  1. Add hexagon to basic shapes

    This is ridiculous, I have to use another app to create a hexagon and then import it to illustrator because illustrator is missing a lot of basic shapes. Affinity designer has tons of shapes as default and it’s so much faster to design with them.

  3. Architectural scales

    Architectural scales would be a very helpful feature built into illustrator. I am a designer for films and use HOT DOOR CAD TOOLS every day. Nothing exists for iPads at the moment.

  5. Square with specific measure

    when I want a square with a specific measure on the desktop, I tap the interface and a window appears with the possibility of placing the measure. Is this feature possible in the AI ​​app?

  8. iPad copy/paste Mac

    I can’t copy/paste stuff between Illustrator on my iPad and on my Mac and it’s a bit annoying… I also can’t really paste stuff in Illustrator on the iPad from the internet
    Is it possible to change that?

  10. Background layer in layers panel.

    My background is default white and I do not see an option to have a transparent artboard nor do I see where I can remove the white background layer.

  11. 鉛筆ツールをデスクトップ版と同じ仕様で使えたら、すごく嬉しいです…!

    鉛筆ツールで一度引いた線を描き直すときに、デスクトップ版だとその線を少しなぞって描き始めるか、線の近くで描き始めるかをすれば、元の線を変更させて描くことができますが、iPad版だとこれができず、新しい別の線になってしまうのが、僕にとってはとても惜しくて残念です…。

    このために今はiPad版を使わず、デスクトップ版をMacのサイドカーでiPadに飛ばして、アップルペンシルで描いています。
    iPadだけでできたら、生活スタイルを変えられるくらい便利になると思っていますので、どうぞよろしくお願い致します…!

  12. Jump to the canvas area where Undo Redo happens

    Tap (finger or pencil) UNDO or REDO banner/notification to jump to the undo/redo area. I.e. I want to see what I undo/redo when I have accidentally jumped art boards.

    Without the screen real estate of a desktop or laptop, it can be easy to get lost in a smaller and easily rescalable (i.e. “quick pinch gesture” to jump to art board) workspace.

  13. Improve accessibility on pen tool

    Until the new iPad update 1.3, I loved drawing on my iPad. With the new update, everything that was great about the pencil tool is now gone.

    Now I can't draw the same as before the update because it feels slack, too loose, way too free flow ... almost like it needs to be tightened up. I can't arch or make straight lines the same way I could before. As someone with a severe physical disability, I just need that wee bit of extra assistance to help out.

    Please bring back whatever you did right before.

  15. PDF export options (e.g crop marks and bleed)

    This is one feature that would really help my workflow! Also the option to select different PDF formats e.g 2001 etc would help. Affinity offers this but in a really confusing format.

  17. Allow printing from the iPad

    Please allow for users to print directly from the iPad. Right now we have to save the file and then go to a desktop version to print the files out. This is highly inconvenient and most people design directly on the iPad due to the versatility of using tools like an Apple Pencil. So, please add in a printing option directly from the iPad.

  19. 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.

  20. Magic Alignment (Text)

    Spark’s Magic Align feature is great for certain text treatments. It would be great to adapt that feature for Illustrator as an added text alignment option.
