Product Name | Purchase Store | Platform | Version | NOTE: I will update/edit this first post as new releases are added. Version numbers are displayed on the About dialog (or preferences in iPad builds) The thread is now locked to if you "follow" it you will know then we release a new version on any platform. There's even a way to stitch multiple documents into a single book, although that's only available in desktop versions for now.This post is designed to be an aid to knowing if you are using the latest version of Affinity Version 2 applications on your platform. You can also create automatically repeating layouts and use a style picker. Affinity Publisher 2 now helps you add academia-friendly footnotes, endnotes and sidenotes. Affinity Designer 2, meanwhile, adds non-destructive vector warping, a "knife" cutting tool, a shape builder and even tools for measuring lengths and areas. Affinity Photo 2 now includes non-destructive RAW development, saved layer states, compound masks (that is, joining multiple masks together), live warping and live masks for elements like hue and luminosity ranges.

Regardless of platform, you should see some meaningful upgrades. You now have all of the Affinity bundle on your tablet, and won't have to split your attention between your computer and iPad when it's time to design a page layout. The developer has released Affinity Version 2 apps that not only include major new features (more on those shortly), but the first edition of Publisher for the iPad. Serif is determined to make its Affinity suite a more practical alternative for creatives who'd rather not pay for an Adobe subscription - or use a conventional PC, for that matter.
