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

[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.

[Abhi.G @ ADBE]

Hi @Fulbio Parodi 

Sorry to hear you are disappointed by the lack of Reverse Video functionality in the new version. Please upvote here to help the team prioritize: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-express-bugs/reverse-tool/idi-p/14572589

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.

I'm really thinking about ending my subscription and asking for a refund. The new interface is horrible and it appears to be made for software engineers. I didn't subscribe to the new version. It's horrible!

[donna_0081]

Totally Agree, if it ain't broke don't try to fix it! You cannot even copy and paste text, it sucks! The "NEW" updated version is 3 steps  back from the original, definitely NOT an Upgrade or Improvement!  I too will be looking for a different app to use, if  anyone knows of a different app that is more like the old adobe app, please share. 

[Abhi.G @ ADBE]

Hi @donna_0081 

Sorry to hear you are not finding the new version of Express usable.

Could you describe the issue you are having with copy and paste of text? Are you trying to copy within Express (same page or from one page to another) or from/to an external source?

Please note that you may need to give paste permission (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254831744) when copying across apps.

Also, there is a second paste button you will need to tap on (see screenshot below)

Hope this helps

Even MS paint. In Windows 11, you can do transparent backgrounds.

[Amitej S]

Hey @Saul22601443frm9, Users can get transparent background images and videos with Adobe Express. 

You can refer to the following articles explaining steps to achieve:

Transparent background-Image:  Remove background from videos

Transparent background-Video: Remove background from images

Let us know if you're looking for something else or need any more info on this!

ANd, I am not talking about that. Someone ask for alternatives. So I just gave them.

[jstonewins@gmail.com]

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!

[donna_0081]

Yes, I just switched to Mematic, simple, love it! This one sucks since the change 

[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.

[default1m0ezxi52hgv]

"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?
