Best Adobe app for editing photographs

I've been around forever, but I think my neurones are giving up. I use Adobe Acrobat DC on a daily basis, but now I am being asked to edit family/friends photographs to include things like spot fixing where the photo has deteriorated over time behind glass/plastic.

So of all Adobe's evolving range of software and applications which would be best for photo-touching up please. I really do not want to buy in to the whole range.

Thank you for reading and hopefully, answering my question. Sincerely, Peter Bsd

Correct answer Abambo

If you go for Photoshop, consider the Photography plan. I includes Photoshop and Lightroom Classic (Adobe adds also Lightroom, but with 20Gb of cloud space, Lightroom is practically unusable)

Thank you all three of you*** for getting back to me. Unsurprisingly in one way or another, all answers were correct and when combined, I bought the relevant package which I am now using (the 20GB Photography plan in case you were wondering 🙂

Depending on what you need to do, Lightroom Classic is a digital darkroom for desktop.  And Photoshop is a must have for more advanced retouching.  But the learning curve can be quite steep.  You'll find many tutorials on YouTube.

 

The Creative Cloud Photography Plan is deeply discounted software bundle aimed at photographers -- approx $10/month for 12 months and includes these great products.
-- Photoshop CC and Photoshop on iPad
-- Lightroom on desktop, mobile and the web
-- Lightroom Classic
-- Portfolio website + hosting
-- Spark with premium features
-- Bridge
-- 20 GB cloud storage (upgradable to 1 TB).
