What is Adobe Photoshop Touch?
Creative compositing meets multitouch fun in Adobe® Photoshop® Touch for Android tablets. Combine multiple images, edit specific elements, and apply filters and other effects—and get great guidance from interactive tutorials. Share your creations to Facebook and view comments right within the app. Sync your files with Adobe Creative Cloud so they're easy to open in Photoshop for further editing.
The inside view
John Nack
As Principal Product Manager on Adobe's Digital Imaging team, John has helped develop the last five versions of Adobe Photoshop. With Photoshop Touch, he wants to bring Adobe imaging magic to a whole new audience—and make creative editing and compositing easier and more delightful.
Easy image acquisition
"Whether you want to capture photos via a live feed from your tablet's camera or you want to bring in photos from Facebook or from a Google search, Photoshop Touch makes it incredibly easy to acquire images from just about anywhere."
Scribble selections
"If I had to boil the app down to one feature, it's this: Take two images, remove the background from one, and then blend the two images together to create a new scene. The Scribble Selection tool lets you use your finger or a stylus to quickly draw on the foreground object you want to keep and the background you want to delete. Then tap Extract, and the background disappears."
Support for layers
"Photoshop Touch brings the power of layers to tablet imaging. Combine multiple images on layers, adjust the order of layers, and control layer opacity to create sophisticated composites. And layers are preserved when you bring them into Photoshop on your desktop via Adobe Creative Cloud."
Professional effects
"You get a range of effects and filters—everything from basics like blurs, glows, and drop shadows to stylized looks like Old Photocopy and Glass to more artistic looks. And you can apply them to your entire image or a specific layer or selection to get just the result you envision."
Social sharing
"Once you've created something you're excited about, you can get it out to your friends on Facebook from directly within the app. And you don't have to go to your Facebook page or your email inbox to see people's reactions, because their comments show up directly within Photoshop Touch."
Quick tip
"You can double-tap the layer stack and then drag your image to view the layers in three-dimensional space, which is a cool way for newer users to learn how the concept of layers works."
