Skew/transform effects (iPad)
Distort effects such as skew, warp, blend
I needed to use a warp/skew function on type on iPad but didn’t have a pc handy in time to do it however it would be a great feature to have on iPad and I wouldn’t imagine it would be incredibly hard to add.

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.

Enable transform tool to move elements by a specific measurement (Move Dialog)
I am a pattern designer and it would be so helpful if the Properties panel, you could type in a measurement into the transform tool, to make your elements move a specific amount that you designate. For example if I have an element on the left of my screen and I want to duplicate it and move it to the right to make a repeating pattern — let’s say I’m using an 8” screen size — it would be wonderful to add to the x or y numbers +8” or +4”, etc.
This would be a great feature for surface…

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.

Support for keyboards
If you had the ability to utilize an attached keyboard on the iPad it would enable there to be a cohesion in learning shortcuts and there would be less of a learning curve between the two versions of the software, as well as enhancing the iPad software itself.

Add the option to change the dpi of document because we only have 72 dpi on ipad. We somewhat need to have 300 dpi.
i have recently purchased illustrator and thought that i can design tshirts using my ipad but it sucks since the dpi is fixed to 72. Can you please add an option to change it and set to highest dpi like 300. it would be a great help for designers like me. Thank you.

Mouse support
I use my Bluetooth mouse for almost everything on my iPad and not to mention it’s also plays a key role in creating graphics on my desktop illustrator as well. So it would be very very nice to see an option where I can move my anchor points or draw a line with my mouse on the iPad as well.
Please do consider this option it would mean a lot to us!

Toggle to disable closing of pencil lines
In the full version of Illustrator it is possible to turn off pencil lines from auto-closing by checking the “close paths” toggle off in the pencil options but it seems there is no option to turn this off for the pencil tool on iPad Illustrator. Very annoying when creating lots of short strokes and a good amount of them close into a shape.

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...

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

Perspective tool
Add a perspective tool, the only current app I know of on iPad is sketchbook and I really think illustrator could improve on this lots by adding a physical scale you could add when drawing products or people it would be a very welcomed feature
