  1. Pick color not working.

    Color picker does not detect any color all of a sudden and it makes my shapes strokes transparent black or white.

  2. Expand (convert to paths) mirrored artwork

    Please add convert to path for mirrored drawings. After making sure the drawin is perfectly mirrored we don’t need the invisible part. For creators lile me that need to create a cutting outline for stickers it‘s really time consuming to outline mirrored drawings

  3. Smooth tool like the desktop version

    On the desktop version they have a smooth tool where you can target specific lines and shapes. I use this tool constantly and was disappointed to not find it on the app version. It’s the major missing feature keeping me from using the app more often

  4. Rotate bounding box only

    The bounding box is forever fixed now, and we can’t reset it, the way it is possible in the desktop (and there is a separate request for that: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/931888-illustrator-ipad-feature-requests/suggestions/42167054-reset-bounding-box).
    But it would be better to make it better— by giving a mode to freely rotate the bounding box the way we need, to zero or another angle.
    One more button in the context panel, or a toggle we can get when hold the rotation handle (to display the rotation center) — either way will do.

  5. EYEDROPPER SHORTCUT PLEASSEEEE (i) *just like desktop

    Please please please give us a shortcut for eye dropper. I can’t fathom how this was overlooked. AI for iPad is virtually useless for me, and doubtless others, without it. Its nice to not be chained to my desktop for work.

  6. Select all color swatches to delete at once.

    Since I almost always want to delete the standard color swatches in a new document, it would be nice to be able to select all at once to delete, or at least multiples, instead of having to delete one at a time, very inefficient.

  7. Envelope, Warp, and mesh distort tools

    Same as on the full version, something that’s definitely missing from the iPad version.

  8. Make Recent Color section as in Photoshop

    It would be nice to have a thing similar to Photoshop strip of recently used colors, with an ability to quickly convert one or several into proper swatches.
    Probably a function that just add all used color into swatches automatically can be useful also, with a clear signaling it is active, to prevent accidental swatches bloating.

  10. Constrain proportions during resizing

    The user shouldn't need to use "the bubble" in order to keep proportions of an object during resizing.

    If I want to resize a circle, I shouldn't need to take additional step while resizing it in order for it not to turn into an oval.

  11. Background removal Tool

    One Reason I keep my Canva subscription is because they offer a background removal tool for photos. Sometimes when I am designing on my iPad I need to perform a background removal. Canva has an amazing tool for this. If Adobe offered an equally effective background removal tool for photos in illustrator for iPad it would make my life easier and would render Canva unnessisary.

  12. Hand tool and scrolling with the mouse, horizontal scrolling as well (like a computer)

    The shortcut H does not work on the ipad pro to access the hand tool, while this is the case on a computer. Scrolling up and sideways is also very important for my workflow. This is important for me to be able to pan around as I am using my iPad Pro as a laptop replacement.

  13. Videos explaining all the features

    It would be extremely appreciated if y’all had an advanced user create a video that showed what each button does posted on a ‘Adobe’s learning’ webpage or app

  15. Create seemless interoperability between .ai and .aic

    Currently .ai files opened on the ipad have their layer structure and object structure modified much like when you open files with older versions of a software. The objects are defined by bounding boxes and clipping masks.

  16. Add Guides and Rulers to Illustrator iPad

    Add guides and rulers to Illustrator iPad. It is very difficult to align objects and layouts accurately without them!

  17. キーボードのカーソルが使いたいです

    iPad版で純正のキーボードを使っているのですが、テキスト入力時にカーソル(矢印)が使えるようにしていただけるとやり易いと思いました。

  18. Add to the line snapping function

    Can you add to the line snapping function for the Apple Pencil by also allowing us to snap to a perfect arc, ellipse, quadrilateral, and other common shapes as well as being able to adjust the shape to what we want it to exactly look like. This would definitely allow tracing objects and photos much easier. Procreate has this feature but I would prefer to use this app and Fresno because of all of the amazing features you offer.

  20. Ability to link artboards

    Can you add the ability to link artboards like in affinity designer so that whatever is being done to the first artboard shows on the second. This is a great feature fore textile pattern designers so that we can work in a smaller artboard but see what the repeating pattern looks like on a bigger artboard and be able to fix mistakes easier. I know illustrator has a pattern maker but it is very buggy and isn’t as good for making a pattern tile.
