The layout of the interface is a standard, well-known type that won’t attract nor put off many. Of course, Affinity Photo for Windows has its own identity – the distinct purple color gives a fresh vibe to it, although I would have liked to see more of it. This makes a potential transition much easier. I say it’s a welcome look as it made me feel comfortable and familiar with the interface. Some may say it looks way too similar, insinuating a straight-up rip-off. The first thing I noticed was how similar Affinity Photo for Windows looks to Photoshop. Although the aim is directed primarily at the professional market, there is plenty for non-professionals to love about Affinity Photo. Speaking of Photoshop, it is obvious that the market leader is going to be Affinity Photo for Windows’ main competitor as this is a program tailored for professionals. However, I am a sporadic, amateur Photoshop user so I will provide the merit based on program’s existing capabilities, sometimes comparing it to Photoshop’s features. Since I am not a Mac user, I am unable to verify that claim. That means perfect file compatibility between the two platforms, as well as the performance, tools, and accuracy all being the same as Mac users have already gotten accustomed to. The folks from Serif claim this version is identical to the Mac version, matching it feature-for-feature. Today, almost one year and a half later, the program is fully cross-platform with Affinity Photo for Windows available for beta testing. After five years of development, it got introduced in July 2015 with great success and received the highly coveted Apple Design Award at WWDC. Affinity Photo for Windows is a professional image editing software from Serif.
