Feature Requests

I've been using Premiere Pro for many years, and I genuinely love the software. It's still my primary editor because it's fast, reliable, and integrates perfectly with the Adobe ecosystem.However, I honestly feel that Premiere Pro is slowly falling behind when it comes to modern social media editing.The editing industry has changed dramatically over the last few years. Today, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok and Facebook videos are a huge part of professional video production. Unfortunately, Premiere still lacks many features that have become standard for this type of work.Some examples:Responsive text backgrounds with rounded corners. Individual background boxes for each text line instead of one large rectangle. Modern text animation presets for social media. Word-by-word caption animations. Better kinetic typography. More caption styles. AI-powered subtitle correction (too many words are still transcribed incorrectly). Better responsive text boxes. Easier creation of reusable

Please copy the After Effects “Render Queue” incorporating it into Premiere. Reason: helpful list of renders with links to the render's location on the drive. It's saved me many times.AE Render Queue with clickable links to saved drive locations. 

Add support for editing with media remaining in place on external USB-connected drives (such as via the Files app) on iOS and iPadOS. LumaFusion is a great example of a iPhone/iPad app that allows this (as do Resolve and Final Cut on iPad)

The new masking tool in premiere is terrible. I’m so tired of adobe taking thousands of my dollars for their subscription based crap, and then implementing “updates” that no one asked for while there are bugs that haven’t been fixed for 10 years. With the new masking tool, I now have to double the amount of steps and triple the amount of time it takes to make a basic mask transition with a straight object passing through the frame. When I have keyframes ON and move the position/path each frame, it doesn’t create a new keyframe. I have to manually click it for EVERY. SINGLE. FRAME. This is ridiculous. You would think oh, the tracker can track a straight line across the screen? WRONG. If its slightly out of focus, like something in your foreground would probably be, it doesn’t even know what it is tracking. To make this ridiculous and stupid change and then to NOT have a legacy mode is even more stupid. Why am I paying adobe for this garbage? As soon as my subscription is up with adobe,

The feature request for Premiere Assistant to add adjustment layers directly onto the sequence aims to enhance the editing workflow by streamlining the process of applying effects and color corrections across multiple clips.Currently, editors often need to manually create and position adjustment layers, which can be time-consuming and disrupt the creative flow. By enabling Premiere Assistant to automate this task, users could simply specify the desired effects or adjustments, and the Assistant would create and place the adjustment layer in the timeline accordingly.

I recently updated to Premiere Pro 2026 and went to create a mask. To my surprise and confusion, there was no option to do so in the Effect Controls. So, after being forced to research it online, I finally found that masks were inexplicably moved to the toolbar. Annoying and unnecessary, but whatever. I went to try keyframing the mask path… and nothing happened. I then had to conduct further research online to find out that, for some reason, I have to right-click on the mask and assign it to “Opacity.” Another extra step that makes no sense. So, I figured that it should finally work. Spoiler: it did not. At this point, I was enraged. Ready to punch my monitor, throw my PC out the window, mere seconds from a crashout. What else could I possibly need to do to create something so simple as an opacity mask? After consulting the internet for the THIRD time, I found that I’m supposed to switch the mask from “Frame” mode to “Clip” mode. Unbelievable. What is it with Adobe and fixing stuff tha

Please add the Masks folder destination to the Project Settings - Scratch Disks panel so editors can control where it’s stored.Right now, having it auto-create in unmanaged locations: Creates unnecessary project clutter Disrupts organized folder structures Complicates backup workflows For those of us who maintain strict file hierarchies (especially in professional post-production environments), centralized media and cache control is essential. Every other major generated asset type can be directed — Masks should be consistent with that logic.Y’all - Please upvote so we can get this added!!

I would love premiere to have a list of featuresbloom effect halation effect object tracking and stabilisation - so that i dont need to go to ae to do the job depth map so that the background colors can be manupulated. the object masking tool creates a halo effect near the ears its not accurate Profession video de noiser or de grain

When i create a project in a certian directory, i edit the video and while exporting, I need to choose the directory again to save the video, it should bring in the directory path which i used to open the project in the export page automatically. Cause every edit file has a different directory for me. It will make my life easier.

Currently, when I create keyframes on an audio track in Adobe Premiere and later make timeline edits (such as trimming or rearranging clips), the keyframes remain fixed at their original positions. This often causes misalignment between audio adjustments and the edited sequence, requiring tedious manual corrections.A valuable enhancement would be to introduce an option similar to “Markers → Ripple Sequence Markers”, allowing users to choose whether audio track keyframes should maintain their relative timing and move with the edits (ripple) or stay locked to their original positions. This flexibility would greatly improve workflow efficiency when making structural changes after detailed audio adjustments. Example Use Case:When recording a voice-over and mixing “live” using submixes, it becomes extremely cumbersome to make changes later—such as closing a gap before an interview soundbite (O-Ton). Without ripple functionality, every keyframe adjustment must be manually realigned, whi

Is it any chance for Speech-to-Text to get a Ukrainian language support in Premiere Pro? That is a huge time saver feature, but it isn't available on Ukrainian. All Ukrainian creators would be eternally grateful for our language support in this great software. 

Dear Adobe Support Team,I am writing to request that Adobe Premiere Pro add support for WebM files in its video editing software. I have found it frustrating that WebM files are not currently supported in the software. WebM is a popular video format used by a lot of people on the web, particularly for online content such as YouTube videos.Currently, I am unable to import WebM files into Premiere Pro and edit them directly, which limits my ability to work efficiently and creatively. It would be very helpful if Adobe could add support for WebM files in the next version of Premiere Pro or through an update.I rely on Premiere Pro to produce high-quality content. The lack of support for WebM files makes it difficult for me to work with content that has been recorded or exported in this format. This has caused frustration and delays in my work, which could be avoided if WebM files were supported.I believe that adding support for WebM files would greatly enhance the user experience and h

Premiere desperately needs a more intelligent way of relinking media. Sometimes I need to quickly open a large project to look for something but I have to wait a full age of man before I can actually look at anything in my sequence because relinking is so ABSURDLY slow!   Can we please have the option to relink only the media from a specific sequence and not the ENTIRE project. It's just one the many unnecessary slow downs, and all these little bottlenecks are by far the worst part of editing in premiere

I would like to request an improvement to the Trim Mode interface in Premiere Pro. Currently, when entering Trim Mode, the program monitor splits or provides a layout that feels cramped compared to Avid Media Composer.I want an option to automatically switch to a dedicated, large dual-monitor layout—similar to Avid's Trim Mode—where both the Source (outgoing) and Program (incoming) frames are displayed in full size across the screen.The current dynamic trim workspace doesn't provide enough visual clarity for precision frame-by-frame trimming on complex timelines. Having a native, spacious Avid-style trim interface would significantly improve the cutting workflow for long-form and narrative editors.Thank you for considering this request!

Please add the following settings1. Ability to disable zoom on the program window or change mouse scroll wheel behavior. While scrubbing on the timeline with the mouse wheel it's prone to accidentally moving the cursor over the video and unintentionally zooming causing a frustrating experience.2. Setting to disable the nodes on audio transitions in the sequence timeline. They make it more difficult to make edits in the timeline.   Mod note: The title was changed slightly

Sono un utente professionista di Adobe Audition da oltre 25 anni specializzato nel sound design e nell'editing audio multipista per il settore del fitness musicale ad alto livello (Indoor Cycling / Aerobica ecc). Per il mio flusso di lavoro chirurgico sulla forma d'onda, utilizzo ancora oggi con enorme soddisfazione la storica versione Audition 3.01, che ritengo imbattibile sotto molti aspetti musicali. Con questa nota desidero sottoporre alla vostra attenzione una forte richiesta di feedback a nome di una vasta fetta di professionisti dell'audio: il reinserimento del motore di estrazione e analisi dei BPM e della griglia temporale basata sui quarti musicali, strumenti che erano nativi e perfetti nella versione 3.01 e che sono stati successivamente rimossi nelle suite Creative Cloud. Oggi, nel 2026, il mercato multimediale è dominato dai contenuti short-form (Reel di Facebook e Instagram, TikTok, Shorts di YouTube). Chi lavora nel montaggio audio e video ha la necessità assoluta di sin

Please make it more intuitive to rename speakers after transcription without having to manually pull up the source file and open the text option in the source file. When attempting to rename speakers in the timeline mode, automatically bring me to the source file and into the rename option… save me some steps and make this more intuitve please. 

In Premiere 26.3.0 (build 93), blue alerts currently slide in at the bottom-right of the UI to confirm actions like exports and imports. For example:Exporting a still frame shows a blue alert with the full path to the exported file, such as: “Exported frame /Volumes/WK_SSD_4TB_A/GFX/STILLS/…Still003.jpg.” Using the Watchtower panel to import files from a monitored Finder folder into a specific bin shows a blue alert like: “[PROJECT].prproj: 1 file imported in 03C_PHOTOS, STILLS.”  However, clicking these alerts only opens the Events panel. The Events panel shows a log of recent events, but in the moment when the alert appears, what I actually need is quick navigation to the asset or bin referenced in the notification. The alert already contains the exact filename, path, project, and bin information—yet none of that is actionable with a click. This creates friction in everyday workflows:When I export a still, the very next step is usually to reveal that image in Finder/Explorer or bring

when I hover over the program panel to scroll through the timeline with my scroll wheel on my mouse the update apparently makes it zoom into the video instead of scrubbing through the timeline. This is extremely frustrating. Zooming into the frame is never a feature I wanted so it's completely useless. I need to be able to scrub the timeline with the cursor over the video in the program monitor for more than one reason. One, to fine tune my cuts which is the majority of what I do when I'm editing all day. So, I need this to not be a problem I have to constantly deal with all day every day. The way it suddenly is now there's a fine, unseen line between where I can scrub the timeline and where it zooms into the video and half the time I cross that line and zoom into the video. I then have to select "fit" until it happens again and knocks it out of "fit" into some percentage. Another time when I need the program panel to scrub with the cursor over the video is if I'm moving an object to c

When I hover over a clip in the timeline a popup appears showing the clip duration etc, which is useful.When I hover over an empty gap in the timeline, even if I’ve selected that empty gap, a hover > popup does not appear. It’d be useful if one would appear telling me the duration of that gap, so I know how much footage I need to fill it.

I had following problem when transcribing sources: There is no way to change the options for it (for me in that example the number of speakers). An such, there will be only one speaker using that way of transcribing the source clips.Only one button that has no way to open the settings (sorry for the German UI): Unfortunately there is no way to select that clips and trigger a transcription in the context menu from the timeline window as there only one transcription command is available “ignore transcript”: In the project window/panel however, there is a command “transcribe again” and that one will show the transcription settings window where I can set “multiple speakers”: Problem with that is, I have to search the clips in the list of files. Often I don’t want every clip to be transcribed for a reason as transcribing b-roll clips will just add clutter to the transcription panel. Easy fix(es): Add the “transcribe again” option to the context menu in the timeline window or/and a way to ha

There must be a way to do this - in Davinici it's literally a check box on export. Please can someone help me

It’s 2026, AI, robo-dogs, bases on the Moon, but Premiere still has no means of automatic horizon leveling in the footage. Isn’t it time already?I understand that to add such a feature Adobe have to think through the mechanism of analyzing a video since it demands one, so an automatic horizon leveling could be easily incorporated into the Warp stabilizer since you analyze your footage anyways when you need to fix something there. No need to add it into the Search or any other AI features as separate ones, just an old good Warp stab. 

There is this tiny option the Effect controls panel in (any) Premiere called  Anti-flicker FilterIn all my 15 years of video editing in Premiere this feature did nothing. Ever. It does not remove flicker or even change anything when you bump it up. In no case. Not a single one.The official info page dedicated to this feature says:Thin lines and sharp edges in images sometimes flicker when shown on interlaced displays, such as Anti-flicker Filter control in Effect Controls > Motion can reduce or eliminate this flicker. So it is rather a redundant feature that is of no use in 2026 because it has never produced any results that can be seen on old or new monitors or TV sets.It does not help here: or here:(these are no-fields by the way)I haven’t found any case where the result of what it does can be seen. Unfortunately I don’t know where you can get an “interlaced display” nowadays so my verdict is straight forward - this feature is outdated and it just takes some real estate in the Eff
