Freezing and crashing
Constantly freezing while trying to use various features, such as selecting multiple layers or toggling layer view. This has happened on multiple projects today and yesterday. The app sometimes crashes while this happens, other times I have to force it to close and lose my unsaved work.

I’ve now lost a lot of work from a couple layers freezing the app and causing a force close and restart when simply changing the visibility of layers or sub layers. It’s at random which layers cause problems. They also seem to corrupt the file and it does not even export the culprit layers to SVG to test in other programs.

The app freezes can’t do anything, in the layer contents are highlighted, cannot unhighlight them, and have to completely close app and restart but it keeps doing it after a few changes in the document, It is super frustrating and seem to happen after last update.

I am working with multiple art boards and clip masking, and now I can’t even even keep the app open long enough to copy and paste in another program to save my piece because it crashes almost instantly when I open that file. This isn’t the first time this has happened, it does it every time I work on things with a lot of clip masking. If this was a free app I would settle and use it for simplicity, but I am paying for it and very disappointed.. I tried to take a screen video but when the app crashed it turned off my video and never recorded it.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m running heavy documents but I have the latest version on an iPad Air bought less than a week ago and illustrator crashes every time I zoom in too much or too rapidly. It not only crashes the app but it restarts the iPad and once the screen went pink

Illustrator for iPad keeps freezing and is unusable. Very disappointing after I spent money on a new iPad Pro for a mobile project.

Crashes. Merges layers without asking. If you work longer hours refuses to respond - for example I can’t select different layers and tools (iPad is coNnected to power) no auto save sometimes and really frustrating. Can’t import brushes.... Maybe you can make Adobe mirroring might be much easier

I have a few layers and everytime i make them visible and invisible again the app freezes then when i try to leave the project it just says saving and stays that way.
