Feature Requests

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.

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

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!

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 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

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

Currently, when using the Caption translate option the text is translated and redistributed over the video but it creates mismatched and oddly timed captions. Sometimes the translated version merges lines from different speakers which is useless. There should be a checkbox like “keep original timing” so the text is translated line by line, maintaining the original captions’ TC.In the screenshot below you can see the original caption in the bottom track and the translated version above it. As you can see the cuts are totally different. Above in the monitor you can see the original text (red) and the translated version. They do not match. 

It's great that the "remove punctuation" option was added for subtitles. Thanks for that, Adobe.To round out this update, would it also be possible to add an option to remove capital letters?Thanks.

I apply Warp Stabilizer to most of my clips, but I cannot batch-apply it because Premiere tries to analyze all clips simultaneously. This overloads and freezes my computer.Please change Warp Stabilizer to process queued clips one at a time. This would allow us to batch-apply the effect safely without having to manually wait for each individual clip to finish before moving to the next.

it will be very useful if you can let us rotate the video material in project pannel from horizontal to vertical as ther is a lot of rcorded video is been catched in vertical model using l shape gimble and its been shown in premiere in horizontal and we cant rotatet it to see it the project pannel  

It would be super nice to have a search function inside of the project manager, or an option for it to display folders in the projects-tab. looking for a sequence inside of a list of every sequence you ever made in the project is a little tedious.  or maybe also let me select multiple timelines in the projects-tab and put them all into proj manager with the “project manager” shortcut, so they are all ticked as selected right away and I dont have to look for individual seq’s in a huge list. xo

Allow users the ability to see the filler words by checking a box or allowing it as a preference. Right now, we see [filler] or [...], and I’d like the option to see what the person actually said, or at least a guess by AI. Also, you cannot export a transcript with the filler words, even with the indicators for filler words. 

I'd like to request Indonesian language support for Premiere Pro's Text-Based Editing / auto-transcription feature.Currently, auto-transcription doesn't support Indonesian, which means Indonesian-language creators can't use the transcript panel to text-edit their footage (e.g., deleting a line in the transcript to cut the corresponding clip from the timeline).If native Indonesian transcription isn't feasible in the near term, an alternative would be very helpful: allow users to import an existing .srt subtitle file and have it populate the Transcript panel, just as auto-generated transcripts do. This would let us:Bring in Indonesian subtitles created elsewhere Use the transcript/text panel to edit — deleting a caption line removes the matching clip from the sequence Get the same editing speed benefits English-language users already haveThis would be a big workflow improvement for Indonesian and other underserved-language creators using Premiere. Thanks for considering it!

Video uusage and audio usage in bin metadata display need to be tracked through different projects in a production. On many occasions it would be important to know exactly in which sequences and projects a certain file has been used in a production. Now it seems that video and audio usage is tracked only within one project but this doesn't work if I have individual projects for music, audio or graphics and edit final sequences in different project inside the production.This would be super helpful when making music or archival reports ina bigger project. 

Feature request: The ability to create embedded AAF files larger than 2GB.In version 25, Adobe broke Premiere’s ability to create AAF files with embedded audio, larger than 2GB. Version 24 does not have this handicap. Professional editors who work on large projects and export AAF files for Audio Post in ProTools now have to export their projects in multiple parts, so that the AAF file for each part does not exceed 2GB.   For editors who need to export AAF’s every week, the fact that this introduced bug has not been fixed for a full version (up to v26.3 now) and still requires a workaround, is a constant reminder that perhaps Premiere is no longer for Professionals.   The Breaking out to mono and Rendering components of the AAF exporter still work fine.The problem is with the file writer that collects the individual files and embeds them into a single file - Premiere ASL error number: -2147286767.
