Allow iPad to work as drawing tablet (screen pairing)
I bought a iPad Pro recently and would like it if i could use my iPad as a wireless drawing tablet. It would be great if i could work in the same document on my Windows PC and iPad at the same time, maybe through the cloud. I was hoping that Duet Pro would help but sadly it has a lot of latency.

The ability to work in Ai in real time on the iPad and have it appear or display on the Mac at the same time. For a larger screen for editing or showing peers your work directly using both iPad and Mac simultaneously.

Hi, Illustrator Team.
Working on several monitors (also iPad in "Sidecar" mode) be able to display a separate window with "clean preview of graphics in a different scale than the editing window.
Example of use:
1. I open the graphic
2. Menu> New Widow
3. I move the new window to the second screen
4. On this screen> in the illustrator> View / Presentation Mode menuEffect:
Presentation Mode only works on the selected monitor.This mode of operation can also be perfectly used in working with the client during corrections with the possibility of sending the client's image via the Internet in between
Much respect for persistence at work!
and Best Reards! -

Some sort of screen mirroring (to tablet) function included with subscription.
I'm in an unlucky spot where I can afford my CC subscription but not much else. Picture how excited I was when Apple came out with Sidecar screen mirroring, only to find out both of my apple computers are like, 6 months too early to be compatible. And now they're too recent to support my old drawing tablet.
The other solution I know of is Astropad, which you can either pay a crazy amount for per month (crazy if you're only an occasional user), or pay a one-off price for a more limited version.
What would be ideal though, is if Adobe were so fricken awesome and on the ball, that it was just bundled into the creative suite to be able to use an (in my case) ipad as a screen mirror, even if it's just the artboard, to be able to use the apple pencil to draw in illustrator.
I know this seems like a strange request because there's already so many drawing applications for tablets, including adobe applications, but everyone's workflow is different and combining the features (ALL of the features) of the desktop version of Illustrator with the freedom of using a tablet to draw would be amazing. At this point I have to make a decision to spend money on either a new drawing tablet, or a 3rd party app (which I don't even know yet if it will do what I want) in order to do this.
Thank you!

companion app for ipad pro or tablet that turns them into a wacom-like graphics tablet for illustrator, photoshop and other Adobe programs - that is connected wired or wirelessly to your pc or mac

I can kind of do this already via an app called Astropad but Illustrator doesn't recognize the attached iPad as a drawing device so pressure sensitivity is lost.

I have an Apple iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. I would love to be able to open Adobe Draw and either via a physical cable or wifi connect Draw to Illustrator on my desktop machine and to be able to use the iPad for live sketching in Illustrator.
