    This is a really welcome update! Layer Styles are something I use all the time on desktop, so having Stroke, Drop Shadow, and the other effects available directly on mobile will make quick edits much more efficient. I'm especially looking forward to using them for social media graphics and UI mockups when I'm away from my computer. Thanks to the team for continuing to bring more desktop-level features to the mobile app!
