iOS Illustrator has no Apple Pencil specific features
I find the Creative Cloud apps on my Apple iPad Pro do not proper take advantage of the Apple Pencil. Other apps can distinguish between Pencil input and finger inputs to provide better and more intuitive drawing. There are finger-Pencil combinations, finger vs Pencil input choices, and so on. For example, one of the more useful options I have seen in other drawing apps are the Pencil as the normal brush while the single finger is used for smudging or erasing. Adobe should adopt something like this. Optimally, a separate selection for each Pencil and finger inputs. Additional actions could…

Colorize 1 bit tiff
Illustrator on the desktop has always been able to colourise (colorize) bitmap or 1 bit tiff images - this is really useful for recolouring logos or create collages and has been a part of my workflow for years. I would really like this ability it the iPad version of Illustrator.

Enlarge PDF export function required
Hi, While we want to export the PDF we are using 'Save a Copy' with no issues, but we need a function to enlarge the result of the pdf as 2x, 3x, 4x ...... 12x because while we creating some artwork for Outdoor branding that may be more than 50 feet we have to create the artwork in 50inches and 50feet is just 12x of the 15inch, so if this function would come in the software will help a large number of users who are working for Branding & outdoor artworks.
this function was there in Print PDF by inputting…

Feature to to disable/hide unused fonts
This is definitely not the first time this has been suggested, but at this point in 2023, it’s crazy that there’s not a way to hide unused or rarely used fonts from the main font menu. If I want to find a font, I have to wade through hundreds of system fonts, including things like Noto Linear A, which is an undeciphered script, to get to the font I want.
Ideally, this would be a toggle button, similar to favorites, where you can click a toggle to hide the font, and have them in a separate “Hidden” category where they…

Being able to import Fresco iPad brushes to iPad illustrator and save them permanently to the illustrator brush library.
Fresco has a great set of brushes. It would improve Illustrator on the iPad immensely if they were interchangeable and could be added to the illustrator iPad brush menu permanently.

Highlight selected layer’s object
When select a path on the canvas, it doesn’t highlights the layer it is contained on the layers palette. It’s impossible find it in the context when you work with hundreds of paths. Also, please, make it in a bold color… not a slightly hue. It’s not about minimalistic UI, but about usability and efficiency.

Eraser tool on the iPad should work with Shift and Option/Alt shortcuts (like desktop)
On the desktop, Shift constrains the eraser to 45º and Option/Alt erases as a marquee.
Can we please have the same functionality for the iPad? The touch shortcuts don't work with the eraser tool, and neither do the keyboard shortcuts. Thanks!3 votes -
Join Tool
Like on the desktop version of Illustrator, where you can draw overlapping lines, then scrub through them at the intersections to trim them off and simultaneously join them into a single anchor point.
Something like vector trimming on Fresco, but for anchor points.3 votes -
Please increase the limit for Keyboard Increment
The Keyboard Increment (aka Cursor Key Distance) is limited to 1296 px.
But artboards can be much bigger. So please set this limit to eg the half of the maximum artboard size.3 votes -
ability to set repeat distance to specific value
It would be very helpful to be able to set the repeat distance (space between repeated objects) to a specific value or have the distance snap to the grid when snap to grid is active.

Did Adobe really made this? It feels like a knockoff app.
Illustrator iPad feels like one of those ‘free lite versions’ you can download before purchasing a full version.
Limited EVERYTHING, buggy, likes to quit on you half the time, and they charge you money for it.

Keep width profiles and stroke settings
Allow option to keep width profiles and stroke settings constantly active when drawing. So annoying that it reverts back to basic every time I make a new stroke with pencil or pen tools! It makes it hard to draw!

The app settings button is a button within a button. Fix it.
So theres an issue with the app settings button in the navigation bar. Its the gear icon button. It is a button within a button. This is called bad design and we need to fix it. Its bad design because I have to click a button to get to the app settings and then I have to click another button to get to the app settings when the first button should have gotten me to the app settings but it didn’t.
If I click on the gear icon, which is my app settings button, I am given a pop up…

Blend Tool (for Illustrator iPad) Should also work for Font
at the moment blend for Illustrator iPad works only for Paths and isn’t applicable for fonts unlike in Illustrator for Desktop, hope this feature would be applied to future updates for the iPad version. Thank you very much.

Create seemless interoperability between .ai and .aic
Currently .ai files opened on the ipad have their layer structure and object structure modified much like when you open files with older versions of a software. The objects are defined by bounding boxes and clipping masks.

Show current active layer
It would be great to always be aware of the layer you are working on. Dockable submenus could keep the layers in open view to be sure that is the layer pen strokes will be collected on the appropriate layer if you accidentally touch another part of the project

Allow images files to be exported at higher resolutions
Option to export using dpi instead of ppi
Older versions of Illustrator used to have the option to export using dpi instead of ppi, when working with printing presses we need this option to be able to get good quality output without having to make images large by having to use 1200ppi to get best quality
