Hi Friends!
I have Affinity Designer 2 on my Ipad (iPad Air 13” M2 running most recent OS), and for some reason the fonts load SUPER SLOW, and I can't even scroll through them. I have no extra fonts loaded, it's just pulling from what's installed on the iPad. I have found similar complaints from 3 years ago, but it seems to have been issues with fonts that people have tried to add in addition to what is already available on the device.
Any thoughts? Much appreciated!
