Illustrator Draw also depends on non-discoverable gestures, which are known to require more cognitive energy to memorize versus a more-obvious user interface design which requires less cognitive energy. Why should I invest in learning iPad apps when their capabilities don’t come close to desktop apps? It’s completely different and most of the features I rely on are completely absent. Why do we need two again? I’ve been using Illustrator for decades, and the iPad versions are nothing like what I’m used to. Illustrator Draw on iPad is nothing like Illustrator on Windows & macOS and neither is the other Illustrator app called Illustrator for iPad. Goofy foreign UI designs relative to what I’m used to

And it’s the same interface as on my desktop workstations!ĥ. With the Wacom MobileStudio Pro that I usually bring on remote shoots, I can open Adobe Bridge, point it to the SD card slot, and start culling & editing right away. The most annoying one is that you have to “import” the entire library before you can start doing anything. Adobe Lightroom on the iPad is actually pretty good, except it still has limitations. Maybe my client wants to post articles during a conference right after a session ends, or maybe we want to do some culling right away. Often I might be on location and need to do some photo editing right there during the shoot. Websites and printed products rely on photography. I may need to set up still life photos of food products in a shooting tent, or any kind of package products, or I may photograph events, or building interiors/exteriors for signage mockups, or people interacting with each other, or people headshots, or emergency response set-ups for the American Red Cross during the aftermath of 9/11. As a graphic designer, I do a lot of photography too.
