Adobe rolls out Photoshop Express 1.5 for iOS devices

Adobe today announced the immediate availability of Adobe Photoshop Express 1.5 software for iOS devices. Designed for iOS 4.2, Photoshop Express 1.5 introduces significant improvements to the photo capture and editing experience, including:

New camera workflow: Photoshop Express 1.5 debuts a fast new camera workflow that enables continuous, rapid photo-taking directly in the app. Customers can quickly capture and review multiple shots—even those hard-to-get action shots—and hand them off seamlessly to the Photoshop Express editor for cropping, adjustments and effects (designed for iPhone and iPod Touch models with built-in cameras).

Full Retina display support on iPhone 4 and iPod Touch models: Photos look smooth and sharp, and the app screen looks crisp and clear, thanks to full support for Retina display in Photoshop Express 1.5.

Multi-tasking support: With new support for multi-tasking in iOS 4.2, Photoshop Express 1.5 remembers where customers leave off when they switch to another app and then switch back to Photoshop Express. That means customers can pay attention to email, news, games and other activities on their iOS device and then jump right back into viewing or editing a photo without having to start over.

Improved photo uploading: One of the benefits of multi-tasking support is a better photo uploading experience. Now customers can queue and continue uploading photos to Photoshop.com or Facebook in the background while switching between Photoshop Express 1.5 and other apps.

“Photoshop Express 1.5 is an incredibly useful release for anyone doing photo capture and editing on iOS devices,” says Matt Domenici, director of product management for mobile imaging at Adobe. “Our millions of iOS-based users will be delighted by their new ability to capture the right shots more easily, view beautifully smooth versions on-screen, and edit them even while switching back and forth with other apps, picking up right where they left off.”
