I completley hate this new version. Every file I have migrated thus far has been ruined. Nothig is where it should be, files are missing. The last version was absolutley fine. This is obviously done for the sake of change and not because it was needed or asked for. Several projects lost. If this doesn't revert ot the last version before this current lay out and get my projects back to the way theywere, I WILL just go to Canva or something with a UX that actually works. You literally just made it worse. Layers gone. Text gone. Layers not aliginged and gone, all after migrating to this new junk. Things I had complete months ahead of schedual are now rubbish or I can't edit it I have to update. Layers completley gone!

I just started to rely on AE for work with the old verison and had a filter tool I no longer can find. Can no longer make the reel-covers I used to deliver to the clients and my deadline is tomorrow, paid for this. Thanks Adobe.

I've just cancelled it. It seems they're trying to make it like 'Canva' the reason I liked using adobe express it was easy to use, could toggle the colour match fast and create lots of different options, I can't find this in the new downgrade.... honestly it's taken me 20 mins to make a picture that I'm not happy with and I used to be able to make them in a few minutes for fun and enjoyed the process. Email me if you actually UPGRADE it to the OLD version. The new ones sucks big time and I've just started using it for my business and creative flow. I have no idea what the hell im meant to use now. Genuinely gutted.

There is no way to change the border thickness in the new version. Such a slow and terribly laggy app. Released too early out of beta. Half the feature are literally missing. Pathetic!!!!

Please give us an option to roll back to the old version of Adobe Express! Premiere Pro is unnecessarily complex for creators like me who relied upon Adobe Express for the ease of editing simple videos using a desktop computer. The new app is ridiculous becasue it is geared toward a generation who creates on mobile phones. You have completely alienated those of us who need  a simple video editing program with easy editing controls that plays nicely with the other Adobe apps. This is distressing that you have also done away with all of our files. No notice, no queries about how we would react, no chance to save our projects... you just made me want to look elsewhere for my software and video editing needs.

BRING BACK THE OLD VERSION OF ADOBE EXPRESS! It was the perfect solution for those of us who didn't need Premiere Pro but still wanted a similar functionality, albeit much simpler. Where are our files??? The new app is ridiculously clunky and confusing. I agree with every previous poster who said this has set them back years. We don't want fancy AI, we want a simpler version of Premiere Pro for desktop-driven MP4 file editing.  Not every user is a Gen Z'er who uses their mobile phones to create. Adobe just alienated untold numbers of  mature designers who relied on Adobe Express for publishing and media projects. Give us a path to the old app, I beg of you!!!!

Agree with everything... and am actually explore Canva

Further, My adobe membership use to include adobe express moble, allowing usage of premium features...  No more, Adobe wants to suck more money from us, for a subpar ap

I just logged into the bew version and very much dislike it. I used it for all my ad and flyers and found it so easy and user friendly. This new version is not user friendly and horrible. I did not use canva bc i loved adobe but i may have to start bc this is no longer a quick and easy way to throw together something for my businesses.

I want to cancel my subscription. The new version is too complicated. I can't even find how to create a portrait card or how to access assets  and photographs when trying to design a new card, which I can only do in landscape anyway. I know this is a reply, but couldn't figure out how to post my own question!

OMG this force upgrade is horrible. I'm going to have to find another app to use.! I thought it was me, but I'm glad to see. Unfortunately that's so many others are unsatisfied with this upgrade. They took something that was user-friendly and they could not have made it harder, even if they were trying to do it on purpose.!

I really hate this new version and can't even figure out how to complete simple tasks. I guess it's back to Canva. I really wish I could go back to the older version.
