    Since moving to iPadOS17.1 the illustrator app has become unusable. Anytime i create or open a document, it immediately crashes. I have also tried deleting and redownloading the app. The issue still persists.

  3. color picker turns to all black

    Many times, when I use the color picker to pick a color from another image that I've imported to the artboard, instead of picking the color, it pick the Black color instead. At first I thought I was doing something wrong, but then I noticed that if I exit AI on the ipad completely and open it back up, the color picker functions normally again.

    On iOS17 public beta, if you open illustrator and create a new file right after setting the dimensions, and naming the file- the app crashes when loading up the canvas.

  7. App constantly crashes + cant save a file error

    Hi!
    The app constantly crashes on my ipad 9.
    What I do:
    1. Open the app
    2. Open the project
    3. It crashes and doesnt let me do any action

    Before the above started to happen, there also was “cant save a file” error for a couple of months, I coudnt save any of my projects on ipad.

    So now I cannot use your app at all.

    I wanted to attach the log file here, but it writes that the file format is not supported (zip).

    Help, please.

    It is critical!

  8. Selecting anything with pencil closes window almost instantly

    Any selection of tool or setting, really anything I try with Apple Pencil opens a window very briefly not allowing time to select anything. If I select by touch and hold, you have to release pressure then try to press selection before it closes. I reinstalled Illustrator but the same issue makes it totally unusable. Thank you

    There is a similar recent issue, caused by Pencil hover (https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT211774) support conflict with iPad OS 17.1 and it affects only 12.9 inch (6th Generation) iPad Pro and 11-inch (4th Generation) iPad Pro.

    Sometimes this can be resolved by going to Settings > Apple Pencil and turning off Show Effects.

    However, please upvote the problem here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931885-illustrator-ipad-bugs/suggestions/47171770-when-using-apple-pencil-it-crashes-on-ipad-os-17

  10. Double tap to deselect path not working

    There’s an option to make a double tap a shortcut to deselect a path or object, but it’s not working currently. Hope this can be fixed soon, loving the app so far!

  15. The illustrator app just crashes when loading. It opens up the main screen and then closes. I have updated my iPad software.

    Illustrator won’t load. Both my app and iPad are up to date but still not letting me use it. It was working perfectly fine the first time and then all of sudden not working at all. Please let me know how I can fix this or if you need any more feedback.

    Please try the latest update (1.3). Entire Export feature has been revamped. Please leave a comment if the problem still persists.

  17. Rotation handle behind tools-popup for selected object - Illustrator for Ipad

    When an object is selected and user rotates object 180deg with the rotation handle (handle is down/at bottom whereas default it starts above object) the pop-up with tools/options for the object (opacity, stroke, layer stacking, nudge, trash/delete, etc) is layered above the rotation handle in the UI making it impossible to rotate the object again without using the properties panel.

    In light of this, a global suggestion (may not be feasible based on how apple pencil works):
    if the pencil can be detected a short distance from touching the display, perhaps show a cursor with contextual clues as to what…
