What’s New in Adobe Express — August Highlights
August saw quite a few updates ranging from new features in beta, rollout support for Arabic, and (finally!) a Dark Mode option for Adobe Express!
Let’s look at the highlights…
Events (Beta): Design the Invite, Track the RSVPs
This is the headliner. Create event is now in beta, and it turns any invitation into a real event page. Design your own invite or start from a template, publish it as an event with its own link, and share it. Guests RSVP straight from the link, and you watch the responses come in - no separate invite tool, no side spreadsheet.
| What you can do | How it works |
|---|---|
| Start from an invitation | Design your own or pick an invitation template, then Share → Show all → Create event |
| Publish an RSVP page | Add the date, time, and location, and Express spins up an event page with its own link to copy and send by email or text |
| Collect RSVPs | Guests reply attending or not, add their name, headcount, and a note for you — and can update it later if plans change |
| Cut down on no-shows | Guests can add the event straight to their own calendar in one tap |
| Track it in one place | Open Manage RSVPs to watch responses roll in; edit the design or details anytime from Manage event and guests always see the latest version |
A few things worth knowing: Create event is in beta, so it's live to try and send feedback on. You can invite up to 1,000 guests per event. One privacy note to flag if guests ask - when someone RSVPs, their name, email, and any note they leave are shared with you as the host so you can manage the event. Learn more about creating events
