Simple function of moving and grouping layers on Fresco iPad no longer possible.

New Here ,
Oct 22, 2025 Oct 22, 2025

Have been using Adobe Fresco on the iPad for years without a problem. Now experiencing problems moving and grouping layers.

 

With the Layers Panel accessed, I usually tap and hold the layer I want to move and drag it to the desired position in the layer stack. Alternatively, to group, I hold the layer and drag it to the group or layer to be grouped with.

 

This simple and fundamental function no longer works for me. Tapping and holding the layer highlights the layer I want to move but it won't move and just jumps back to it's starting position. Grouping doesn't work either.

 

I have recently updated to iOS26 and wonder if there is an issue here. Is anyone else experiencing this? I have tried re-installing the app but this has made no difference.

 

Frustrating as I can't complete any projects without this core function and will need to find an alternative in the meantime.

I'm on an iPad Pro 11" M4 running iOS 18.6.2, and I can confirm the layer rearranging and grouping still works the same for me.

Hope this helps you find the problem. That's a major issue. 😞

Thanks for your input. I'm running iOS 26.0.1 on iPad Air (3rd generation). I only updated iOS in the past couple of weeks so I suspect this is the cause. The fact that you're still ok on an earlier iOS adds some weight to that theory.

I reinstalled Fresco and opened an older file. Then it worked.
