What stinks is that someone told me I COULD use these programs with an iPad as i’ve Been a long time Mac user my whole life and don’t have one right now. As a graphic designer this is debilitating. I signed up literally one week ago and now see posts that someone with IPad Pro CAN download Creative Cloud Apps. I miss photoshop and it’s tools A LOT!

Does anyone know the REAL answer to this question?

Or does anyone know how to access a real person, with whom to discuss cancelling after one week?  I signed up for a year. Phooey

All support directions are loooping me all over the website.

Frustrated and Cloudless   =(

This just goes to a generic link to that community's home page, Bani. Can you post a direct link please?

Since John Waller's mention of 'rumors' back in September turned out to be true, I'd like to follow this thread. My hope is that now that the full version of Photoshop has been made for iOS, there plans to adapt other apps (Illustrator, XD and InDesign, specifically).

Bani branched this thread from a different one, because OP posted to the wrong thread and then moved into a different forum, as the forum for this thread was not appropriate. This entry is informal for all users, but bears no solution to the problem. But the information could be helpful for the OP and all people having posted a response to that thread.

now see posts that someone with IPad Pro CAN download Creative Cloud Apps.

This is where some confusion about the Adobe Cloud can creep in. The Creative Cloud comes with two types of apps: desktop and mobile.

Desktop apps, such as full Photoshop, currently require a full desktop operating system such as Sierra or High Sierra (for Macs) or Windows 10..

iPad Pros run the iOS mobile operating system so, at the moment, they can only run Cloud mobile apps.

See Adobe mobile apps for iPhone, iPad, Android | Adobe Creative Cloud

Available mobile apps for iOS on iPad Pro include Photoshop Mix, Fix and Express. Obviously, none of those matches the toolset of full Photoshop.

There are rumours that Adobe is working on bringing full Photoshop to the iPad.

The  iPad hardware is just about there. The big challenge seems to be making all of Photoshop's tiny buttons, sliders, icons and flyout menus touch-friendly with or without the Apple Pencil.
