Adobe Express: Graphic Design

Removing the free stock uses right before the holidays is such a mean grinch move! Ugh!!! Post was my go-to app for quick social marketing, and now what am I getting for the price? I'm feeling very frustrated and disappointed. Edit: I still have hope that Adobe will add a drop shadow to the Remove Background option, which would make this app a five-star rating for me. Each upgrade keeps getting better and better. I find myself using Spark often for quick editing on my phone. The remove background feature works really well, except for objects with white near the corners, where it tends to grab too much of the object. However, it works great on other colors. Being able to add or keep shadows with the remove background option would make this app nearly perfect!

Yes, I enjoy this app enough to dedicate my personal time and write a review about it! It's definitely worth it. Most things "Adobe" are. (Except that terrible camera app.) This app is incredibly user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy to learn as you go. There's no need for tutorials or classes to get started on your projects. It's like a superpower-packed mini version of their overwhelming and difficult-to-navigate regular apps. It offers enough features to create amazing stuff without being overly confusing or off-putting. I simply dived right in and had a blast exploring my creativity. The flyer I made turned out unbelievably perfect, and it didn't take forever to achieve that. The commands for adding every little detail and element are very obvious and extremely difficult to mess up. Plus, there's the beloved "back button" to undo any mistakes. Overall, it's a fun and useful app! I've used it to make slides for presentations, create flyers, and design posts for Instagram and Facebook. It even provides preset canvas sizes for each platform, so there's no need for guessing or research. Alright, enough of this—I should be getting paid for this! Haha. Seriously, give it a try! It's a dream.

I downloaded this app without any prior experience or expertise in using other photo/video software, except for the basic tools available on social media apps for posting videos. I was getting frustrated with the limited options for layering and layout when I wanted to combine a photo or GIF with a larger video and a background. I was hoping this app would solve that problem, and luckily, it does and much more than I ever imagined possible. After spending a couple of hours playing around with it, as the app encourages you to do, I was able to create my first video. The app provides helpful tutorials on almost anything you can imagine, including the ability to add your own fonts and stickers/graphics from outside the app. To my surprise, I didn't even need to save my video and later add a GIF from Tenor using the Facebook option, because the app already had that feature built-in. It includes every GIF available on Tenor, including sticker-type GIFs. Essentially, it integrates all the features I could have found on Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat, but with an exponentially larger selection to choose from. My first video received over 5000 views, and if you're a creative perfectionist, this app will save you countless hours of frustration. I haven't even discovered all the features yet, but for social media video posts, it's truly invaluable. It seems like they've thought of and included everything!
