Hello, everyone!

 

We'd like to remind you that Adobe Express is not officially supported on any BETA versions of operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, Android, macOS, or Windows. For desktop users, the same applies to beta versions of web browsers.

 

Beta versions can be unstable, contain bugs, and change frequently, causing compatibility issues with apps and services.  

 


What you need to know!

 

If you're using a beta OS and encounter issues while using the product, we recommend switching to the last official OS version to ensure the best performance and compatibility.

  • To opt out of iOS beta releases, follow: Settings > General > Software Update> Beta Updates > Turn it off.
  • To uninstall the iOS beta version and revert to the prior iOS on the device, refer toHow to uninstall iOS or iPadOS beta software
  • If you're using an Android device and want to opt out of Beta releases, refer to: Android Beta Program

Note: We only support Adobe Express on official OS & browser versions to ensure a smooth and consistent user experience.

    Hello Adobe Community Team,

    I am writing to report a critical bug I've been consistently experiencing with the Adobe Express mobile application. The app completely freezes and becomes

    unresponsive when I try to access certain sections from the home screen.

    Problem Description:
    Whenever I tap on any of the options under the "Quick editing tools" section (like 'Remove background', 'Animate characters', etc.) or any of my projects in the "Recent files" section, the application hangs indefinitely. The only way to recover is to force-quit the app and relaunch it. The main navigation and other parts of the home screen seem to work fine, but these two specific sections are unusable for me at the moment.

    I have recorded a screen video demonstrating this exact behavior, which I can provide upon request.

    Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Launch the Adobe Express app on an iPhone running iOS 26 Developer Beta.
    2. On the home screen, scroll down to the "Quick editing tools" section.
    3. Tap on any tool (e.g., "Remove background").
    4. Actual Result: The app freezes.
    5. Force-quit and relaunch the app.
    6. On the home screen, scroll down to the "Recent files" section.
    7. Tap on any recent project.
    8. Actual Result: The app freezes again.

    Expected Result:
    The app should open the selected tool or project file without freezing.

    My System & App Details:

    • Application: Adobe Express Mobile

    • App Version: 28.1.0

    • Device: iPhone 15 Pro Max

    • Operating System: iOS 26 Developer Beta

    I understand that using a developer beta version of an OS can cause instability. However, I wanted to report this issue so the engineering team is aware of it and can hopefully address it in a future update, as it may affect other beta testers and eventually the public release.

    Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to a resolution.

    Best regards,

    Berkay

    I can't open any single project. I've restarted my phone, signed out of this app, and deleted this app but yet nothing fixes this issue. I can open the app like normal but once I try to open any projects I get stuck on the express logo just flashing and flashing and flashing.

     

    I'm using iPhone 16 Plus

    Express 28.1.0

    iOS 26.0

     

    This app works and opens projects when I use it on my MacBook but not on my iPhone.

    Hi

    ,

    Thanks for reaching out! We're sorry to hear about this. Please ensure you're using the updated version of iOS and there are no updates pending. Also, try to free up some space in your device and see if that helps.

    Same thing here. Same iOS but iPhone 15 Pro. Tried deleting and reinstalling the app and it just glitches every time you try to open a file.

    Hi @cloonans,

     

    Thank you for your feedback, and sorry for the trouble. Since you're using iOS 26 Beta, some compatibility issues may occur. Please try the following steps:

    • Make sure you're using the latest version of the app

    • Close background apps to free up system resources

    • Ensure there’s enough storage available on your device

    If the issue continues, we recommend using a stable iOS version where possible. We appreciate your understanding.

    I used to be able to upload and add photos to projects on creative cloud express but recently I've been unable to add photos and use them in projects with the process being halted indefinitely whenever I click "Add your image" or any other alternative to adding an image (screenshot related) . So far I've tried logging in and out of the browser, trying other browsers, trying to see if it was possible to add photos on other projects, trying other devices ALTOGETHER, and all of them have had this same exact issue.

    Hi Christian, 

     

    Sorry for the trouble. I hope this will help. Clearing browser cache and then logging in using a new "Incognito" (Chrome), "Private" (Safari), or a similar window. Projects should be available usually afterward. You can try reinstalling the app, signing out of the app, and then signing back in. Try checking these things and report back with any observations. Thanks for your patience in resolving this problem.

     

    Thanks
