Where’s the full version?
Hi,
purchased the full version of Pattern Artist a few years ago and have over 5k designs in my library that I had amassed over the years. I’m really concerned because it appears the app is no longer available and when I repair my iPad which the app was on, it might have disappeared.
I would really be devastated if I lost all that work which I had slowly been recreating in Affinity Designer vector form since they were too small and low in resolution when exported. Please can you let me know how to retrieve my hard work? I don’t mind paying for the service or will the app still be available on my iPad when it gets repaired?
It’s a great shame you guys took it off, it was an amazing app. It’s odd because the free version though still available, is restricted and asking one to upgrade! I would really appreciate a response because I have contacted you before and received no response. The thought of losing over 5 years worth of work (these are complex derivatives I’d created from the templates, where the original template couldn’t be identified). I’m so proud of them because my designs evolved over the years from simple to complex designs. I am Surface Pattern Designer and I implore you please, not to ignore my email. Thank you
King regards

PLEASE HELP
Someone please tell me how to delete a pattern. 🥺
Response from developer
From the library screen, tap and hold on the pattern to select, optionally drag to select multiple patterns, and then tap again to display a menu of actions (including “Delete”).
A hidden gem
Love this app! As a surface pattern designer it gives you a fast way to be creative and create designs. I would love a way to create my own color palettes or export as vector to other design software. However even as a png or jpg files it still works great. The line work options and many geometric combinations are inspirational.

Full Potential Not Exploited!
I absolutely love this app but it appears the developer Kevin Brain has abandoned it as he doesn't seem to respond to any of the comments, suggestions or reviews! I have emailed support a few times and never got a response. It's great when developers engage with the public as they get more ideas for improvements. Also when users purchase the app and encounter problems, it's helpful when the support team respond.
Nonetheless, this app is really so unique and the options are endless and I have created over three thousand designs so far as a hobby but now have been encouraged to sell them on POD platforms but only just discovered that the image resolution is only 72ppi way sort of the standard 300ppi required. When the designs are used on POD platforms or enlarged, the quality is quite poor and it is super pixelated!
I don't think there is any support available as no one responded to my queries! The questions below aren't addressed in the help section.
1. How to export high resolution images of at least 300 ppl resolution outcome or is it always going to be stuck at 72ppi?
2. What do the sizes within the design eg (128 x 128) and when exporting (1:1 at 1920 x 1920) represent? pixels? inches?, ppi? or is it just regular zoom? etc
It would be amazing if the developer incorporated the following:
1. Vector based templates or the ability to export the images at a resolution of at least 300
2. The ability to edit the designs beyond the original or boundaries of the original templates
3. The option of exporting PNG with a transparent background
4. An eraser tool
Currently the largest export size for an untiled image depends on how much you zoom it before export (max is 3264 x 3264) however don’t know whether that increases the image size or number of pixels when designing. However, zooming the image to the max 3264 x 3264, distorts the design and outline/stroke size
While for the tiled patterns the largest image size that can be exported is 1:1 @ 2732 x 2732
If these features could be added, I wouldn't mind paying a lot more than the £1.99. If all the above features were incorporated or if it this app could just be made vector based and could be brought up to a professional standard, this app would be worth at least £50 and many professional pattern designers wouldn’t hesitate to pay that amount for it. Still a great app! To the developers, if you’re not interested in developing this app any further, can’t you sell it to Serif or Adobe? 🤓

Love this app
It can be used for creating patterns for weaving of various materials and for cross stitching. Can see color combinations on a pattern. It’s only limited by ones own imagination. Great app
