using photoshop web and zoom in on area of image

Question

I started using photoshop.adobe.com on the web. I have been using the Photoshop desktop app for many years. I need to edit some images I converted to make a coloring book format out of the images.

I do not have a drawing tablet to fine-tune the image edges for a coloring book. I do have a Lenovo tablet on which I can run Photoshop web in a browser. I have mostly everything figured out.

one issue with PS Web. I cannot zoom into an area on an image to get down to pixel leave editing. I can canvas select zoom level. I tried two-fingure pinch images and zooming that way. All I accomplish I to move the image out of layer frame. no any zoom action.

When I first open an image in PS Web. I do get the hand icon to move the image around the screen.

But that never comes back after I select a tool.

Zooming to the pixel level seems to be missing on PS Web. There is no magnifying glass on the toolbar.

Does anyone have suggestions or find a workaround?

If not I guess I will purchase a low-end drawing tablet for my desktop

thanks

I am having this exact same issue. I am using the browser app of Photoshop on an Android tablet and I cannot focus the zoom on a specific area of the image. I also cannot move the image. I can't find the hand tool at all. The move tool does not do what I need in this instance.

I have also been using Photoshop on a desktop for years, and this is my first go with the online version (until the Android app is released). I'm really trying to avoid downloading the full version of Photoshop to my laptop. I don't have a keyboard for my tablet to do the keyboard shortcuts. Such a weird thing to be overlooked.
