I lost years worth of work with this new version and I cannot get anyone at Adobe to offer tech support or workarounds for losing all my work.  Way to go if you want to lose customers Adobe. Take their money, offer no solutions or tech support and destroy their work product.

Agree completely. I don't have time to learn it all over again, find the things I created that Adobe hid, or deal with all the bugs. Why do this? 

I mean...even the BUG REPORTING SYSTEM IS BROKEN.

@Colleen SS - This is so far from accurate it's hard not to laugh. I attached a view of my screen scaled to 67%. You can see the month is not visible. What part of "viewing the whole month" would you consider this to be? It only becomes visible when scaled to 33% and then thumbnails to understand what each post is about become illegible. It used to be much easier with Content Calendar, the system that actually worked well and was easy to use before Adobe Express took over. Your latest update has caused us a  lot of strife, and we aren't happy about using this product and actively seeking alternatives.

@Patricia294085717lkn Content Scheduler now allows you to view by week and by month. If you select month in the top right corner you should be able to see the entire month at a glance.

The ability to duplicate posts is not currently available in the new version of Adobe Express, but we will be reintroducing this feature alongside a new, and highly requested feature, the ability to allow for multiple account publishing. With multiple account publishing you can connect not just one Instagram account but multiple ones and the same. This will apply for all available social media channels. We are all really excited to bring you this new enhancement, but it did come with some implications, one of those being how you duplicate content and how you'd share content from one Instagram account to another. In the interim, you can upvote the request here in UserVoice and you will be notified as soon as the feature changes status: Duplicate a social media post

 

You can learn more about the updates to made to Content Scheduler here: Content Scheduler Q&A

Agree the new layout is poor. I cannot view the entire month on 1 screen. I have to scroll to try to see it all. It doesn't help when I need the whole month in 1 view as we had before to plan our social media calendar more easily. I don't understand why Adobe had to change the layout of the scheduler like this. BOO!

Hi Adobe™, I've been recently finding it really hard adjusting to the new Updates with you're Adobe express app. I've been using it for almost 2 years now and the new updates made it all very confusing, and its also much harder to understand and figure things out, and as a howl is just making things harder, I use it on a daily bases, whether it is for school or for fun, its an important app to me. my issues are the new layout, and you made some previously free fonts and features a premium feature! during the update a lot of my projects glitched and are now a complete mess, and since its a lot harder to use it now, everything is just falling apart! I'm trying to get use to it, But the change is just a bit to much for me. the main problem though is that everything docent work right, most projects I've made are all weird, some fonts are different sizes, all spread out, layers are in random orders. I wouldn't you all to do much about this as I am just one person but there wisent any real need to update express, photo shop and all that have been basically untouched in terms of re designed and adobe express not much different, Hope all is well - Zach Bidwell

I also noticed that I can't duplicate a post anymore. So, if I've create my versions for FB, IG, and LinkedIn and schedule them, then I want to duplicate one to create a shorter version for Twitter -- NOPE. I have to start all over, re-upload the photo, re-enter the text, etc. Removing basic features like duplicating a post is not helpful, Adobe!!!
