    You still haven't fixed the glyph problem, it's been FOUR years.

    I'm confused. Photoshop for iPhone was released just six months ago on February 25, 2025. What is the iPhone "glyph problem"? Please share a screenshot of your issue so we can better assist.

    Great update! 🔥 The Harmonize feature on iPhone is a game-changer - finally can do professional compositing on mobile! The AI-powered content removal looks super clean too.

    Quick question though - how much storage does the iPhone version need? Hope it won't slow down my phone 😅

    Definitely updating tonight! Thanks Adobe team! 👏
