Photoshop for iPadĪffinity Designer is a powerful app for creating a range of art (Image credit: Future) But you can seamlessly transfer your work to and from your desktop app to your iPad app, which is a big positive. Unfortunately, the app is only available on a subscription model and it's not compatible below iOS 14. We've found that when you combine the Illustrator app with the new iPad Pro (M1, 2021) and the Apple Pencil 2, then you get a sleek, controlled and enhanced digital art experience (make sure you check out the iPad Pro deals and the Apple Pencil deals if you haven't got the devices already). And if you're still not convinced, then why not read more about it over on our Illustrator for iPad review? The app takes the best features from the desktop app and pops it into this handy portable version of the app.

While the app is free, it does require some in-app purchases, but with features like radial, grid and mirror repeat, its worth the money.
