I would buy the latest Ipad 13" pro to use with Photoshop if only there were grids and rulers available but without those tools it would be of no real use for me.

No need to wait for Apple to come up with PS killer app. Emerging all over the web, AI tools will push Photoshop into oblivion. Adobe know it, and try to save the boat, so a puny little thing like a ruler in 2023 iPad PS would need one Adobe engineer to be involved. Unfortunately for us, simple users, they require all hands on board to keep up with turning AI winds.

I thought this is a joke that iPad PS 2023 have no ruller... Hopefully one day Apple will make better version of PS like they have done with Premiere Pro and now FCPX is killing Premiere in performance.

It's been 4 or 5 years, people ask for this basic feature. I wonder if we need to wait the next 5 years for it. I know I sound sarcastic but really, on Adobe side looks like nobody listen or care. Adobe motto  “minimum effort, maximum income”? Adobe is happy. Artistes, a bit less.

Please add rulers & grids on the iPad. It feels very inefficient working without them. Thanks!

I couldn't agree more. I gave up my laptop and transferred over to iPad because I was under the impression Photoshop for IPad was the same as the laptop version. Well by the time I realized it wasn't... I couldn't go switch it out. So now I'm searching for new apps that will be able to take its place. I've been using Photoshop since CS5 and now I have to learn a completely new system. 

ADOBE DO BETTER !

We are 29th of March 2023. I just tried Photoshop iPad version again. IT SHOULD be called Photoshop VeryLite, to be gentle and not to call it its real name. 

Guidelines, rulers, smart rulers, snapping… and so much more is just not there since years.

 

We are in 2023, almost April, soon mid 2023. At this time, for example, Affinity Photo for iPad has it all pro features. Why should we bother with Photoshop and WAIT YEARS for basic, not talking pro features? Affinity photo costs 23,99 one time payment, while Photoshop is 10,99 monthly. Comparing both, I cannot understand why Adobe left their iPad app versions so far behind others.

 

So Adobe, what's your idea for a professional iPad app? Again, Why is Photoshop so far behind your competitors like Affinity? Photoshop iPad seams to be kind of a joke, it's so poorly equipped with feature from Photoshop desktop. And it looks like you, Adobe, make this purposefully. Why?

 

On my side, I do not think it is worth to have Photoshop (April 2023) even it was free of any charge. It is so basic that it may serve for primary school kids, but professionals should avoid it a find real serious proposition elsewhere.

Lisa,

 

The Upvote button is at the top of the page. It will change from "Upvote" to "Voted" after you vote.

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT (Nov 2023): the Upvote button is now on the left instead of right and now turns blue instead of saying "voted" after you vote.
