Our verdict
Affinity combines what used to be three paid apps — Photo, Designer and Publisher — into one program that is now free with a Canva account. It is a serious Photoshop and Illustrator alternative. The catch is that you must sign in to activate it, and the AI features need a paid Canva plan.
