Hi @Rosalynne31586704n3z5,

 

Thank you for reporting this issue. Please ensure your browser is fully updated, try using a different supported browser, and temporarily disable any extensions that could cause conflicts. If the Eyedropper and Duplicate tools still do not work after clearing your cache, please share your browser version and a brief screen recording so we can investigate further and assist you.

Hi,

 

We have deployed a fix for this bug. Please give it a try now and let us know if you continue to run into issues using the eye dropper (you may need to restart the app). Sorry for the incovenience.

The color picker is not working in Adobe Express on any graphics at this point.  When you click to utilize the color picker, it lets you slide over the graphic and choose a color, but then does not change the color when you click the check mark to indicate you are done.  SO FRUSTRATING.  

 

Version 26.0.2 Adobe Express on iOS version 17.5.1 on a mobile device.

I have the same issue. This worked previously in the new Adobe Express.

I have been trying for about 2 weeks now to get the duplicate feature and the eye dropper feature to work. I am using Express on my iPhone 13 and am just now realizing that social media icons are gone too from the effects tab when editing text! All these changes and bugs are driving me crazy! Please fix this or make it 100% free again!

Hey. the color picker tool on the mobile iOS app isn't working for me 

 

i have an iPhone 11 / iOS 17.5.1 / version 26.0.2 of the Adobe Expresss app 

 

1. Click "Background color" 

2. Choose "Color picker" 

3. Select desired area 

4. Click check to set desire area as background color 

 

expected result: background color changes to desired area color

actual result: background color remains the same, no error message

The eye dropper tool recognizes a color but when you click the check to complete, the color change doesn't execute (nothing happens....no color changes at all).

noticed when trying to match an object to a color in an image and also when I tried to match text color to either an object or an image. 

please fix asap and thank you!
