Fresco pricing and availability

I am trying to find out if I am eligible for the premium features of Fresco I have a cc sub for ps and illustrator yet I do not have access to the premium features. All the promos say Fresco is free for cc subscribers but it is not clear what exactly is free. I have tried an online chat with adobe help but they don’t seem capable of answering the simple question of whether I am entitled to premium version or not - if the answer is negative then at least tell me!

Hi Wendy. 

 

This can be quite confusing:

Creative Cloud All Apps Plan: Fresco is a part of this.

Creative Cloud Photoshop Single App Plan: Fresco is a part of this.

Creative Cloud Photography Plan: Fresco is not a part of this plan. 

 

That said, Fresco also has a freemium model; for anyone using it free, these are the things that are not available:

Comic and FX brushes (these are in the default brush sets)

importing Photoshop brushes

high-resolution (PSD or PDF) export 

 

I hope that helps clarify things.

When can we get this on Android? This would be perfect for my Huawei MediaPad.

Hi. That’s clear. Sad to hear that it’s not available for my plan. On the bright side,  the free one is more than capable for my purposes for now. It’s quite ironic that a photoshop only subscriber can have premium Fresco while someone with the same Photoshop + Lightroom cannot have premium Fresco. I guess it’s the assumption that photographers don’t use PS for drawing.

Another possible reason:

 

    CC Photography Plan: Only $9.99/month

    Photoshop CC Single-App Plan: $20.99/month

 

(Note the Single-App plan also offers 100 GB of online storage, vs. 20 GB for Photography.)

Same experience. I think my CC plan. Is called photography plan with PS / LR / etc. Are we really not eligible for premium Fr?
