It used to be super easy to create a great looking collage in Adobe Express. I could select multiple pictures and it would build it. Any size I chose, and let me play with it until I saved it.  I can't seem to do that anymore. HELP PLEASE! 

 

 

    Correct answer Amitej S

    Download indesign and learn how to do it manually. I came to accept that.


    Hey @julyice22, Adobe Express now has a quick action tool as Collage maker. You can upload images directly from devices and select the layout for the collage. Please refer to this help article for details on using the feature: https://adobe.ly/3JulVyN

     

    Hope this helps!

    Best,

    Amitej

    For anyone that has the CC package intuitive easy and quick collages were the one thing that was missing from PS and AI and Express covered that GAP with the Collage function!! for many of us creative professionals, it was the only reason we used express !!!! Such a dumb move to remove it !!!!! It's painful! please bring it back

      Agreed, I've tried the grids and they are terrible to use. Quick and easy collages is literally the only thing I used Express for. Can't believe they took it out.

        I use this for every newsletter at my place of work. 

        So I just spent far too long searching for it!! 

        This needs to be reinstated.

          Totally agree - used collage of photos every day. The one thing that we needed to stay with the new version. And it's gone! Please help soon. 🙂

            Hi there,

            Thank you for chosing Express!

            This feature is currently unavailable but the team is actively engaged in efforts to reinstate it.

            Unfortunately, a specific timeframe for its return cannot be guaranteed at this moment. Your understanding and patience are greatly appreciated.
            Should you have any more questions or need assistance, feel free to ask.

             

            Thanks

            Kanika

              The reply you are wanting to downvote is from August last year. Since then, there have been some updates. You might find some of these posts helpful, even if not fully satisfactory.

              I too cannot find this feature. It is one of the primary ways I use Adobe and saved me a ton of time. It was so efficient. I hope they bring this feature back as soon as possible.

                This is nuts! It was what we primarily subscribe to Adobe for! They need to bring back the simple Express way to create a photo collage from selected, uploaded photos - again with several variation choices!

                  I have the same issue. It's the one feature I used almost everyday. And and from I can tell, as of right now, that feature has been removed.

                    I, too, used that feature all the time. I'm working on family history and
                    it made such beautiful collages. Now it's basically the same as PhotoShop.
                    Sad that they made the change.
