All the rendering, adjustments and filter effects are fully hardware-accelerated using Apple’s Metal graphics rendering processes for high performance. The company says it’s been built from the same back-end as the desktop version but every tool, panel and control has been ‘completely re-imagined’ for the iPad. Can Serif really reproduce a full-size desktop application within the screen size, interface and hardware limitations of a tablet? It doesn’t just think so, it’s gone ahead and done it.Īccording to Serif, Affinity Photo for iPad has been fully optimised for the iPad hardware and interface. That’s a bold ambition no other publisher has attempted. Affinity Photo for iPad is not a simplified, cut-down accessory app – it’s a full-blown version of the desktop Affinity Photo application with every feature intact and optimised for the iPad hardware and touch interface. It’s not the first time a software publisher has produced a mobile version of a desktop application – take Photoshop Express and Lightroom Mobile, for example – but this time it’s different.
