Artists, illustrators and designers: have you tried the new Photoshop for iPad Pro yet, and is it worth it?

As a painter, I’m a Procreate devotee, but do use PSD and Creative Suite on desktop for design and conceptual work too. So, in theory, it sounds like a streamlined dream to have ALL these tools in one place - on my beloved tablet. However I’ve heard a lot of the features are missing. Have you tried it out? Whether you’re a seasoned pro or an enthusiastic rookie I’d LOVE to hear your take!

  • Thanks for the replies guys! Wow, it really does sound like a case of keeping our fingers crossed for an exciting update which incorporates more features and tools. I've heard some pretty great things about Affinity too, so perhaps I should give that a dabble until then!
  • It's a photoshop lite. When the 2nd Gen iPad Pro came out I bought one and tried going purely touch for graphics and audio work. It was a half baked and truly frustraing experience. Affinity are years ahead of Adobe on the tablet design front, Photoshop and the other Adobe apps that are available for iPad are for now, not very useful.
  • it comes along with the cc subscription. its nice to have, anywork you do on your ipad you can open up straight on your desktop. although its still very basic and lacks alot of usefull features comapred with the desktop version. hopefully there will be some great updates in the future :)
