You know The software is a success when its name becomes a verb: now you will usually hear about photos of photos, even if not edited with the Adobe Image Editor. Adobe may not like it, but the use shows how its flagship product has dominated.
Although on mobile, Photoshop has not identified similar supremacy or brand. We have various types of official photoshop apps below the years, but none of them have really translated the power and feature set of desktop applications into small devices that work fully.
Now, Adobe is trying again: all the new Photoshop app (now available for iOS, and has just been released for the beta Android), the photoshop for a smartphone is “re -concept”. The app used on mobile touch screen while improving them, seeking to bring more tools and features of full software.
Although it is impossible to portray everything – so Maclos won’t work on the iPhone – there is a lot to discover in the new Photoshop app. You can download it for free on iOS, though some features require premium subscriptions (either a month for a new mobile and web plan, $ 7, or current Photoshop plan). Android users can download the beta version and use it for a limited time. Regular pricing will begin when the app is usually available worldwide.
Instant actions
By default, when you open a new picture in the iOS version, you will be invited to “quick action” on it. (Android users, it’s coming soon.) If you go straight to the editing interface each time, check out Don’t show it again Box, and tap Go to the editor. However, if you want to apply the basic effect in the short range of time, these immediate steps can be helpful.
You will see that all of them include the background. Tap Hide the backgroundAnd Photoshop tries to identify the central subject of icon, and cut the rest – then you can leave any alternative background you like. As an alternative, there is The background of solid colorIn which you can edit, or fall into color Black and white background, Which keeps the subject in color but turns everything a gray scale.
Whatever you choose, Photoshop will take care of creating a new layer for you, so you can work freely and backgrounds. You will see that the layers are available through the thumbnail in the lower right corner of the image. With a solid color background, for example, layer thumbnail, then tap the left arrow, then Edit the color To switch to a different shade.

The layers and masks are basically the ones that separate the basic image editors from the sophisticated, which allows you to stack and edit different elements in an image above each other (layers) (masks). If you have used the immediate action you have already made a layer for you, but you can make new by tapping + (Plus) On the right side of the bottom of the toolbar on the right side.
