    I am new to Inkscape. I downloaded i Inkscape beta 1.0, because that is what is available for Mac OS X. I am wondering if there is an iPad OS/iOS  version being developed? I like to be able to work on it on my iPad too.

    No, there is no such version.

    Ok, thanks! Well, maybe the developers could work on this. I would pay $10.00 or less.😁

    It would probably cost a few million dollars. Which is somewhat higher than $10.

    I'm also not sure Apple would make it possible since GPL projects are banned on Apple iOS (AFAIK). They are politically opposed to Free Software projects like Inkscape.

    Millions? I meant an app on the AppStore. For example,  Procreate costs $9.99, and there is no subscription fee either. Couldn’t Inkscape be written in Swift using Xcode? I don’t know much about this subject, that is why I was asking.

    First it needs developers who rewrite Inkscape... Paying them would be costly.

    Ok, I will just learn affinity designer for iPad, and learn Inkscape for Mac  OS X.

    Have a look at OffiInk on the ITunes store it claims to use the Inkscape app as a base and is therefore open source and free.
    I don't use it as I think my Ipad mini is far too old.

    (It's also super slow, and full of advertising. The app itself is not open source, but it uses Inkscape running on a server. The company seems quite shady to me, given how they react on the browser extension stores.)
