Linearity Curve review

Linearity Curve, the app formerly sold as Vectornator, is a native vector editor for Mac, iPad and iPhone that pairs with Linearity Move for keyframe animation. The drawing tools cover the essentials with some extras: pressure-sensitive vector brushes, mesh-style gradients, a shape builder, a corner radius tool and non-destructive effects such as shadows and blurs. Auto Trace turns photos, logos or sketches into editable paths, and Curve can open PDFs as native files so you can edit text and layout from a client deliverable. For print, it supports CMYK and exports PDF, SVG and EPS, and it imports and exports files from Figma, Illustrator and Sketch. Pricing is the main draw: the Pro plan is $8 per month billed annually or $10 monthly, tax included, and adds unlimited use of Curve and Move plus 600 AI credits a month. The free plan works for trying it but limits usage and export options, and there is no Windows version.
