There is a growing crowd of artists, designers, and photographers (myself included) that work off of the Microsoft Surface line, yet we still don't have a drawing/painting app that compares to Procreate. Then I see previews for Fresco. Finally! A amazing drawing app for....only iPad. Make a version for Windows!!!

    The good news is that at the Microsoft Surface event today they demo'ed a version of Adobe Fresco on a new Windows device!  And I've heard that there is a beta testing group that opened in August.  I would love to participate.

      I just saw that, as well. I would love to beta test a Windows version on my Surface Book, if it's available. It looks like it might be just what I'm looking for and only just upgraded to a Surface Book 2, from a Surface Pro 2 and would really not like to have to shell out on an iPad.

      I still use one of my old Surface Pro's with Freshpaint, of all things, along with a few 3rd party apps to do Fresco-like things.

      Hi ryand49260218, 

       

      We're listening. You are right, we've been getting a lot of feedback about developing Fresco for Windows. I'll pass on your feedback to our engineers here so that we can develop the app for other platforms and devices as well. Thanks for appreciating Fresco as an app. 

      Stay tuned for more updates!

       

      Regards,

      Sheena

        I've heard about the later release for the Surface, but I'm confused as to whether this means it will be exclusively for Surface or for any Windows 10 device. Will I be able to use this on my Cintiq or any other desktop tablet that runs Windows 10? I also teach at a college that runs on iMacs with Cintiq tablets, but we don't have iPads for all students; Will this be available on iMacs as well as tablets?

        Hi jordans87348995, we're definitely working on developing the app for other platforms and devices. Please stay tuned for more details!
