Limited Time: Get the Entire Affinity V2 Suite for iPad for Free

In a surprise move that’s set to delight creative professionals everywhere, Serif has launched an unprecedented limited-time promotion: its entire award-winning Affinity V2 creative suite for iPad, including Affinity Photo 2, Affinity Designer 2, and Affinity Publisher 2, is now available to claim for free, with a perpetual license.

A Surprise Giveaway Ahead of a Major Announcement?

The Affinity suite has long been celebrated as a formidable alternative to Adobe's ecosystem, praised for its powerful feature set and a one-time purchase model. The journey began with Affinity Photo in 2015, which quickly became a go-to for photographers, and was later completed by Affinity Designer and Publisher in 2019, forming a comprehensive toolkit for designers and artists.

This giveaway comes at an interesting time, with rumors circulating about a potential major product announcement from Affinity around October 30th of this year, widely speculated to be the launch of Version 3. By making the entire V2 iPad suite free, Serif is not only generating immense goodwill but is also possibly clearing the decks for a new chapter in the Affinity story.

How to Claim Your Free Affinity iPad Apps Permanently

The process to claim these powerful creative tools is straightforward. Follow these simple steps to add them to your account forever.

  1. Download & Sign In: Download any of the Affinity V2 apps from the iPad App Store (e.g., Affinity Photo 2). Open the app and sign in to your Affinity account. If you don't have one, you can register for free in minutes.
  2. Start the Free Trial: Once logged in, you will be prompted to activate the software. Tap to begin the "7-Day Free Trial." This is a necessary step to unlock the permanent offer, so don't hesitate.
  3. Go to Your Account & Claim: After starting the trial, tap on your account icon within the app. In your account panel, you will see a clear "Claim" button.
  4. Complete the $0 Purchase: Tap "Claim," and a standard in-app purchase window will appear showing a one-time price of $0.00. Confirm this "purchase" to permanently bind the license to your account.

Important: You must repeat this process for each of the three apps — Affinity Photo 2, Affinity Designer 2 and Affinity Publisher 2 to claim the entire suite.
