How well does the app handle raw photos? What formats (and file size) can the app export to?
Just bought a Macbook pro with touchbar and then watched another benchmark video of it against the new iPad Pro, now I am slightly depressed 🙁
I got it a few days ago and I don’t understand the mask part of it
$30.99 AUD, ummmm maybe later
Outstanding introductory video, thank you!

This app is unbelievably awesome on an iPad. It shows what can be done these days. Makes me wonder what the hell Adobe is doing.
I don’t know what you find robust, but this app isn’t that. It crashes a lot. A whoooooooole lot. It still has a looooooooooooooong list of bugs. But the developer is working hard to get them fixed. Check their forum. Nevertheless it’s a great app. Now I finally can use my iPad Pro 12.9 for serious on the go photo editing. It is waaaaaaay better then all the shitty Adobe apps put together. I managed to stitch 7 150 megabyte TIFF photos together in one big 750 megabyte panorama with Affinity Photo. It handles large files impressively well. It has great potential, but isn’t there yet. But it is the best we have on the iPad, by far! Very impressive!
what about keyboard shortcuts?
Great video thanks. Are you aware of a video editing app that is just as robust?
just got this app
bye bye PS
Helooow Affi
Great video. Thanks for showing how powerful the iPad can be and how powerful Affinity is on the iPad.
Purchased the app so I could do digital scrapbooking on my iPad and I’m having a terrible time figuring how to clip layers to masks? Any help would be appreciated.
Agreed, Affinity Photo is awesome. However, it seems the Colour Picker – in conjunction with the Paint tool – doesn’t sample colours, anyone else had this issue?
It‘s an awesome app. I highly recommend it to every iPad user. It‘s worth it 100%.
I’m going go get affinity photo tonight
This looks awesome. Definitely going to get it.
Bought this app yesterday but finding it soooo annoying to use. I’m coming from Lightroom. It’s just too much learning curve. Photoshop express with photoshop fix is so much easier and straightforward
its too expensive…
I like it a lot. My goal would be to use the mobile version as a helper App (with the Pencil) of the desktop App and use the desktop version as an external editor in Lightroom. But the Affinity Photo cloud sync could be better. Sadly I can’t test that anymore as the iOS 11 Beta 2 Save to Files crashes all the time.
I love Affinity Photo on my Desktop (purchased both Windows and Mac versions), iPad version is just as good.
Great App and easy to use!
While this is more of a Photoshop type of program, I am wondering if the desktop version of Affinity Photo will sync with the iOS app, similar to LR Mobile (CC)?
This looks awesome. I wish there was a really good advanced video editing app for iPad too
Why it’s expensive

This is an amazing app, it does still have a few bugs and it does crash a fair bit on me, im using an ipad pro 2nd gen 12.9. But they are still working on it and its looking very promising, and the cost is very cheap compared to anything that would come close. Big thumbs up from me.
Thanks so much for mentioning the tutorials! They don’t often get a look in 😉
When the next update is released the app should start checking for a new tutorial list online, so when new videos are added on YouTube/Vimeo the in-app versions will also go live at the same time (rather than having to wait for a new update on the App Store). There’s currently 22 and I’m hoping to add more in the next few weeks. Hope people are finding them useful, any comments or suggestions are always welcome.
I’ve been using Affinity Photo and Designer for Mac for at least a year. I love them both. My only gripe is the eye dropper behavior.
Affinity Photo and iPad Pro is a beast.
The first professional image editing software on an iPad. This adds Pro to an iPad. Thanks for this great review @9to5Mac
Crazy shit. I have the windows applications but now i own a mac so i must repurchase them all :-/
Could you make a video on Luma fusion?
great video. I was eyeing this app but I need to upgrade to iPad Pro first.
Great app, only importing images to the iPad takes a long time (cf cards) can anyone recommend me a better workflow? I now need to first upload them to google photos through my MacBook using a cf card reader.
Cool
Have both affinity for Mac and my iPad. Actually love using the iPad version most. Fantastic value app.
Not for Android? Wtf?
Just got the app. Need to learn! 1st time using photoshop like app
Yes indeed Affinity Photo App is simply the best on the market but then it’s British!
This App is absolutely worth its money. I am using Photoshop for years and this app is very similar to Photoshop with its functionalities. Small learning curve! Absolutely fantastic. I hope, they’re doing the same with their illustrator program, creating an app version for the iPad.
This app is amazing! Coming from a musical background I thought I would be lost completely but I’m having a great time discovering each feature. There is a big instal base with YouTube videos to help out as well. Definitely show support to this app/company so they continue to develop this as well as other software.
How much is it for on appstore?
Can you sketch on here like you can for adobe photoshop
Can you do a 3D pop out effect on the iPad?
This app is worth every penny. It’s on sale and if you plan on buying, make sure your iPad is supported
Been using this app since the Beta of Affinity Photo for Mac, the smoothness and the performance are really blow my mind, can’t go back to other software once I start using it! For real! Hope Affinity Designer for iPad and Affinity Publisher will out soon!
Do you know if this app can make Instagram preview videos? If you don’t know what that is then you can just type in Instagram preview videos into YouTube. Thanks!
