Doing live demonstrations of developmental AI features is always a risk, and the hiccups can be pretty funny. The host who showcased how Adobe Express’s new AI assistant can edit designs during today’s Max keynote was certainly amused (and surprised) that it turned a photograph into a cartoon — a change she hadn’t asked for.
YouTubers will be soon be able to make use of Adobe Premiere editing tools through a new hub, Create for YouTube shorts. It’s launching soon, both inside the new Premiere mobile app and built directly into YouTube itself.
Expect “exclusive effects, transitions, templates and more.”
The free iOS app is now available to download worldwide today, following its announcement earlier this month, bringing Premiere Pro editing features to mobile devices. An Android version is also in development, but Adobe hasn’t said when it will arrive.
But it’s not for the faint of heart.
After launching Photoshop for iPhone in February, a beta Android app is now available to download via Google Play. Much like its iOS counterpart, Photoshop for Android includes many features from the desktop version, including layers, masks, brushes, and Firefly generative AI tools, but with a UI optimized for mobile devices.
Adobe says all features are free to use while the app is in beta, and that more are “coming soon.”
Fresco, the creative software giant’s painting and drawing app, will now allow users to embed Content Credentials into their work that specifically identify it as “created without generative AI.” Content Credentials can already track if images have been manipulated using AI tools but clearly marking them as AI free is a new one, especially for a company that’s so heartily embraced the technology across its other apps.
Bluesky accounts for Adobe and Photoshop were dogpiled by the creative community shortly after making their first posts on the platform, attracting hundreds of negative comments before the posts were removed. The creative software giant’s image problem is no easy fix, having long been lambasted by its own users over subscription pricing models, AI adoption, and market domination.

A universal open-source format exists, but only a handful of cameras use it.
The co-editing feature is currently in testing, and will allow multiple Photoshop users to work on the same canvas in real time while monitoring what’s being changed — similar to a Google Docs file.
It’s a notable upgrade to Photoshop’s current collaboration capabilities. A similar feature is already available for Adobe Express, and competing design apps like Canva and Figma.
