Remove Tool & Distractions Tool for Windows ARM Processor Devices

After talking on the online chat, Harshit recommended submitting this on here.

After hours of searching why I was missing features within Photoshop, I found that the reason is because my device has a Windows ARM Processor. So far the features I've wanted to try out and realised I am missing are the remove tool and the remove distractions tool. Turns out they are within the web-based version which I can access on my Windows ARM Processor device, but they are not within the app version for my device.

Adobe currently has no date to add these features in for Windows ARM Processor devices, so I'd like to push that this is looked into and a development released which has this functionality. I specifically purchased my device for photo editing and not having full Photoshop functionality totally undermines why I bought the device and have the Adobe subscription...

 

PLEASE develope this for us Windows ARM Processor device users!

 

Thanks.

I'm also still waiting for this feature to become available. I would like to know when developers are planning to implement this, since if they won't I'll have to sell my ARM laptop to get something else that does run this feature.

I found the same problem, and asked Support, how can I use Remove Tool, at least, as a workaround. They send my this link, to be able to use this feature in Photoshop on the web: https://adobe.ly/3E3XKo4

I need Remove Tool on my Windows ARM too. I really don't know why Adobe can't implement this, given that Generative content is available. Seems just a non-sense.

You're welcome @smart_aurora5081.

 

You posted to Ideas, so the Photoshop developers will see your post whether or not they reply.

Thanks Jane.

 

Frustratingly when I bought the device, I took the advice of the "expert" in store specifically RE Photoshop & photography. I wasn't aware of any feature limitations due to the processor on the device, so it came as a shock to not have full functionality. As its a 2024 device though and one commonly used for photo editing, I should imagine that there is an audience for this development for ARM processors like my device and others using the same processor, so will leave this request here in the hope we get the same functionality as other processors do soon!
