I bought Affinity Photo. The keyboard shortcuts don't work unless "focus" is on the image, I think. So often, they don't, and you have to click on the image to make them work. This rather defeats the purpose of shortcuts.

Using the keyboard shortcut to select a tool, also changes which subtool is selected. This is infuriating, and a magnificently stupid UI design.

I really wanted to like Affinity Photo, and I certainly use it as a photo editor, but every time I do I just wish I'd paid for Photoshop instead. It's pretty bad.
