Editors' Notes

There’s no task too big—or too small—for this robust photo editor. If you want to add some cool filters, you can. If you want to adjust the exposure, add some saturation, and make it ’gram-worthy, you can do that too. And if you’d rather draw than edit? You’re in luck. Affinity Photo packs support for Apple Pencil and an incredible array of basic and advanced illustration tools. Create unlimited layers, choose from an unsurprisingly enormous selection of brushes, and even create your own brushes—complete with jitter, spacing, and flow. (Sounds like dancing, right?)

Really really good!

There’s not much to say except that this is as good as any other app out there including the “industry standards.” And there’s no subscription. Why everyone isn’t using it is a mystery.

Excellent

I’m no expert but really enjoying this program. Every day I learn something new and with lots of tutorials within Serif and YouTube sky’s the limit. It’s well priced and runs well on a medium priced laptop with no issues.
