Adobe Launches New Photoshop App for iPhone
Adobe is marking 35 years of its industry-leading image and design application, Photoshop, by releasing a brand new mobile version that's been built specifically with phones in mind – and, perhaps best of all, it's free.The new app is available now for iPhone and Adobe has promised that an Android version is "coming soon". While users can choose to pay for certain "premium upgrades", the free version includes many of the app's most used features, like layering and masking that allow users to combine, composite and blend their images. Users can also remove, recolor and replace elements within their images using the Tap Select tool, or select the iconic Spot Healing Brush to "brush away distractions in seconds". Adobe has also confirmed its newly built Photoshop mobile app has "direct integration" with others from its suite of creative mobile apps – like Express and Lightroom – affording users a seamless workflow between them.Adobe's AI tools have been integrated into the new Photoshop app, too, with Adobe Firefly and its popular Generative Fill and Generative Expand features made available with the free version of the new app. Additionally, users can take advantage of the vast library of assets available through of Adobe Stock at no extra cost, opening up a world of creative possibilities on-the-go."We’re excited to bring the limitless creative possibilities of Photoshop to mobile," Adobe's Ashley Still said, adding that the new app is for "everyone from professional artists and designers to a whole new generation of creators trying Photoshop for the first time.
