Hi @default368901179mzcp2 

The new version of Express does not currently support video reversal (neither as a quick action, nor inside the editor).

Please upvote here to help the team prioritize: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-express-bugs/reverse-tool/idi-p/14572589

Thanks,

You have a reverse tool listed as being a feature on Adobe Express, yet you have no guide's on how to actually access it which leaves me to believe you lied on your resume.

Hi @default36914843pcyl8u 

Do you happen to have a link to the page that advertises this functionality?

We'll get it cleaned up to reflect the actual situaion outlined here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-express-bugs/reverse-video/idc-p/14572637#M15978

Thanks

I really need this right now and cannot find any way to reverse the play of a video clip!

[H322755388ayv]

You have it listed as a quick action tool in the information page in the Apple APP store. Still can't find this tool!

funny there is a quick (free) tool via broser but not in rhe app?  I should think is easy to implement in buyed app.

This sucks! I was using it in the old version. It's useful for extending backdrop template videos.

I hope it returns soon 🙂

its now 6/4/2025 and this simple feature still isn't available... cancelling my sub

Hi @Vivacious_soldier3181,

Thanks for reaching out, and I'm sorry for the frustration.

Currently, Adobe Express does not offer a "reverse video" feature under Quick Actions or elsewhere in the app. I completely understand how useful that would be — and you're not alone in requesting it.

If you'd like to suggest this feature directly to our product team, you can do so here:

We really value feedback like yours to help shape future updates. Let me know if you'd like help finding an alternative workflow in the meantime.

Why?

Why take away a primary option?

Would you buy a car without reverse gear?

This was one of the most unintelligent things you guys did... Removing the reverse tool. Now I have to start over using a different program. Thanks for wasting my time! 😡

Hi @Tirzah_joy,

Thank you for your feedback—we understand how disruptive it can be when a key feature like video reverse is removed. While we’ve passed your concern along to the team, in the meantime, here’s a potential workaround:

You can try reversing your clip by duplicating it and manually trimming and reordering frames, or by exporting the original video and using Adobe Premiere Rush, which still offers a reverse function in some workflows.

If you'd like step-by-step help with that, we're happy to guide you through it!

I downloaded Adobe Premier Rush for andriod, but there is no reverse option. So I'm just going to use a different app. 

[ThisIsDNEL]

I can't find it either and I have both IOS and Android. @mahmoud_5524 What are the step by step for reversing the video using premiere rush? 

[mahmoud_5524]

Hi @ThisIsDNEL ,

Thank you for your inquiry. Here are the steps for reversing via Rush: 

1. Select a clip in the timeline

2. Tap Speed Controls (:stopwatch:️)

3. Toggle Reverse Playback ON

4. Adjust speed if needed (50%-200%)

5. Export as normal

Please note: 

Ensure you're running Rush v5.2+ (2025 update)
4K clips may require rendering first
Reset preferences if tools are missing

Please let us know if you still need help.
