  1. See the outline of art board underneath images

    I can’t see the outline of the art board underneath images, so when an object or image runs off the art board because I want to place it there, I can’t see how it’s sitting on the art board.

  2. Better precision cursor on the art board

    The native cursor is all right for navigating menus and such but I feel it’s too clunky for using on the canvas. Or I suppose it would also be nice if the cursor could snap to points on a path.

  3. Combine objects

    It would be great to be able to combine objects into one shape, because now, it looks like you can more "group" objects not combine it into one. When you need to print design its essential to be able to do it.
    Now I can combine to one shape only by adding by Apple pencil tool one shape to another and it takes a lot of time...

  4. Dark mode - layer thumbnails and combine shapes panel hard to see

    When Illustrator (iPad) is in dark mode, the layer thumbnails also have a black background. This makes seeing objects in the thumbnails difficult. I see similar legibility issues in the combine shapes panel.

    Of course, this is when I'm creating dark or black colored shapes, or just working with outlines without fills.

    But, the desktop Illustrator maintains the light colored backgrounds for the layer thumbnails. Maybe it's just a consistency shock for me, but I'd like them to look the same...

    Thanks!

  6. More hotkeys for Patterns and Repeats

    I am a fashion designer and being able to use and make print and fabric swatches from images are essential features I use everyday. Other than that, we do need more shortcuts. I am still 100x quicker on Illustrator pc, as I know all my shortcuts which I can’t leave without. Ai on IPad still doesn’t live up to a standard which I can see myself using daily. Which is a shame, I would love to sketch while sitting on my sofa...

  7. Polygon tool

    Hi, it would be great if — along with square, circle, triangle and star — there was a polygon option like on the desktop app.
    Thanks

  8. Need the ability to make strokes smaller than 1pt.

    I bought my iPad Pro with the intention to use it for architecture and doing the line weights on them after exporting from rhino 6. The issue is I often make the line weights well below 1 pt when doing smaller scaled drawings. With out this ability, adobe is useless on my IPad.

  9. Possibilité de vectoriser un fichier PSD ou Procreate depuis Ai IPad

    Bonjour, il serait vraiment pratique de pouvoir vectoriser un document psd ou Procreate depuis Illustrator IPad, pour des logos etc qui auraient été créé sur d’autres logiciels non vectoriels.

    Merci 🙏

  11. Choose the distance between each artboard copy

    When I have some element outside the artboard it can be annoying when you want to duplicate it. It moves the outside element of the original artboard.

    It could be a good feature if we could choose the distance between each copy.

  15. Please create a step-by-step curriculum for Ai on iPad

    Hello, I received an iPad Pro for Christmas this year in hopes of learning Ai, specifically for iPad. I have learned that any type of true curriculum is for Ai CC on laptop. I do not own a laptop and it has been extremely challenging and quite discouraging to find step-by-step, in depth curriculum for Ai iPad for individuals like myself. I have looked at dozens of videos and articles to teach myself how to use Ai on iPad with little or no avail. I have reviewed the tutorials you have in the app, but they just leave me with…

  17. Seamless pattern mathematics ...make it easy and make it work!

    Make it easy to move up and down x and y axis by precise amounts for easy seamless pattern making...currently it is baggy and imprecise...make snap to grid and mathematical manipulation easy and flawless so seamless patterns are a breeze...see affinity iPad and your own desktop tool for reference. This should be fundamental to iPad experience

  18. Modify color properties of imported images , jpg, png etc

    This is another very basic missing feature...
    Imported images need to be able to be manipulated...
    Isolate select areas
    cut paste to new layer
    Move rotate
    erase
    Change color
    Etc
    Very fundamental and urgent

  19. Isolate /select/manipulate individual areas of flat png or jpg imported images

    It’s insane that there is not a simple lasso or select tool to isolate diff areas and elements on my imported images , png or jpg. This is essential. Please add select cut paste duplicate for isolating areas of imported images. Procreate, affinity, etc have this basic core feature

  20. More advanced document set up/ document

    When creating a new document, we should be able to set up bleeds,rgb/cmyk , and other specifics. We should also able to be save with specific settings
