Amadine review

Amadine is a lighter vector editor from BeLight Software that suits Mac users who want to pay once and own the app. The store page lists a single user lifetime license for $29.99 and a five-seat family license for $49.99, while the iPad and iPhone versions use in-app purchases starting at $2.99 a month. The toolset covers more than 30 tools, including a pen, a Draw tool that combines pencil and brush, a Width tool for variable strokes and a Fusion tool for merging shapes. Image Trace turns bitmaps into color or black vector art, and flowing text runs across columns for flyers and brochures. Amadine imports SVG, PDF and AI files, exports SVG and PDF, and connects to Pexels, Pixabay and Unsplash for stock images. It is less complete than Affinity or Illustrator for print production, and it runs only on Apple devices, with Mac support starting at macOS 11.
