not on the grid. They are slightly off. It is impossible to get points exactly on the grid. I've attached a file that shows where points snap to. These shapes were drawn with Snap to Grid on.

Snap to Grid and Snap to Pixel interaction is unpredictable
If both Snap to Grid and Snap to Pixel are both enabled, drawing tools (like the Pen tool) will snap to a nearby pixel that the tool is hovering over.
I'd prefer if it defaulted to the Snap to Pixel function, so it'd snap to the center of the pixel, but that also might be confusing with Snap to Grid enabled.

Selection tool moves objects in steps when using mouse
In CC2018 I could move my objects either in steps (arrows), big steps (Shift+arrows) or with precision using the mouse.
Now in CC2019 if I move something with the mouse it emulates the arrow keys movement, I'm talking about Twitch Badges (72x72 px) so It's a heavy issue for me, when working on big documents like 1080p this problem is barely noticeable2 votesMost probably you have View > Snap to Grid option checked, or Snap to Pixel.
Please comment back if it still a problem.

Can't move an object less than 1 pt
When I drag an object to move it, it will move in increments of 1pt (e.g. I cannot move it 0.5pt).

Offset pen tool
When I try to draw with the pen tool the point is a couple points offset from where I click with the cursor. I have the latest version of Illustrator on my MacBook Pro and it just started doing this while I was in the middle of a project. I've tried restarting Illustrator but that didn't fix anything.
