  1. double tap the apple pencil to go back one step

    For example, if you have made a mistake in what you are doing. That will be ideal if it can also be done with the pencil. (instead of tapping the screen with two fingers to go back one step.)

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Scale with percentage

    Make it possible to scale an object via a percentage input box.
    For example:
    Scale: xx % (manually input), and/or with a slider

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

    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

  10. 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!

  11. 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.

  15. Lock unlock objects

    There is no unlock objects, button / touch / gesture. there is only lock, and I thought the same would be used for unlocking the objects but it doesn’t work that way. Kindly update

  16. Stroke opacity on shapes

    Would love to have Stroke opacity setting on shapes, as on desktop Ai. Now, for example, I must create a filled shape and then add another shape only with stroke, if I want to tweak the stroke’s opacity.

    Also width tool should be a must on iPad!

  17. Importing images/files from Google Drive

    Not sure if it’s been suggested already or if it’s even possible but importing images/files directly from Google Drive would be quite convenient.
