  1. double tap the apple pencil to go back one step

    For example, if you have made a mistake in what you are doing. That will be ideal if it can also be done with the pencil. (instead of tapping the screen with two fingers to go back one step.)

  2. Lock unlock objects

    There is no unlock objects, button / touch / gesture. there is only lock, and I thought the same would be used for unlocking the objects but it doesn’t work that way. Kindly update

  3. Importing images/files from Google Drive

    Not sure if it’s been suggested already or if it’s even possible but importing images/files directly from Google Drive would be quite convenient.

  6. Deal with markup directly

    Add a feature which enables the user to directly input SVG markup into the application, instead of having to import an SVG file all the time. Will save a lot of time for those who make SVGs by hand like me.
    Also, I would like it if I can just switch from graphical editing to markup editing seamlessly within the app. It would help with developing SVGs a lot.

  7. Filter Fonts by Classification

    Be able to filter fonts like on desktop so we don't have to scroll through long list of fonts we have saved.

  8. Make it possible to delete layers

    Make it possible to delete layers via sliding and clicking on a trashcan. And just like in the desktop version ask ‘are you sure’.

  10. Add a quick show/hide button to reveal tool tip labels

    Unlike desktop/Wacom styluses, the apple pencil has no hover state which makes it hard to know what tool does what. Would be very useful to have a quick show/hide button to quickly see hovering tool tips for each tool option in lieu of having a hover capability. Example UI attached.

  12. Long press delay to delete point is too short

    When using the direct selection or pen tool to move points the point is deleted too soon if the apple pencil is used to select it. Long press is supposed to delete the point but this happens if you hold the pencil on the point for a very short time. Please add a longer delay or even better allow the user to set the delay in preferences.

  13. Align dashes to corners and fit length

    On desktop, there is an option to adjust the dash/gap corners so that it fits the stroke/shape. There is no option for this on the iPad, and I would really like to see this asap so I can make dotted boxes.

  14. Locate and find selected paths in layers panel

    When the artwork becomes more complex, it’s almost impossible to locate selected object in layers panel, except doing it manually. You should mark the layer, group, clip group, that contains the selected object. Just like you did with a little square on the right side of the layers panel on desktop version.
    Keep on with such a great work!

  15. Share link for only selected artboards

    Currently when you share a link for review, it creates a link with all your artboards. So instead, I would like to select the artboards I would like share on the link.

  16. レイヤー情報を維持したまま、コピー、ペーストできるようにしてください。

    複数のレイヤーのオブジェクトを選択してコピー&ペーストすると、複製後は、選択した最前面のレイヤーに全てまとまってしまいます。
    どうやら「コピー元のレイヤーにペースト」という概念がないようです。
    illustratorはオブジェクトの前後関係が重要で、多くのレイヤーを適宜切り替えながら作業することが常なので困っています。
    デスクトップ版のように、「コピー元のレイヤーにペースト」はもちろんのこと、適宜切り替えできるようにしてほしいです。

  17. Find locked layers

    When I select a layer on the artwork it says locked. I would like to see an indicator in the layers panel of where the object is located, so I can unlock it. It is very hard to find white locked objects.

  20. Erase up to intersection (Paths)

    Illustrator on Ipad and the normal one really needs a tool to erase to intersection, like for example Clip studio has. It has a few workarounds, but this should just be a feature, not something to work around.

    Erase up to intersection should be a simple tool/or a feature you can activate on the normal eraser, so you can just touch the lines you want to cut and they will be erased up to the closest path it connects too.
