Is there a way to still get to the old version of Adobe Express?

[DVous]

The link disappeared to use the original Adobe Express. Is there a way to still use it? The new version is terrible for scheduling social posts. One important feature that is gone is the ability to right-click on a previous post and duplicate it. That was a huge time-saver, because users could repurpose a post, rework text, replace art for weekly posts, etc. Will this feature be added into the new version. I was promised that it would still be available. Also the new version is challenging to get compatible artwork to upload to socials. Thanks, Dan

Hey @DVous,

We're sorry for your experience with the new Express version.

Although this version has many new features, we are aware of a few areas that may require additional attention, and we are actively working to address them. Additionally, I'd like to say that it is not possible to go back to the earlier version of the app.

As for the duplicating feature in scheduler, it is a planned feature and will be there to use in some time. You can find its status here: https://adobeexpress.uservoice.com/forums/951181-adobe-express?query=duplicate and can also use the same link to submit new feature requests directly to the product team. 

We appreciate your feedback and patience.

Thanks,

Amitej

It is really disappointing how horrible the new updated version of Adobe Express is. Please create an option that allows us to use the previous older version before the update. The updated version is so bad.

I agree. I am looking for an alternative to Adobe after using it for years.

Same, this is offically the WORST ap I have ever used....  I wish there was a way to go back to the original Aexpress....    My work flow is officially blown to shreds.

For once, the REVERSE VIDEO option is no longer available.  That is a total disapointemt.

the generative fill feature is AWFUL. i want the design assets and texture library back! you've killed all ability to browse and get inspiration. i'm so sad, this app was so useful and now it's a brick. 

[Abhi.G @ ADBE]

Hi @brittanias 

Could you please share your experience with Generative fill in more detail? If you are unhappy with the results, you can provide feedback by first clicking the '...' button on the results preview, the clicking the Submit feedback button.

 

Design assets are still accessible under the Elements tab.

Of course the question was not answered! I cant stand the new version wont even allow me to copy text previously writin and paste it! Is there another app easier to navigate that you know of? 

[Alexander353531735e03]

i dont like the new version and i would like the old one back. i cant access adobe express on phone or ipad anymore either.

[Andy Lambert]

Hey @Alexander353531735e03 - the new version will be coming to mobile very very soon, stay tuned!

[Adnan32711028xi14]

I second that! The new version has made life really tough!

Are they even aware how difficult it is getting? I feel it's a degrade rather than an upgrade. It's a pain... And Adobe has no solution!! 

[Nancy OShea]

Use the mobile app instead.

The web-based desktop version can't be rolled back, sorry.

"sorry, we destroyed your access to your work, not sorry"

[Saul22601443frm9]

But you cannot get access to the things you create on the web, and vice vesa.

[default1m0ezxi52hgv]

We don't want the new version. We want the old version, with our files and our work. 5 years worth of files are gone?

[rbaezd]

Agree with you I had many pages of my work as a photographer and now I do not see how to make new pages and projects but that mumbo jumbo of social media

[Graham23823972p3me]

Hello @DVous I was able to get on the old version and transfer my files to the desktop version by typing in https://express.adobe.com/sp/projects it should pull up your folders and allow you to export them to the new version in a desktop format. 

[stephenr86493534]

I was creating graphics for T Shirts I sell on Etsy. I have created very few since the change. It sucks! It is not even clear how to save a file and how to remove a background got more complicated - Another example of changes driven by the developers that are not looking at it from the user perspective. Make the users work harder, they look for alternatives to your poor design. Anyone discover an alternative worth exploring, please update here so we can all bail on Adobe together!

[Abhi.G @ ADBE]

Hi @stephenr86493534 

Sorry to hear you are not happy with the new version of Express, but I am confused about some of the specific feedback you've provided.

 > It is not even clear how to save a file

Changes to Express files auto-save, same as in the previous version

> remove a background got more complicated

Remove background continues to be a one-click operation. The functionality can be accessed both outside the editor as well inside it. See screenshots below. If you are looking to further refine the automatic background removal, you can use the Erase tool

In case I've misunderstood your questions, please follow up here or send me a direct message.
