Finally, two years ago, I found Affinity Photo for Mac. It was a tireless search because there were many developers who were trying to make a Photoshop alternative for professional users, but there were lots of failures. When the tide began to turn, and Adobe changed their model for purchase to a subscription-based one, I made the decision to look for a Mac-based product that would operate in the same manner and would still provide me with the tools to create breathtaking images and designs. For many, many years, I honed my craft using Photoshop like so many graphic designers did. One of my primary uses of a computer is to edit photos and design graphics. The mobile devices are quickly catching up to and surpassing the power of many stationary workstations so it’s only fitting that the software is modified to work alongside them. Over the past decade, app developers have been innovating their methods to keep up with how people work with the mobile technologies and it’s really become the focus for most people.

When the iPhone was released in 2007 and then when the original iPad was released in 2010, our world’s drastically began the move from desktop to mobile workspaces. It’s a rare event when an app can completely change how you use a device.
