Question

Illustrator for iPad RAM requirements

Hello,

 

Please can you clarify a query regarding Illustrator for iPad RAM requirements.

 

https://helpx.adobe.com/nz/illustrator/system-requirements-ios.html

 

The link above indicates Illustrator for iPad needs 4GB RAM to run.

 

The iPad 6th generation has 2GB RAM

I'd have assumed this isn't sufficient from the info at the link above, but the iPad 6th gen is still listed as compatible.

 

The iPad 7th generation has 3GB RAM

I'd have assumed this isn't sufficient from the info at the link above, but the iPad 7th gen is still listed as compatible.

 

Is the '4GB RAM' stated at the link above incorrect and in fact Illustrator for iPad just needs 2GB RAM minimum to run? I assume this could be the case if it's compatible with the iPad 6th Generation.

 

I'm considering buying an iPad 8th Generation which has 3GB RAM

https://www.apple.com/uk/ipad-10.2/

 

Can Illustrator for iPad run well with just 3GB RAM ?

Or does it need 4GB RAM as the text says in the link.

 

(I realise more RAM is better etc and I realise storage is not the same is RAM etc etc)

 

Thanks very much for your time and assistance.

 

Kind regards,

 

John
