[Feature Request] Adobe Fresco for Android

[prubini87]

Hello,

Is Adobe Fresco coming to Android? If it is, are there any release dates yet or perhaps even a beta tester program?

[Renamed by Mod]

[DaveJCummings]

Huh?it's out for more than iPad. It's out for some Windows devices. I get it, it's frustrating, but more devices will become compatible as they continue to develop. They want to make sure devices can handle it properly before releasing it 

[Jim157F]

They have clearly not made any effort to develop for Android or we would have heard about it by now. last we heard was "we're working on developing the app for other platforms and devices" almost 16 months ago. They should just come out and announce they they do not intend to release on android if they don't want people ridiculing their lack of response and progress.

Sadly ps and illustrator are discontinued so I think we will never have on android there's no answer I know all is happening but not that discrimination 😠

[Gunther5D2B]

I was actually talking to their customer support about this. While they did confirm that there has been no change to its status for over a year, they did confirm a beta/android version in development.  Whether this is true, or I was lied to remains to be seen, but they have officially stated that an android version will be released.... in the future... at some point... ya...

Personally, I think I may be done waiting, Huion Sketch seemed to work a lot better than adobe sketch anyway, despite constantly crashing and currupting itself (still easier to save and recover files when using an android then adobe). If you only use apple mobile devices (but use a windows computer) then fresco and the adobe suit would probably be convienent. But I guess if you like using a macbook or an android tablet you're outa luck. 

[defaultq7awrcuw11pa]

Thanks for that tip! I went and downloaded Huion Sketch on all of my
Android devices.

[TeryndiKitzu]

That should have been done before "retiring" Adobe draw and photoshop sketch, unless you're trying to loose customers

[Vinnyvango]

Android users have been waiting for an answer for more than a year. Please bring these adobe products to Android, apple users have so many other options

[DaveJCummings]

Just be patient.  They just added it for more Windows devices not too long ago.  More devices are always getting developed for it,  and I'm pretty sure that Android devices are probably on their roadmap

[Debora5EFA]

Yeah because I want a nice app for my expensive Samsung tablet  I hope that will be come one day just keep waiting 😔

Jun 5th, 2021, still not news about an Android app. To be honest, I need it more in android than in windows!

[Debora5EFA]

O u need we need I really like this app almost 2 years that's impossible 😖

The community guidelines call for "Kindness and Respect," but your comments are egalitarian and dismissive to everyone who is already being put off by Adobe. 

Why do you keep posting? You obviously do not care if there is any support for Android. And unless you have some concrete information or evidence that there is work being done, you are doing nothing more than placating a poor put-upon corporation who has turned its back on its users. Whats your purpose here? Why dont you troll the iOS forums instead? Are you simply going for maximum exposure as an Enormous Majority of users are Android?

You're "pretty sure" that Android devices are "probably" on their "roadmap?"

Well, with all due kindness and respect, I am absolutely certain that that is a meaningless statement with weak qualifiers and no actual information to back it up and has no reason to exist in this forum. Perhaps if you stopped speaking, someone who knew something would fill the space with something meaningful, if not useful.

8 March 2023.  Still not available  on android. 

[bridget_3975]

Freaking 2024 no android 😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡😡🤬😡😡

[Josh11770]

So, let's get this straight here. You (Adobe), are killing off Adobe draw and Adobe Sketch across all platforms. Telling users to switch to Fresco, but you aren't currently putting it on Android? Where's the sense in that?  Am I missing something here? 

[relik01]

They have marked this "Solved" so chances are, no one from Adobe is looking. 

I got the e-mail this morning as well.

Some of us are professionals who rely on professional tools.

I have been an Adobe customer since 1988. I have invested significant money on updates year after year.

I do not use Apple products. I do not find them to be superior for my use, and I do not choose to pay a higher price and purchase multiple separate devices simply to proclaim my status in the "hip" community. 

I can understand that in the early days of the SaaS program at Adobe there was an Apple forward tendency due to long association with that platform.

However, the statistical reality is there are more Android and Windows users in the wide world than there are MacOS and IOS. At very least parallel development would be considered the professional business solution. 

Adobe has lost it's way at a very fundamental level and I am not sure how much longer I can continue to spend money on their product, even when I have a significant amount of assets that are built on their product. 

[Josh11770]

I personally moved all my Adobe sketch and draw files to autodesk sketchbook.

[Josh11770]

I didn't even notice the topic is from 2019 apologies for the necro but I had assumed any topic about Fresco on android would have been new, concerning the recent email announcement regarding the discontinuation of support for draw and sketch. 

[Goodman's Creative Media]

Agree, I smell a subscription getting cancelled. If you ain't apple, Adobe treat you second class. Quark Express will be happy anyway and whatever drawing package I chose to use instead. I run Android Stylus phones and tablets. I guess you (Adobe) no longer want my money!

[Jim157F]

It should say "1 False Answer" after Adobe's reply. There's no credibility in any of Adobe's replies on the topic of Android development. 

[Allison5CC1]

I also want one! I just got the notification and I'm literally in tears because draw is the only drawing app I have liked on my s21 ultra and it's friggen nasty they would take it away and offer no alternative to a Huge part of the digital market. Adobe, you had better make this right or you're about to lose a customer of 25+ years, and probably many many many more! 😭😭😭 (also, if anyone has any suggestions for non Adobe alternatives that are comparable, please let me know. I have not been able to find one I liked. 💔) 

[EliseSomething]

We have a dream....

[defaultp8e9yt9fuhax]

it is very sad that this is not availa le for android. we need this as well. why are you discriminating android users? 

[bridget_3975]

No they just stupid

[Alejandro Trejo]

It should definitely be available for is eligible for android devices specifically at the same time as IOS yet time is IOS if the android devices like Samsung notes that come with a stylus I less because I use Adobe illustrator draw specifically on a daily basis and now that it's going to end and I don't have an IOS Apple device that completely takes away from my business!!
