Adobe is officially launching Photoshop for Android in beta, and making even its premium features free for a limited time. If you’re an Android user, this is your chance to get full access to Photoshop’s tools without paying a cent.
For A Limited Period, Photoshop on Android is Giving You Access to Premium Paid Tools and Features
Photoshop has been free on the iPhone since February 2025, offering core image editing tools for mobile users.
You can now find the real Photoshop app by searching “Photoshop” in the Play Store. And just like on iPhone, this version gives you access to Adobe’s powerful editing features on the go.
Free Tools on Mobile
The app includes key Photoshop tools at no cost:
- Layers, selections, and masks
- Tap Select and Spot Healing Brush
- Adobe Firefly AI (Generative Fill and Expand)
- Adobe Stock assets
- Integration with Adobe Express, Fresco, and Lightroom
For basic editing and AI-powered features, this version already does a lot. The design feels more like a mobile app than a desktop replica, so even if you’re used to Photoshop on your computer, there might be a short learning curve.
Premium Features: Free for Now on Android
Adobe also offers a “Photoshop Mobile and Web” plan for $7.99/month, which includes:
- Photoshop on the web
- More AI tools (like Generate Similar)
- Object Select, Magic Wand, Clone Stamp
- Content-Aware Fill
- Extra fonts and advanced blend modes
Normally, these are paid features. But Android users get free access to all of them while the beta is live. This is a great time to test them out before Adobe eventually locks them behind a subscription.
Final Thoughts
It’s great to see Adobe finally bring its full mobile Photoshop experience to Android. If you’re into mobile photography or digital art, this version is definitely worth checking out while it’s still free, especially with the premium perks included for now.
Photoshop’s Android release fills a major gap in Adobe’s ecosystem, and now both major platforms are covered. Whether you’re on iPhone or Android, you can now carry powerful image editing tools in your pocket.
