A basic version of the full photo editing app will be free to all users. The free edition is currently being tested in Canada, where users can access it from a web address if they have a free Adobe account. The stripped-down version of the popular photo editor will allow more users to access the core features. It was supposed to be a tool for artists to share an image with others so they could make small edits. The ability to create a new document from the web has been added by Adobe. Adobe is trying to widen its net by giving everyday consumers access to a simplified version of its app. People will be able to upgrade to a subscription if it goes to plan, as they will get a taste of what can be done in the program. Adobe has added several tools since launching the web app last year.
Bringing it to less capable systems is one way to expand the user base of the program. There are drawbacks to using a Chrome OS-based laptop over a Windows system. Everyone can use a web version of the program, including millions of students.
Maria Yap, VP of digital imagery at Adobe, wants to meet users where they are currently. You don't have to have a high-end machine in order to use the program.
The industry standard for photo editing is called "Photoshop", but it is also an expensive tool. Several people rely on free photo editing software to save money. The one-time price of $55 makes it impossible for me to add another subscription to my card.
When the web-based version ofPhotoshop would be made available to a wider audience is not yet known. The first hit out for free is what the company knows.
