Adobe launches free Photoshop for iPhone, Android version coming soon

While Adobe is giving away the app for free, you might have to pay for some advanced features.

Adobe Photoshop, one of the most popular image editing tools of all time, just got a mobile app. Currently available on iPhones, Photoshop for mobile brings several design, editing and generative AI powered features available on the desktop version of the app.

Photoshop Express has been available on Android and iOS devices for well over a decade, but Adobe says the new app was designed from the ground up and is more powerful. While the two apps share some similarities like the ability to resize, mask, adjust contrast, remove objects and blemishes to name a few, the new Photoshop app offers a more desktop-like experience.

The new free app also offers several Photoshop editing features like Spot Healing Brush, Tap Select, layers, selections, masks and compositing and blending images. You also get access to Adobe Stock assets and integration with Creative Cloud apps like Adobe Express, Lightroom and the AI powered Generative Fill and Generative Expand AI tools.

However, tools like Object Select, Content Aware Fill, Clone Stamp, Remove Tool and Magic Wand are locked behind a paywall for which you will have to shell out Rs 799 per month. The subscription also offers access to features like light/dark adjustment options, advanced blend modes, color effects, styles, and integration with Photoshop for web.

Adobe also says that users who have already subscribed to a paid Photoshop plan will be able to access all the premium features on mobile for free. And for those wondering, Adobe has confirmed that Photoshop will be coming to Android later this year.
