Which apps can I use on iOS?

New to Photoshop and this community, so apologies if this is the wrong place to post and/ or a stupid question.  


I've been trying to work out which iPhone apps my Photoshop subscription gives me access to without additional payment.  Adobe's own information on this is opaque and the AI help assistant is an absolute joke.  As far as I can tell, my subscription gives me access to PS Express, Adobe Fresco and Adobe Scan, but NOT Lightroom or Adobe Acrobat.  If I were to switch to the slightly cheaper 'photograper' subscription, I would retain access to PS Express, gain access to Lightroom but loose Fresco and still not get Acrobat.  Is that all correct? 

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Jane,

    I currently have the Photoshop plan (£21.98/ month).  Although I mostly use Photoshop on my Mac, I am interested in using PS Express and Lightroom on my phone, and possibly Lightroom on my Mac too if I like it on the phone.  If I switch to the 'Photographer' plan, what will I lose by doing so?  I have not been using Photoshop very long, but I do find the capacity to import fonts helpful and it's not clear to me whether that's part of the Creative Cloud that comes with my current Photoshop plan, or whether it would be available using Photoshop in either plan?

     

    It doesn't seem worth it to me to pay for Acrobat Premium, as I have a PDF editor now that allows me to create, annotate, export and rearrange pages in PDFs for free. 

     

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    See details for the plans here. Select "Individuals" from the top nav bar and "photo" from the left nav bar.

    If you download Acrobat Reader for Mobile, ignore any signs about paying. Reader is free.

        Short answer: The ones in the Apple App store.

        https://apps.apple.com/us/developer/adobe-inc/id331646274

         

        Photoshop for iPad comes with a paid Photoshop or Photography Plan subscription.

         

        Free mobile apps for iPhone

        Hope that helps.

          Adding to Nancy's post, the full version of Acrobat is only on desktops. For mobile devices, Adobe has Acrobat Reader for Mobile, which is free. In addition you can get Adobe Acrobat Premium with either a paid subscription in the App Store or included if you have Adobe Acrobat Pro for desktop. If you don't want these premium features, Acrobat Reader for Mobile is free.

           

          Adobe Acrobat Premium

          It provides you access to the following premium features:

          • Create PDF
          • Export PDF Edit PDF
          • Combine files
          • Organize pages
          • Compress a PDF
          • Password-protect PDFs

           

          Can you tell us what your current plan is?
