  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  6. Deal with markup directly

    Add a feature which enables the user to directly input SVG markup into the application, instead of having to import an SVG file all the time. Will save a lot of time for those who make SVGs by hand like me.
    Also, I would like it if I can just switch from graphical editing to markup editing seamlessly within the app. It would help with developing SVGs a lot.

  7. Filter Fonts by Classification

    Be able to filter fonts like on desktop so we don't have to scroll through long list of fonts we have saved.

  8. Make it possible to delete layers

    Make it possible to delete layers via sliding and clicking on a trashcan. And just like in the desktop version ask ‘are you sure’.

  9. Hiding Layers

  10. Add a quick show/hide button to reveal tool tip labels

    Unlike desktop/Wacom styluses, the apple pencil has no hover state which makes it hard to know what tool does what. Would be very useful to have a quick show/hide button to quickly see hovering tool tips for each tool option in lieu of having a hover capability. Example UI attached.

  12. Long press delay to delete point is too short

    When using the direct selection or pen tool to move points the point is deleted too soon if the apple pencil is used to select it. Long press is supposed to delete the point but this happens if you hold the pencil on the point for a very short time. Please add a longer delay or even better allow the user to set the delay in preferences.

  13. Align dashes to corners and fit length

    On desktop, there is an option to adjust the dash/gap corners so that it fits the stroke/shape. There is no option for this on the iPad, and I would really like to see this asap so I can make dotted boxes.

  14. Locate and find selected paths in layers panel

    When the artwork becomes more complex, it’s almost impossible to locate selected object in layers panel, except doing it manually. You should mark the layer, group, clip group, that contains the selected object. Just like you did with a little square on the right side of the layers panel on desktop version.
    Keep on with such a great work!

  15. Share link for only selected artboards

    Currently when you share a link for review, it creates a link with all your artboards. So instead, I would like to select the artboards I would like share on the link.

  16. Find locked layers

    When I select a layer on the artwork it says locked. I would like to see an indicator in the layers panel of where the object is located, so I can unlock it. It is very hard to find white locked objects.

  18. Erase up to intersection (Paths)

    Illustrator on Ipad and the normal one really needs a tool to erase to intersection, like for example Clip studio has. It has a few workarounds, but this should just be a feature, not something to work around.

    Erase up to intersection should be a simple tool/or a feature you can activate on the normal eraser, so you can just touch the lines you want to cut and they will be erased up to the closest path it connects too.

  19. Full screen mode

    Would really love to see a pure full screen mode, and I think it would be nice to have the app go a little darker in UI than the current color. I think it would be beneficial from a UI perspective to have the undo buttons on the bottom in the toolbar or somewhere else on the button. Easier and quicker to reach that way. I think the UI would look a bit better with the top menu bar thinner. Would also be a nicer look if the tool bar was a floating panel rather than locked in place. Same…
