Will generative fill remain included in the PS/LR ecosystem without added costs, if you are only subscribed to the Photo Plan ?

I do really appreciate the new generative fill command and use it mainly to erase distracting objects and fill borders after using the upright or other geometric commands. I don't want to generate new things, just to improve my photos.

Hi @rrr_hhh this page explains the upcoming cost increases to Creative Cloud apps:

Thank you for the link... although Adobe has managed to make it rather confusing : after a long long read, I'm still not clear about what will hapen with my subscription. My country is included in the list of countries where the price will change. But apparently the Photo Plan I have is not included in the changes. So what does that mean in the end ? will I loose the generative fill in PS ? will I have to pay an ammount for each time I'm using generative fill once the 25 limits is reached ? I'm often using several generative fills for one images, since uprighting photo and filling the missing borders requires often at least two if not more generative fills. I could use content aware fill instead (what I was doing before, or crop more) but the results are often better with generative fill.

Update : I just checked my account and my subscription Plan; yes the price will remain the same when I renew in february 2024. However it is still not clear for me what will succeed with the new generative fill commands after the situation of the newly "featured applications" aka Firefly changes. What is exactly a featured applications ? Is that equivalent to a free trial for one or X months ?

Generative fill is included in all plans and PS versions. You will receive credits each month depending on your plan and once you use the credits, you will be able to still use GF but at a lower/slower tier.

Thank you ! Things are a little clearer now. It seems that with the Photography Plan (PS + LR and 20 storage) I will have right to 100 generative fill in one month. That translate into about 3 generative fill a day.. it's not very much, since for each picture you may have activate generative fill several times (if you wants more variants or if you have several borders to fix. Well, we will see how things go after the first november, in less than two weeks.
