Will Adobe XD continue to be free after its out of beta?

[carolkhhon]

I participated in the Adobe XD beta very early on, but now it's out of beta and officially available, will beta testers continue to get the up-to-date program for free? Right now on the website for XD, it is priced like a normal creative cloud subscription, but it would be nice to continue to enjoy the up-to-date program. Hope you can answer my question!

Any CC subscriber gets XD without having to pay extra. Non-CC subscribers would have to keep the last beta I guess, but I don't know when that will time out. I'll ask.

Yes you'll have to pay like any other app, but honestly i'm really disapointed 12€/month for an app which is very basic regarding UX design doesn't worth it ...

I've seen that Invision will launch an new UX app which seems awesome in January.

XD has been a huge improvement in my workflow.  However, the fact that it doesn't work with touch input on the Surface really doesn't make me want to pay for it.  If you're going to make big announcements about Surface integrations, then at least make it so that XD follows through on that promise.  Then you can have my money.

The single app subscription will be about $10. The beta will time out somewhere around the end of the year, so you have until then to decide whether to subscribe.

Hi Colin, I was also testing participant and understood I need to update XD to keep my free version of it but now I have updated and my XD switched to trial mode.. ?

Yes, the updating to keep the beta working was a requirement, but it's not beta anymore. If you had skipped the release update the August beta update would have lasted another couple of months, but it's too late now, with the release version you've started a 7 day trial, and no way to reinstall the beta.
