Captain LagbeardPhotoshop for iPhone is Here – Because Who Doesn’t Want to Edit a Full PSD on a 6-Inch Screen?
Great news for iPhone users! Adobe has finally dropped Photoshop for iPhone, allowing you to turn your blurry brunch pics into magazine covers—on the go!
Meanwhile, Android users? Well, you’re on the waiting list for now.
Adobe promises that Photoshop will make its grand entrance on Android “later this year”, which in tech terms usually means “whenever we feel like it.”
But hey, at least you can sign up here for an alert when it finally drops.
So, What Can You Do with Photoshop on iPhone?
If you’ve ever dreamt of removing your ex from vacation photos while stuck in traffic, congratulations! That dream is now a reality. Photoshop for iPhone lets you:
✔ Blend, composite, and layer images (because why have one face when you can have five?)
✔ Select parts of an image with Tap Select (perfect for isolating just your pet in selfies)
✔ Erase objects with Spot Healing Brush (goodbye, photobombers!)
✔ Use AI-powered Generative Fill & Expand (need more sky in that sunset pic? Done!)
✔ Edit Lightroom photos directly in Photoshop (because one Adobe app wasn’t enough)
✔ Preserve image quality with full-res editing (take that, blurry meme makers!)
And the best part? It’s free to download! But before you get too excited, remember: basic features are free, but if you actually want to do anything serious, you’ll have to pay up.
The “Mobile & Web” Plan: Because Adobe Loves Your Wallet
For just $7.99 per month (or $69.99 per year if you prefer annual heartbreak), Adobe is offering a Mobile & Web plan. What do you get if you cough up the cash?
💰 Remove objects from photos with a simple brush stroke (say goodbye to photobombers and that one annoying tree branch)
💰 Clone Stamp & Content-Aware Fill (because sometimes, one palm tree just isn’t enough)
💰 Magic Wand tool for selecting objects with laser-like precision (yes, even that one hair strand)
💰 Advanced Blend Modes to control transparency & color effects (a fancy way to say “cool filters”)
💰 Access to 20,000+ fonts (because let’s be real, you’ll probably only use two)
💰 Export in more formats (PSD, TIF, JPG, PNG, and more—perfect for pretending you know what TIF is)
But wait, there’s more! If you also use Photoshop on the web, you unlock even MORE powerful tools like:
🖼 Camera RAW filter (edit those DSLR shots like a pro)
📐 Shapes & Layer Effects (for all your questionable graphic design choices)
🤖 AI-powered tools like Generate Similar & Reference Image (aka, Photoshop doing 90% of the work for you)
🎨 Text-to-Image AI (because why take photos when AI can just invent them?)
Should You Get It?
If you’re an iPhone user who loves over-editing everything, Photoshop for iPhone is basically a dream come true.
For casual users, the free version might be enough to erase exes, tourists, and unfortunate photobombs from your pictures.
But if you want real power, you’ll need to subscribe to Adobe’s Mobile & Web plan. Is it worth it?
Well, if you’ve ever wanted 20,000 fonts and AI-powered magic in your pocket, this is your moment.
As for Android users, be patient. Photoshop is coming for you… eventually.
