End of Life for Premiere Rush

[pseldes]

Seeing that Adobe is killing off Rush is a bad decision unless Premiere Pro embraces many of those light features.
A lightweight, fast, east video tool has been an important part of our business. We can get stuff out easily and quickly then later finetune it for a more robust version.

Plus...not all of us are iPhone users.

I'd love to see what Adobe's plan is to support the features and functions many of us have come to count on!

This is a very poor decision by Adobe. I love Rush. It's lightweight and also powerful. I won't use Premiere Pro, for me it is over the top powerful and its interface is insane. It's like going from Lightroom to Photoshop.

They are bringing out Premiere for iPhone. Yes, I am an iPhone user. But I connect my 15-inch MacBook to a 34-inch screen. Adobe is having a laugh expecting me to look at my tiny 6.1-inch screen to edit my videos.

I'm not doing that. 

I wonder if they considered accessibility when they made this decision.

I read with sadness that Premiere Rush will be discontinued in September 2026.

Adobe will be moving to Premiere on iPhone?

Are you kidding me?

I use Rush on my MacBook, and now I will be forced to use the alternative on a significantly smaller screen.

How will that help me with my productivity whilst editing videos?

I have used Premiere Rush on my iPhone 13 Pro, the user experience is terrible. It takes ages to edit using the iPhone app.

The other alternative for desktop? Premiere Pro.

Adobe, you really are having a joke when you say this, yes?

The industry standard video editing software that is an absolute powerhouse piece of kit that requires an insane learning curve to master. Ever heard of the term 'use a sledgehammer to dispatch an ant'?

This is how I describe what I need out of a video editing software when I think of Premiere Pro for editing my videos.

This is why I love Rush. It's easy to use, it's quick, and efficient and gets the job done. 

I will not be using Premiere Pro, I will certainly not use your new iPhone offering. I wonder, did you consider accessibility when you made this decision? Eventually, you will be forcing me onto my iPhone to use your new product, Premiere. 

I edit using a 34-inch screen. When on the train or out and about, I'm on my 15-inch MacBook Pro, which is as small as I go.

I will not use my tiny iPhone screen to edit video, and I will not use Premiere Pro. It's far too confusing.

Before anyone flames me, I do not care what you think. I'm a paying customer, I'm allowed to vent. This is a poor decision.

I agree ..... I want a lightweight video editing programme for use on a Windows PC ..... I subscribe to the Adobe Photography Plan, as I'm primarily a stills photographer, but want the capability to edit occasional videos. I dont want to pay a significant sum for occasional use, and dont want to edit on a tiny iPhone screen ...... I use a 30" screen

Same as the other reply. I am a PC user who shoots mainly still photography but rely on Premiere Rush for rendering video. I do not use an iPhone and cannot afford to move to Pro.

This appears to be quite a mean decision on Adobes part freezing out any subscribers who are not Mac users or have large pockets.

We understand that Rush's end of life is impacting Rush users significantly and some users may not be as fond to use Premiere Pro. In the Premiere Pro workspace options, we have 2 workspaces for Rush users called Essentials and Starter to may things less daunting. We have training on www.adobevideotraining.com and here from Valentina Vee to help clear up any confusing functions and operations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48Fn-PQILIY

This reply ignores every point made. I said I do not need Pro and cannot afford the extra money, your reply was 'but there are training videos'.

the idea that Premiere Pro in any way replaces Rush is ridiculous and out of steop with their users. I am a Pro user for larger video projects. But for quick, social media videos, you cannot beat Rush.  Unless those effects, titles, etc are added to a version of Pro it is not a replacement. Eliminating the "light" video editor forces users to either pay for more than they want/need or just look elsewhere for alternatives.
