Linearity Curve Reviews
Pros
Nevertheless, it is an excellent alternative for getting freehand illustrations in vector format very quickly and with beautiful results.
This tool is inexpensive and is competing with the best classic illustration tools. I like this more than procreate and others as I can use this on mac.
The UI and ease of use is really amazing. It blends in to the Apple design language, and is very easy to just pick up and use.
Cons
It has been a bit difficult to be as fast with it as I am with Illustrator on my PC but this is because I have years of work on Illustrator and I am very used to it.
The app is limited to illustrations. I would like something for photo and image manipulation too.
The dark mode is not truly black which is kind of a bummer.

Great tool for illustration
Sahil S.
"An amazing alternative to Illustrator"
Overall: It has been a bit difficult to be as fast with it as I am with Illustrator on my PC but this is because I have years of work on Illustrator and I am very used to it. Nevertheless, it is an excellent alternative for getting freehand illustrations in vector format very quickly and with beautiful results. I have used it especially for illustration and it has come in handy for various projects that just don't work with a mouse. I really like it and the cost is incomparable.
Pros: It is a very good software that can be used on my tablet allowing me to draw directly on the screen without much hassle. The tools are somewhat basic but as a professional illustrator, I have found that it really does all the basic work I need without having to switch to the alternative. The learning curve is difficult if you come from an Adobe background because I am used to call all my commands via keyboard (which I also did when using a graphic tablet) but eventually you get use to it and the work gets faster. It is pretty intuitive and there is no need to learn to use the program from scratch as everything in it feels familiar.
Cons: The image tracing is not very good but I assume this will be improved soon. I would love to get a sister version for the PC which I assume will be developed eventually.
"Vectornator Pro is a great tool for the non-technical user"
Overall: My overall experience with Vectornator Pro is a positive one. I needed a vector graphics program for designing graphic images for crochet charts. I was able to convert fonts to vector graphics easily and then use this graphics for my charts.
Pros: I found that Vectornator Pro has an easy learning curve if you a familiar with other graphic editing software. It was easy to learn and use for someone with no experience with a vector program.
Cons: Cannot think of any cons about the product.
"A polished vector design app for everyone"
Pros: Vectornator has a beautiful, easy to navigate interface, and it isn't difficult to design with it. It is much nicer and better performing that Gravit Designer and is free, unlike Sketch and Illustrator. There are even full apps for iOS/iPadOS with the same functionality as on desktop.
Cons: I have experienced calculation issues, the snapping is iffy, and the guides can't be precisely positioned. The iOS/iPadOS interface has a learning curve as well; could be more intuitive.
"Great tool for illustration "
Pros: This tool is inexpensive and is competing with the best classic illustration tools. I like this more than procreate and others as I can use this on mac.
Cons: The app is limited to illustrations. I would like something for photo and image manipulation too.
"Great Vector Art app"
Overall: It's a great app with a clean UI and a great set of tools for making vectors
Pros: It's easy to use and it's feature set makes creating vector art really easy
Cons: It's not available on windows. It's only available on the Apple ecosystem
