  1. Would be great if you could get inspired by Procreate functions and workflow

    I love Illustrator on the PC and Procreate on the iPad. Procreate has lots of nice features that I would like to be seen in Illustrator for iPad, like how you use one or two fingers on the screen to control different things, selection tools etc...

  2. Double click on Apple Pencil switches between existing and previous tool

    I’m using Good notes 4 quite a lot with some handy feature to switch between tools, speeds up the workflow a lot, just by double clicking on the Apple Pencil.

  3. CC Libraries character/paragraph styles

    It was great if also character and paragraph styles of cc libraries were supported. This is the only thing at the moment preventing me from working on the iPad only.

  4. Direct selection tool

    Would be awesome if you could use the touch ring already before selecting objects in a group to pick individual objects..Now I just move the objects a tiny bit every time when I double click.. Annoying.

  7. Path smoothing and path pushing

    The ability to smooth sections of a path after it’s drawn is a key feature. Also the ability to use a ‘variable size brush’ beside a path to push sections of a path. The app ‘concept’ is still more valuable to me as a vector tool as far as features go.

  8. Import image? Surprised this isn’t already a feature.

    Trying to import images of boat plans to digitize into 3D models... but there isn’t an ‘import image’ option. There is only work arounds that say to import image into Adobe illustrator Draw, and that should upload it to Adobe Cloud and it should work. Well, it doesn’t. Adobe Cloud cannot sync “at this time. Try again later”
    Very disappointed and let down. I’ve been waiting years for this to arrive on the iPad, and it’s just as useless as whatever Illustrator Draw was supposed to accomplish.

  20. Poor pencil performance.

    Drawing with the pencil chugs, it's not smooth and lag free like Affinity Designer.
