  1. Grey system layout

    The grey system layout is much easier on the eyes than the old style white cs3 look.

  3. Circle slice/angle

    It would be very nice and useful that when you draw a circle you can slice or angle it, like in desktop app.

  4. Vectorize Now button to apply chosen options instead of live update

    I would like to recommend adding a "vectorize now" button and only have something vectorized when I press that button. Right now, vectorizing occurs every time I change an option, which is very time consuming. Thank you!!

  5. Align clipping groups to bounds of the mask, not clipped contents

    Once I make a clipping mask I would like to align the masks and not the objects that are masked. I can not do that now because the aligh function works for the whole masked image

  8. French Curve tools. I used it with the older version of Adobe Draw for iPad when Apple Pencil was released. I need it put back.

    French Curve tools. I used it with the older version of Adobe Draw for iPad when Apple Pencil was released. I need it put back. As a clothing designer I’m writing a design pattern drafting book. I started the project years ago using the French Curve tools that were available in the Adobe Draw app that is no longer available. I need those tools to complete my book project. Drawing pattern drafts require those tools. Please put the French Curve tools back into the tools area for the iPad Adobe Illustrator app to be used with Apple Pencil. I can’t…

  10. Could snapping work on everything? Anchor points, intersections, center points?

    I can't get these grouped pivot point circles to align precisely enough to be usable. Rotate center can't snap to anything either.
    In the Desktop version, everything snaps precisely and its great for making these little articulating animal designs, which I then laser cut. I’d LOVE this functionality on my iPad, to design on-the-go as I hoped I’d be able to.

  11. Make the blob brush feel like the desktop version of the blob brush.

    The blob brush feels really sloppy on iPad. It should work exactly as it does on iPad. I experimented with all the different settings. Nothing made it feel or look anything like it does on desktop. This is the main thing keeping me from drawing on my iPad and instead still using clip studio. I like AI a lot more but the line work on my drawings are vital and the current form of the blob brush jus tisn’t it.

  12. Colors/gradient history and personal color swatches

    Last 10-20 colors and gradients selected or used should be available for easy access. Also easier way to create and have available personal color/gradient swatches.

  13. Use different units of measure when transforming object

    When creating an object, I often need to resize it according to specification. In an AI project, I use different units of measure. Say, for instance, that the project has a default unit setting of ‘centimeters’. If I need to create a 7.5x3 inch object, I’d like to be able to type the unit in the width and height fields on the Properties-Transform panel. For example, I want to type height = 7.5 in. The “in” would replace the “cm” which automatically appears in the field.

    This feature is has been available in Illustrator for Desktop app for quite a…

  14. Add a simple "In progress" indicator to the editing window.

    Can you add a simple "In progress" indicator to the editing window?

    A simple blinking object or something to show Illustrator-iPad is busy performing the last Instruction? I do realize doing running Illustrator on an iPad is quite a challenge to resource management, and every bit of processing power has to be managed well.

    When working with complex objects, and Illustrator stops responding to instructions because the last instruction was very a big one, I sometimes wonder if Illustrator is just busy, or has frozen up. To find out I tried taping some other instruction … bad idea.

    Illustrator usually…

  15. Command bar in app

    It would be great to have an IN APP COMMAND BAR to;

    access each menus and options from NAV BAR in all ADOBE TOOLS especially PHOTOSHOP, ILLUSTRATOR, IN DESIGN..

    With a simple key combination; a COMMAND BAR appears to reach quicky to menu item with text writing. Eg: COMMAND+SHIFT+P

    By adding this option to all CREATIVE CLOUD APPS, people no need to modify SHORTCUTS or no need to EXPLORE NEW SHORTCUTS.

    It's the new way of reaching all options to NAV MENU CONTENTS from ONE, SIMPLE COMMAND BAR. CURRENT ACTIONS or User created ACTIONS Names will be listed.

    Thank you…

  17. zoom out with 2 fingers optional please

    understandable that some users like the zoom out gesture with 2 fingers

    for all other users - perhaps many - who find it very frustrating and unnecessary, can we please have this gesture as an option?

    on average working 3h with iPad illustrator, even though I very much carefully avoid this gesture, at least 10-20 times in 3h, by total mistake I end up undoing the accidental zoom out, meaning having to zoom in and zoom in and zoom in then pan and pan and pan until I am again where I was before the accidental zoom out

  18. Enable import of other Illustrator iPad files.

    Import/place does not allow access to existing Illustrator (ipad) files. Argh.

  19. Make CC library (sub)folders and folder names visible

    I work with various projects that each has separate collections, so I have my color swatches sorted accordingly into each collection folder in my CC Libraries for each project - which is great when I switch from Illustrator to Photoshop and other desktop programs. But on iPad version of Illustrator all swatches are in one huge messy mix of swatches without any kind of (sub)folders visible - I can´t believe that this basic functionality is still missing. Hope it will be improved very soon!

  20. Cropping Layers

    I know that cropping images is not yet a feature either. However, I have been having a horrible time trying to crop a layer so that I can continue designs throughout.
    The only option right now is Transform, which makes the design look very novice.
