Adobe brings Photoshop Touch to iPad

PanARMENIAN.Net - Adobe is bringing Photoshop Touch to the iPad as part of a suite of creative apps for Apple’s iOS, All Things D reported.

The app was previously only available for Android devices.

Photoshop Touch lets users layer images, touch up photos and use “paint” tools, with a few swipes on the iPad. It also includes a Scribble Selection Tool for removing objects from photos, the ability to search for images through Google Image search, and a quick-sharing option through Facebook.

The app costs $9.99 and currently works only on iPad 2. Adobe already has an iPad app available for photo touch-ups - Adobe Photoshop Express - but it’s a much more limited version of Photoshop.

Adobe plans to introduce a handful of other creative apps for iPad 2 later this year, including Adobe Collage, Adobe Ideas and Adobe Proto, for Web site and mobile-app prototyping. These apps will all work with Adobe’s Creative Cloud services.

Adobe is also introducing a video ad service, codenamed Project Primetime, for producing and publishing ads that will work across Apple iOS and Google Android devices, desktops operating systems, and “smart” (Internet-connected) TVs, including Samsung TVs.
