Photoshop Express App receives Two Ratings: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific for Most Folks. ⭐⭐⭐ Just Average for the Pro Users. Its surprising that Adobe produces an iPad photo-editing App, that relatively speaking, is missing that Robust Adobe Tool Set. I can understand that simplification is good for the iPone users; however, for the iPad, which has more speed, more memory, more display real-estate, the App is missing too much for me. However, for NOISE REDUCTION, Photoshop Express is the BEST of the all the Apps I’ve tested
Photogene4 is the Photo-Editing App that has ALL the “Bells &Whistles” that Photoshop users are used to. PS Express even with its “major improvement” missed the boat again. Reminder, for those that are not Image Editing Manics, PS Express may be just what you’ve been wanting. For someone that was brought-up on Photoshop on the PS and MAC, its a huge disappointment.
ADOBE® PHOTOSHOP® EXPRESS: This software App is written for the iPad, and the iPhone, both permits the use of simple "gestures" to quickly edit and share photos from your iPad mobile device. With Photoshop Express, it’s easy to improve your photos. Choose from a variety of one-touch effects, or simply drag your finger across the screen to crop, rotate, or adjust color.

Hard part of this writing. As teaching pro and adjunct faculty for 13 years at FAU, a 30,000 student a Florida State University, teaching "Principles of Digital Photogrphy and Post Image Processing," authored a book of the same title, teaching his topic at FAU for over a decade; The core content of this class is PHOTOSHOP editing techniques, a PC/MAC based computer-lab course. One would think, when Adobe published an App for the iPad, it would be a "screaming package" of image editing capabilities… After all Adobe "invented" the World’s Standard for Image Editing.

Not so, for PS Express. Perhaps I know too much about the PC/MAC versions of Photoshop for 15 years. This App does not even have the LEVELS nor the CURVES graphic editing tools; No Cloan Stamp tool; no SKEW tool, no Image Size tool, no Canvas Size tool, no Dodging, no Burning, the list goes on, what this App does not have. I remain shocked with what Adobe left out of this App. Apparently Adobe is really happy with itself, with their goofie "gestures" which is a terribly inaccurate method of applying an image edit. Adobe needs to get with the program; Apple is selling some 80 million iPads a year, and less than 10% of that is in the PC/MAC universe. The iPad is where the folks are going; however, Adobe missed the boat.
PS Express, yes, we use it, but only for a few tools, (when I need a really strong noice reduction, quick image Straightening and Cropping; otherwise, I am headed over to Photogene’s App for the serious image editing, a true ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rated $3 App for sure.
Hopefully, Adobe will "get with the program" fire the iPad App management, and deliver a top level product, regardless of price.
