Adobe’s big Creative Cloud update is awesome for photographers

Unless you have a problem with not actually owning the software you pay for, then Adobe Creative Cloud is an excellent cloud-based software suite that allows Adobe to release constant updates and improvements. On top of these regular updates, the company likes to release one super-major update every year, similar to what Apple does with iOS, which adds a bunch of new features as well as improving existing ones, and the company just unveiled what this year’s big update is going to have.

Since we launched Creative Cloud in the spring of 2012, our vision has been to give creative professionals everything they need for their modern, connected creative process. The 2015 release of Creative Cloud delivers on that vision of a creative platform that lets you work seamlessly across desktop and mobile devices—with deep integration between our mobile apps and our desktop apps, a connected assets-based workflow, a vibrant and growing marketplace, and community features built right in. Of course we never hold back on bringing you the latest cool features. This Creative Cloud release includes new Adobe magic and incredible performance boosts to your favorite desktop apps. The companion mobile apps bring that Adobe magic to your devices, and now there are even more ways for you to use the powerful, connected mobile-to-desktop workflows to create your best work. Due to popular demand, we’re adding two new iOS mobile apps to Creative Cloud, and Android support for four of our most popular mobile apps.
