  1. Unable to import via Files App

    Hi there!

    As I try to import a file via Apples Files App, I get this failure notice. A manual download of this or any other file in the CC App doesn‘t work either.

  2. Resolution/raster setting info unclear and worrisome

    I discovered on the help board that all files on illustrator for iPad or vector files and therefore do not need a resolution adjustment. It took me a full day to find that information and it is not clear in the app. To add to the confusion the only information we do clearly have says raster affects 72 dpi. So looking at that it sounds like the file I just worked on for four hours is at 72 dpi instead of 300 dpi like my printer needs. There’s nothing available in the app that mentions anything about the actual resolution.…

  3. Gradient swatches

    I create a swatch for a gradient without a problem, but when I select another vector and apply the swatch, nothing happens.

    (Until then, for anyone wanting to work around the bug, go to the “solid color” option and back to “gradient color,” it should work then)

  4. Lost layers because the programme does not autosave

    Multiple objects lost because autosave is not working. Incredibly frustrating.

  5. Typing zoom level 100 broken

    Repro:
    1. Tap Zoom to bring up number pad
    2. Enter 100 at a speed the average user would type (not unnaturally fast)

    Result:
    After typing the 1, it auto changes the number to 3.14% (nice number choice btw :). But this then makes it so that the next two zeros you press just make the number 3.1400%.

    One workaround is to type super fast and it doesn’t trigger the 3.14 change in time to break it. Maybe just increase this delay to fix the UX.

  7. Type font reverts to default when exiting app

    When I exit the app sometimes my work has been closed upon re-entering the app. When I open the file back up my text/type has reverted to a default font. Seems to only occur with fonts I have imported.

  8. Organizational library

    The transfer of files between iPad and desktop are inconsistent. As a designer I have been transitioning to using my iPad for Illustrator. Files (.ai) on Apple desktop are not showing up on iPad Pro. Using other platforms for organization can manipulate the image and delays production.

  11. Export Panel and exporting for artboard doesn't work

    I drag my icon to export panel and select SVG. then hit export.
    A pop up appears only for half a sec and the export is not there.
    Same thing for exporting for screens; I select the artboard - export as SVG and I select that it would make subfolders for me and show it after export.
    It opens the folder but its empty.
    This bug appeared after the latest update. I urgently need it to be fixed.

  12. Freezing, crashing, and shutting my iPad down…

    Honestly I love the app, even if I feel it’s missing a few features. The app, when it doesn’t completely bug out on me, has worked well for me in the past with past projects. However just today I was in the middle of doing something to my current project when it not only crashed, but actually powered down my iPad even though I was at 96%. Once I turned it back on I went and made sure the app and my iPad was all up to date and tried the app again. However, it just crashed all over again….…

  13. Severe optimization issues and bugs on the new iPad Pro 13" (M5)

    Hi Adobe Team,

    I am experiencing severe optimization issues and bugs on the new iPad Pro 13" (M5) model while using Adobe Illustrator for iPad.

    Issues Experienced:

    App Freezing & Touch Unresponsiveness: While drawing, the app randomly freezes completely. Pinch-to-zoom and pan gestures with fingers stop working entirely.

    App Crash on Import: When trying to send/export artwork from Adobe Fresco directly to Illustrator for iPad, the Illustrator app automatically crashes and closes.

    Device & OS Information:

    Device: iPad Pro 13-inch (M5)

    App: Adobe Illustrator for iPad (Latest Version)

    OS: iPadOS (Latest Version)

    Please look into M5 chip optimization and release…

  14. The app is absolutely terrible it is constantly crashing

    The app is absolutely terrible it is constantly crashing, I haven’t been able to work on it for monthsssssss and I can’t even cancel my contract because I will be charged a cancellation fee. When one thing I’m working one crashes I can’t even open a new one and start again because that will also crash. I have tried closing the app, deleting and downloading again and nothing works. It is very frustrating.

  16. Brush definition disappears when moving from the iPad to Mac

    Using the standard art brushes on illustrator for iPad, then opening the Cloud document in illustrator for Mac 30.7 causes the brush stroke definition to disappear and the document to become corrupted.

  19. Typing (with iPad and Magic Keyboard) is nearly impossible

    Since using my iPad with the Magic Keyboard (2+ years) typing has been atrocious. Somehow only getting worse. Work takes 3x longer.
    Typing almost never works.
    Shortcut keys work 50% of the time. Then just stop until i restart the app

  20. all of the sudden my starting crashing, can’t open anything

    I’ve never had any issues with the application for the past year. Today i can’t import any photos I get “can’t place file” and now i can’t even open a new document. It just show a blue loading circle and then crashes as soon as it goes away. Sometimes I get a little further than others, but I’m getting now where. I’ve reinstalled the app, updated my iPad, cleared out some storage, both on my iPad and cloud. I don’t know what else to do.
