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.

Allow to import .eps files into illustrator as editable vectors
Allow to import .eps files into illustrator as editable vectors, similar like the desktop version. Would make editing ready / bought .eps files on the app possible and get so much done in a shorter amount of time. Please have this feature.

Touch Modifier to Constrain Handles to 90º or 45º
It’d shave off a lot of time and make my workflow smoother to be able to use a touch modifier (like what’s currently in the bottom left hand corner) to constrain the handles to perfectly horizontal, vertical, or diagonal angles, much like holding shift would do on the desktop version.

Shape builder tool on illustrator for iPad
I really miss the shape builder tool on my illustrator for iPad. That is the most used tool on my desktop version of illustrator. Please bring it into iPad version too.

Every time I open a new document my colour swatches that I had saved previously are gone.

Illustrator for Samsung Galaxy Tablets
With the new release of the Adobe Illustrator for iPad, Adobe should consider creating an android-based version of the app to download via the Samsung App Store. From the little that I understand about the developmental/bug-related issues that could arise, that would give greater control in making it available to one type of Android device/ecosystem while also giving greater competitive edge to android-based/Samsung tablets.

Swipe to select
Being able to let touch-input (swipes) automatically switch it over to the selection tool, and have the use of the Apple Pencil always change it back to the previous tool.

Restore anchor point long hold to delete anchor points.
Previously, when performing a long press with the direct select tool on an anchor point, it would delete that anchor point. Using the "delete anchor point" button on the floating menu is now the only option, but the long press method is just simpler and saves a lot of effort. A nice way to restore this option is to have it as a feature that you can turn on/off in prefrences.

Smooth tool like the desktop version
On the desktop version they have a smooth tool where you can target specific lines and shapes. I use this tool constantly and was disappointed to not find it on the app version. It’s the major missing feature keeping me from using the app more often

importing pattern swatches
I'd love if you could allow the option to import pattern/texture swatches to be used for fill the way I can on the desktop version. I think it's a very important aspect of design which gives most designs a more edgy look

Pen line options
It appears that the blob brush for Illustrator on the iPad has different stroke options (chisel, flat, round, etc.), whereas the pen tool only has a uniform line option at this time.
Please add the different pen stroke types for the iPad! It was such a useful tool and allowed for great line variation!9 votes -

Snap to Point/Path and Smart Guides
Aligning objects to one another could be improved a lot. Points do not snap to other points or paths when using the pen tool or when moving points around. The Smart Guides as they are now seem to only handle the outside box of objects? It's hard not to produce gaps all over the place as it is. I'd suggest an option like "snap to point" and "snap to path" (or both in one at the very least)?
