i update photoshop cc 2017 to 2018 this morning..and shock~ i can't preview my photoshop app design on iphone ..and i found the answer..
"Device Preview is no longer available in this release. Additionally, the Preview CC iOS app is no longer available for download or actively maintained as of October 2017. If you have a previously-downloaded version of Preview CC on your iOS device, you can continue to use it on an as-is basis with earlier versions of Photoshop"

so now.. how can i get real-time previews of my Photoshop designs on iOS devices ?

why Adobe takes off this feature??? TT....

You should all go to Photoshop CC 2018: Do you plan to include Device Preview? | Photoshop Family Customer Community and up vote the request to bring back Device Preview. Perhaps that will persuade Adobe to bring it back.

Yea wonder why Adobe and its devs have separate things going on, such a fragmented way to collect user feedback...

Please, Adobe, you should rollback to Device Preview till XD isn't able to export in psd (for front-end developper).

I had to re-install Photoshop 15.5 to work for my clients.
I also work a lot with XD, but it's not a complete solution today.

Yeah, removing a major feature like this is ridiculous. Whatever Adobe community manager is monitoring these threads, please submit our feedback that we are NOT happy about this removal from Photoshop CC 2018, especially with no notice.

It's fine that the functionality exists in XD. I can use the Type tool across Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign too. Just because one application has a feature doesn't mean it has to be lost in another app, unless as others have pointed out, this is a deceptive strong-arm technique to try to force users to adapt to XD. Many people don't want or need to do that.

Having updaters remorse. Presentation with client tomorrow. Now at am a loss to show him site design across all platforms. Poor decision by Adobe. Love most updates, but this one is a stinker.

I started making some mobile app screens this morning, and spent 30 mins looking for the Device Preview tab until I decided to Google up where in the world did it go.

ADOBE STOP RUINING PHOTOSHOP.

NOT COOL.

Ugh. If such an ugly product decision was made, Adobe should offer an explanation as to why.

I completely agree with everyone here. I'm using XD AND Photoshop and I really counted on Device Preview. This doesn't make any sense! How about an official response?

I'm having trouble connecting "Canvas for Photoshop" to Photoshop. I have Photoshop CC 2018 on PC and went into Menu>Edit>Remote Connections and added my password and name and restarted Photoshop. But in the app on my iPhone X when I go into Setup(Settings)>Connection(computer) "Tap to Connect"...  I only get "You can setup Adobe Photoshop From "Edit" > "Remote Connections". I don't know what to do?

The phone and computer must be connected to the same wi-fi network.

Try writing a different server name.
