Use ipad as writing pad for mac

Sadly, the mode is essentially unusable for me. As soon as I open the app it immediately just opens and refreshes the screen over and over and cannot connect. Once I switched to the usb mode, there were no issues whatsoever. As soon as I draw it registers it seamlessly. Even when running numerous apps in the background I have experienced no lag. Keep in mind, I am using a pretty strong Mac and iPad so my experiences may not be universal.

This is a very good app but not a very good company. In their early stages they were hot to get customers. The Apple Pencil was new and not that good and was limited as to which iPads could use it. So, they encouraged the use of third-party styluses. They even had a very useful part of their website where they recommended specific styluses.

I took their advice and bought an Adonit that has worked very well. Well, that was then and this is now. Even my functioning Adonit. How could I have been so stupid? Oh, wait, they told me it was good. Nonetheless, bad dog Astro, bad dog. I don't know why but I'm starting to think this company want to push all of us to the subscription based app.

This app is all I wanted to be able to continue working on my designs from other areas via Wifi and it helped me a lot with Adobe apps to the point I think it is impossible to work without it. This app is really expensive and we decided to pay the amount so we can replace our old Wacom tablet or cintiq and keep working as a pro. You sold this app as a pro app and now you are saying this is a 'lite' app?? So we pay you monthly or yearly to use your 'Pro' app? What happened if I need to finish a job and I can't pay that month for any reason? So I'm just renting your service?

That's it? Listen you need to offer your app also with a one time payment for people like me that need to have that tool anytime and know that is there because I bought it. Go ahead. I prefer paying you one time for me to have a tool as good as it is but don't do evil moves like "if you want to rotate your drawing you need to have a subscription" because you are pushing people to buy a new Wacom Cintiq.

10 Apps to Turn Your iPad Into a Bad Ass Drawing Tablet

I got a couple of questions. First - who already using Astropad? Is is good? Does this work with Wacom tablet pen? I just checked App store. And I dont see free trial. I wanted to try it before buy. And second - iDisplay. Its not free too. Does this work good? Anyone use it? I have used Astropad, and I really like it.

It works super good with Illustrator. I am intrigued to try AirStylus. Sergey Kandakov Astropad does have a free trial the Mac app does. Definitely check it out before you buy, but I think you'll like it.

It depends a lot on the project. First I use my iPad as a sketchbook, I bring it to life drawing sessions, make mood boards on it, brainstorm and do preliminary sketches. Experimenting with apps can spark ideas, and the iOS apps are so inexpensive compared to desktop apps.

For vector art I use iDraw and for painting I use Procreate which allows you dpi output for up to A4 size. Next I export my artwork to my desktop computer where I assemble it. For patterns I'll use Illustrator to create the repeats with the parts I made on my iPad.

I might use Photoshop to add textures and other final touches, or Illustrator for its effects and precision. Icons and other artwork that need a kind of numeric precision and snapping to grid, is the only artwork that I create on my desktop these days. I might still do the sketches for them on my iPad. I teach and do public speaking around iPhoneography and painting on the iPad and I've written a few guides on apps for various art areas on my Marmalade Moon blog. If you'd like to take a look, you'll find the app guides under the tab for "guides and tutorials".

Kate England very cool. I really like Adobe's new drawing apps too but I can't for the life of me figure out how they can stamp the name "Illustrator" on a product that doesn't produce vector artwork. MilanFarkas Astropad have a recommendation for a pen that works on the iPad 2.

Some say it's not as accurate as true pressure sensitivity but if you visit the astropad home page you can find more info which might help you. Oh how Interesting to hear how you work, Josh Johnson! I have Fifty Three's Pencil too, but use it in Procreate since I need more brushes, colours and higher resolution than Paper offers. Paper's gimmicky undo function drives me nuts and makes it so slow to work for me, so although I made my first professional grade artwork with Paper - watercolours that I vectorised for a surface pattern for fabric - I was glad to find first Sketches, which lets you undo without doing a little dance on the screen.

Sketches has an iPhone companion and similar but in my opinion better brushes than Paper, and also allows for changing the size of brushes, and expanding the palette here's the link http: Yes, Adobe's mobile apps are a big disappointment and there are many other alternative apps from indie developers that are superior in functionality.

You also have to subscribe to the cloud to even be able to access your own work from your desktop. Although there is a Photoshop for iOS there are many other photo editors for iOS that perform much better. I think though, that the two Adobe apps that offer unique and interesting functions are Adobe Shape and Adobe Brush.

Autodesk's iOS apps are excellent, in my opinion the best iOS apps coming from one of the established software companies. The iOS system opened up possibilities for new, indie developers, who quite often truly "think differently" than the established software producers. This in itself I find inspiring! Oh, on the topic of styluses, rumour has it that there's going to be a new iPad Pro this autumn. It would possibly come with the first Apple made stylus and iPad artists are hoping this will solve the whole pressure sensitivity issue once and for all!

Here's a link for further reading: Kate England my bet is that Apple will be building in a high level of touch sensitivity with the next iPad. You see them experimenting with this tech already on the recent Watch and trackpad with Force Touch. I have a really hard time believing Apple will ever make a stylus though. Just my two cents!

It's going to be incredibly exciting to see the new iPad! I think Steve Jobs wanted the touch to be an experience that didn't require anything else. Possibly Tim Cook has a different view. We'll see Josh Johnson:
