Is Photoshop Express a free download?

Yes, Adobe Photoshop Express is free to download across various platforms, including the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Microsoft Store. This free Express version offers a range of basic photo editing tools such as cropping, resizing, filters, and adjustments for brightness and contrast.

What’s the difference between Photoshop Express and the full Photoshop?

Photoshop Express offers a streamlined set of tools focused on basic photo editing. It doesn’t support advanced features like layers, comprehensive text editing, or RAW file processing. Certain features, such as subject/background selection, are more intuitive and simplified in Photoshop Express than in the full Photoshop.

Are Photoshop Express and Photoshop compatible?

Yes. You can send PSD files from Express to Photoshop to access more advanced editing tools.

Does Photoshop Express work offline?

Most tools and editing functions in Photoshop Express work offline. However, certain features involving cloud storage, Adobe Fonts, or AI-powered tools require an internet connection.

Can I edit RAW files in Photoshop Express?

Yes, you can edit RAW files in Photoshop Express, but only if you have a premium subscription. The free version does not support RAW editing. With the paid tier, the app allows basic adjustments to RAW files, though it’s not as feature-rich as Lightroom or Adobe Camera Raw.

How do I save photos in high resolution from Photoshop Express?

To save photos in high resolution, go to the app’s settings and check that the image resize option is set to “Original Size.” By default, Photoshop Express preserves the resolution, but certain tools like the collage maker might compress the output. It’s a good idea to verify the image quality after saving to ensure no unwanted downscaling has occurred.

Can I edit images hosted on Google Photos?

Yes. Photoshop Express integrations allow you to pull your photos, selfies, HDR images, and more directly from Google Photos, Dropbox, and Facebook.
