I've spent hours combing through the community support pages and have yet to see one definitive answer for this simple question. Yet I'm not the only one who has been left utterly frustrated looking for this basic PS tool. And now, I give up... I cannot waste anymore time searching, I just want to know much like the unicorn, does it or doesn't it exist?

can't find the options bar you mention on the iPad version?

Photoshop for iPad does not have an options bar. It also does not have a radial gradient (yet).

On my iPad, I selected the color that I wanted to use, then I selected the fly out from the paint bucket to where I found gradient. I selected that, went back to my canvas, drew an arrow from the top of my canvas to the bottom to indicate the direction of the gradient and voilà! I got my gradient. Hope this helps.

This is just a standard gradient and not a radial gradient

No Radial Gradient Tool

And no settings one of the gradient colors to transparent.

It's bizarre that this basic tool is missing for years.

Yes I thought so as well, in addition to no motion blur. 😔 However, I
thank you for your response.

I'm befuddled why Photoshop iPad lacks so many features (Shapes, Smart Filters/Objects, Sky Replacement, etc) as the product is almost five years old. Photoshop is Adobe's premier product - weird.

I feel your pain. Not the first time I've been disappointed a core feature is simply not available in the iPad version. Easier to accept lack of vignette ... but very frustrating not to be able to work around this with a radial gradient fill. NB desktop users ... as far as I can see there are no gradient type options at the top of the screen. IPad users ... if I'm missing something would love to be enlightened.
