Of course they design the app so this pretty much has to be a Creative Cloud app. Draw is essentially a vector-based scratchpad for jotting down quick ideas and then exporting them to a desktop application where you could do more work on them. Adobe Illustrator DrawĪdobe Illustrator Draw is another in Adobe’s line of extremely dumbed-down apps for iOS so they can say they actually develop for the platform.

They want a laughable $3.99 a week, $4.99 a month, or $29.99 a year for an app that is kind of a novelty at best. The app was severely hamstrung when it was changed into a subscription model to use the full features of the app. The result being a really clever little app that has virtually no barrier of entry for simple graphic design. But to be fair, it is a professional level design app that can do a hell of a lot more than Procreate.Īssembly was built on a neat idea: have a vector design app where the shapes were already pre-created and users just picked and manipulated an extensive list of objects to create their design. The app though, to be sure, can be complicated, and is certainly not as intuitive as something like Procreate. I think they’ve largely found many innovative was of solving these types of problems. A vector app like Designer can do A LOT, the program needs to not make you toggle down into endless menu windows to find what you are trying to do. Where the Affinity suite of software really shines is modern user interfaces designed for simplicity and ease of use. They are quickly becoming many artists and graphic designers alternative to the expensive Adobe Creative Cloud as they are pay-one-time applications and are very reasonably priced for apps that are so fully-featured and capable.Īffinity Designer is akin to Adobe Illustrator, it is a complex and quality vector-based application. The Affinity suite of apps from Serif are incredibly impressive and seem to get more so all the time. $19.99 | Developer Website | Official Tutorials
