I cannot figure out how to quickly apply my brand elements (color, logo, font) to a template. The videos I have seen do not apply to the new express layout....where is the "design" button??

Please tell me this feature is being reinstated. Like seriously, Adobe Express on my iPad is pointless because I can't use the branding feature. It seems to only be available on my laptop.

Any updates on "apply brand" option.  Makes no sense that this feature has been removed.

Has this now been fixed? Does anyone have a solution for this?

I have a number of clients who use this function in collboration with my company for their quick socials. I have sung your praises and a big point has been the brand library and the ease of application to templates. You have made us look stupid and they now want to go back to Canva.

I have clients who use this feature too, I've got them set up and subscribed with Adobe so that they can make their socials quickly - and it looks professional! Now I've just wasted a good hour of my time hunting for this feature I used last year, only to find it's gone. I'm screaming inside. I generated extra business for Adobe getting others subscribed, and now the sole purpose for that has been removed - why?

Registering my frustration here as well! The "apply brand" option was why many of us subscribed in the first place! We need this option.

Hi Adobe team, could you explain why you would you create a brand functionality that cannot be applied or used? This is so incredibly frustrating. Users want to apply and use the brand on templates. What is the point when it just means manually editing EVERYTHING?

Hello.

 

This workflow has changed. Apologies for the inconvenience. 

You can access your brand from within the new Adobe Express.

  • Open your design.
  • Now, click on "Your stuff"  in the left hand panel.

 

If you do not have a brand and were using Libraries, you can also convert your libraries from Photoshop or Illustrator to Brands in Adobe Express.

  • From Home or the Editor, navigate to Your Stuff > Libraries.
  • Hover over your desired library and click Use as brand.

 

This will allow you to use your previous brand elements available in "Your Stuff" to an existing design.

 

Here are two screenshots to help you get your brand elements into a template.

To follow-up, we don't currently have the one-click "Apply brand" capability in the new Express. Please upvote or comment here as it helps with prioritization: https://adobeexpress.uservoice.com/forums/951181-adobe-express/suggestions/46925470-one-click-apply-brand

The links provided do not solve the problem. They all teach how to CREATE a brand. I already have a brand. I've been using this feature successfully until the latest update. My brand still exists but I cannot APPLY the brand to the templates.
