[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?

This was fine and dandy when is Adobe going to release the Android version?

[Colin25772625e1eh]

I would also love an answer to this question! We've been out an Adobe sketching app on Andriod for over a year now, and the radio silence is very frustrating.

It's easier said than done. No slight to Android, but the fractured nature of its OS, with devices being all over the place with what version of Android and manufacturers making their own version of Android for their own devices make it ridiculously difficult to develop for Android and not have bugs. And if they did, it might be limited to a very few devices. I get it though. I'd love to see that come out for Android, I want it out to as much devices as possible.

[Colin25772625e1eh]

I appreciate your point and, 5+ years ago, I would have agreed with this sentiment, but even when this was posted in 2019 Google was working to standardize things. With updates to display scaling/background process controls/permissions management and guaranteed updates for years from all major providers, I think it's difficult to support the argument that android fragmentation is the root cause anymore. 

That said, I would be willing to accept that if we had any kind of roadmap or communication at all after years of waiting. At this point, I think it's pretty fair for android users to feel abandoned.

it's the 5th of april 2023... 4 years have passed... android users are still watchin this thread in anger xD
adobe... come on... you caaaan't be seriousssss 

[Corey28139946oze8]

Right?! I truly don't see why they didn't just keep it or keep it with
minimum updates or just not update it.. still no apps that do the same
thing either.

Oh Come on!
Almost 2024 here!

Is Fresco coming to Android? I would like to use it on a Galaxy Note 9, but if it's not going to be possible I prefer not to get my hopes up.

What does this mean, I do not understand

[kglad]

it means you posted in the wrong forum and i moved your post to the correct forum.

[DaveJCummings]

Fresco was never available on Android.  As far as I know, its not being developed for Android at the moment.  I could be totally wrong.

[Apex27218440uwm1]

yeah, maybe so i'm wrong thanks for the answer

[kglad]

hello adobe! I wonder why the fresco program comes first on ios but still not on android. I like this program very much, so I want it to come to Android, I'm sure there are studies on this subject, but until when? Please hurry up I got a new tablet and I just want to make some art.

There are pages and pages of requests on UserVoice for Fresco on Android. Android Tablet users are paying the same cost for a subscription that provides significantly less value. I assume Adobe has done the market research - if the numbers aren't there to justify fairly supporting Android customers, then give us the data so we can understand. Otherwise, give us the software. A little transparency goes a long way.

I have had luck using my Samsung S9+ tablet with Fresco, and being able to draw with Samsung's S pen on the tablet in Fresco.  Samsung has a built in feature on the tablet called "Second Monitor".  This allows me to start up Fresco on my Windows PC, and then using "Second Monitor", the Samsung tablet becomes a third monitor to the two I was already using on my Windows PC.  The catch is you can only use Fresco on the Android tablet when you have the tablet right next to the Windows PC.  The Windows PC I'm using is a laptop, so I could take this on the road, but its not as handy as if Fresco ran natively on the tablet.  This also allows me to use my tablet's pen in Lightroom CC.

When will the Adobe fresco Android application availabile ?

[Sjaani]

If you search through the forum you will notice this has been asked many times.

Adobe staff have indicated that it is being worked on, however they do not give release dates.
