If you’re a designer interested in providing feedback to Adobe through early access to the app, an exclusive private beta has begun. Based on the timeline established by Photoshop on iPad, it’s likely the app won’t ship until late next year, perhaps at Adobe MAX 2020. You’ll be able to get your hands and Apple Pencils on Illustrator on iPad sometime in 2020. Adobe hasn’t said if all of these features will be shipping at launch. Just last week, the Creative Cloud app was updated to take advantage of iOS 13’s new font management system. Other features previewed in development include clipping masks, pattern and radial repeat tools, the new point gradient tool first introduced on the desktop last year at Adobe MAX, and symmetry illustration.Īdobe is also building robust typography support in the app, with full integration with Adobe Fonts. Adobe is also building features exclusive to the iPad version of Illustrator, like the ability to take a photo of a hand-drawn sketch and instantly turn it into vector shapes. Files opened on the iPad won’t suffer a loss in quality or precision. That means documents will be shared between desktop and mobile versions of Illustrator using Creative Cloud.

Like Photoshop on iPad, Adobe says it is reimagining Illustrator from the ground up for a touch-first experience.
The app is still in early stages of development, with an initial release targeted for sometime in 2020. Now, Adobe’s next iPad app with desktop-class ambitions is Illustrator, previewed today at Adobe MAX 2019.
