The "Increment and Save" command in After Effects serves the fundamental need in professional creative work of preserving the various development stages of a job. Cinema 4D and other pro software packages also have this. Photoshop should too.

i would love this too. From what I understand, the ancient .psd format is what's getting in the way...

EVERY Adobe application should have "Increment and Save." Premiere, Animate, Illustrator, Photoshop, ALL OF THEM!

Hi, I also wish for a native increment and save, just FYI, there is a third party script that does it: https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/3bYW/increment-save-photoshop-script

 

edit: the old script does not exist anymore, see this one: https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/XOdlp/save-as-today-s-date-auto-version-up-photoshop-script

say you are making a whole series of pictures "famouse_picture 01.jpeg" to "famouse_picture 09.jpeg".
you save the first picture name "famouse_picture 01.jpeg" and then when you are ready to save the next picture you press a plus sign and it'll save it as "famouse_picture 02.jpeg" and so on.
or you simply press shift+control+s and ps will save that layer with its incremental added to the file

I wish Photoshop had an incremental "save" function built in.
