I’m a big fan of Affinity Photo and Illustrator. I switched when Adobe went to the subscription model. It’s very similar, and they have full tutorials on Vimeo for anything that works differently. It’s definitely worth the $20.
That looks great. It's mostly a Photoshop replacement right? I'm also looking for something to replace Lightroom, with the same amount of functions on desktop as on iPad. Any recommendations?
I think Affinity Photo is their lightroom replacement: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/photo/
Edit: I don’t think there’s a mobile version
With mobile I also meant iPad so they're good on that. To me "Photo" has a lot of Photoshop abilities (drawing, pencils, etc.) while it lacks, or seems to lack, some Lightroom functions (categorizing, overview of photos, ratings, etc.). But maybe I haven't looked at it good enough. It's certainly a good option to replace photoshop for me, because I don't use most functions of photoshop.
It works great on iPad, but it doesn’t store and organize.
