Disappointed with Ai performance with simple graphics
Illustrator was the first software I learned. 1988-1992. Version 4.0? My Mac-daddy Mac Quadra had a 500mb HD and some blazing 128 MB RAM. Illustrator worked well. Cant you dust it off tweak some tools to run well on iPad Pro… Better to run well than frustrate; iPad chipset will catch up. Run the beautiful basics add more as you can. Very disappointed with Ai performance with simple graphics attached waiting to process moves, Mobile Bundle? Not even going to try photoshop. Cancelling in a month. Love to Adobe. Peace

Highlight selected layer’s object
When select a path on the canvas, it doesn’t highlights the layer it is contained on the layers palette. It’s impossible find it in the context when you work with hundreds of paths. Also, please, make it in a bold color… not a slightly hue. It’s not about minimalistic UI, but about usability and efficiency.

zoom out with 2 fingers optional please
understandable that some users like the zoom out gesture with 2 fingers
for all other users - perhaps many - who find it very frustrating and unnecessary, can we please have this gesture as an option?
on average working 3h with iPad illustrator, even though I very much carefully avoid this gesture, at least 10-20 times in 3h, by total mistake I end up undoing the accidental zoom out, meaning having to zoom in and zoom in and zoom in then pan and pan and pan until I am again where I was before the accidental zoom out
this request…

Eraser tool on the iPad should work with Shift and Option/Alt shortcuts (like desktop)
On the desktop, Shift constrains the eraser to 45º and Option/Alt erases as a marquee.
Can we please have the same functionality for the iPad? The touch shortcuts don't work with the eraser tool, and neither do the keyboard shortcuts. Thanks!3 votes -
Enable import of other Illustrator iPad files.
Import/place does not allow access to existing Illustrator (ipad) files. Argh.

Make CC library (sub)folders and folder names visible
I work with various projects that each has separate collections, so I have my color swatches sorted accordingly into each collection folder in my CC Libraries for each project - which is great when I switch from Illustrator to Photoshop and other desktop programs. But on iPad version of Illustrator all swatches are in one huge messy mix of swatches without any kind of (sub)folders visible - I can´t believe that this basic functionality is still missing. Hope it will be improved very soon!

Cropping Layers
I know that cropping images is not yet a feature either. However, I have been having a horrible time trying to crop a layer so that I can continue designs throughout.
The only option right now is Transform, which makes the design look very novice.2 votes -

Join Tool
Like on the desktop version of Illustrator, where you can draw overlapping lines, then scrub through them at the intersections to trim them off and simultaneously join them into a single anchor point.
Something like vector trimming on Fresco, but for anchor points.3 votes -
Add ability to set opacity on color for both Fill & Stroke
In Vectornator for iPad you can set the opacity for fill or stroke when you choose the color that you want to draw in. In adobe Illustrator for iPad you can not set the opacity for fill or stroke when you choose the color that you want to draw in.

Make iPad AI more compatible with external keyboard
I have noticed when using a Magic Keyboard with AI on the iPad, that the arrow keys do not function in relation to typing blocks of text. How about the ability to move the curser with the arrow keys? It is fiddly using your finger on the touch screen to place the curser accurately.

Please increase the limit for Keyboard Increment
The Keyboard Increment (aka Cursor Key Distance) is limited to 1296 px.
But artboards can be much bigger. So please set this limit to eg the half of the maximum artboard size.3 votes -
Why not make drawing as convenient as in animate
I really like that in anime you can draw on one layer working with lines and filling as in Photoshop. Why is everything so complicated and mute in the illustrator?

Use touch shortcut + "stack" icon for send to back/send to front
Surprised I didn't see this suggestion yet! Dragging up/down with the stack icon to rearrange layers can be a pain once you have a bunch of layers, especially when you can accidentally select and move other layers while trying to do it. What about holding the touch shortcut and dragging up or down to send to front or send to back, respectively? It doesn't seem like the touch shortcut currently interacts with the stack icon. It would be a huge timesaver!
