Photoshop Touch 1.6 update requires smoothing.

HI all,
I have been a user of Photoshop Touch since the start and have got every update as they have become available.
The new 1.6 (1.2 for phones) update looks to be an awesome update to the excellent app.
However after using now for a couple of days I am starting to see that it does have its bugs.
This may sound like a big long moan, but its not. I still think that the update is excellent and the app in general the app is very very good an used everyday, but feel that some items in the update do need addressing.
The Brush Engine
The new enhancements to the brush I believe are excellent, and what was needed. Although I find that after the update the Hardness slider does not really do much. You can have it on 1% or 100% and you only get a little bit of softness unlike before when you could see a true difference between a soft brush and a hard brush.
I also feel that the spacing slider does not work correctly. Once you have altered the spacing when you make a stoke I find that the start of the brush seems clustered, before the spacing kicks in.
Quick Selection tool
In general (and my own opinion) there was already many different methods of selecting inside Photoshop Touch, so the Quick Selection tool was not really needed. However I have tried the new tool out  and found that it doesn't work.
When you paint on a object to select it, it does not paint, so you don't know what your selecting. You can alter brush settings, but what is the point when you can't see what your selecting. Very disappointing. This could be a good tool if it worked correctly.
On the whole the update is good with some nice ideas although a bit of smoothing need I think (1.6.1???).
I have read that other users are having other problems with syncing, exporting and even installing ( I'm using a Note 10.1 2014 edition, and so far fingers crossed have not had these problems)so I believe  a bug fix may be needed.

The brush hardness slider not affecting much is a known issue.
It does seem kind of weird that the Quick Selection Tool doesn't show a selection as you're painting like it does in desktop Photoshop. Might have been a design hurdle they had to address. It at least shows the cursor.

  • Photoshop Touch update for Galaxy Note 10.1

    Photoshop Touch came installed on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 at purchase. Is there a way to update this app as updates become available, or do I have to purchase the app from the Android market in order to recieve updates?

    I had issues updating the app too.  It's a little annoying to update the first time.  Here's what I did:
    1)  Close your Photoshop Touch app.
    2)  Find the app that is called something like Samsung apps.  It will run and then the app will disappear from your app list.
    3)  If it's already not there or once you complete step 2, find the app called GALAXY Apps and open it.  This might require an update too.
    4)  Do a search for Photoshop.  You'll get a bunch of options there.  Be careful to not choose the app that you have to purchase.  Find the photoshop app that requires an update.  You may have to sign up for a Samsung account to update it.
    That's it, you should be able to connect after that!  Hope this helps.

    on ipad 3 and mini cannot locate photos in My Photostream folder.  Will this be fixed?

    All folders can be browsed except for My Photostream which did work prior to IOS8.  When IOS8 first came out, My Photostream has bern discontinued but with further update in 8.1, it was reinstated.  Photoshop Touch  no longer shows photos, only blank boxes, in that folder.

  • *Requires separate purchase of Photoshop Touch for tablet????

    The app on Google Play states the following:
    "*Requires separate purchase of Photoshop Touch for tablet."
    1. Does this mean I also have to purchase Photoshop Touch for tablet to use this on my Note2?
    2. OR is this just poorly worded, and it means you have to purchase it separately if you want to use it on a tablet?
    Thanks.

    You have to purchase the app separately if you want to use it on a tablet. The "Photoshop Touch for phone" would be the correct one for the Note2

    Thanks Laparra!! Thanks to your original comment again-- at least now I know if I need a "work-around" I now know at-least-that-the original-fonts in PS TOUCH seem to work. No wonder the default-font worked.. but not the NEW COPPERPLATE FONT.. YaY, mystery solved.. (almost)!   [i wished they'd change that default-font..and get a new default font...Lol.. It's pretty homely looking..Hee.) I normally have been using that original TRAJAN PRO FONT.. but the letter "J" almost looks like a straight line vs a rounded J.. which at least the new COPPERPLATE FONT (which is a more normal usable font--That's not boring like aerial is,etc... ]. So yeah that will be great when all those new fonts gets fixed! // It would be great too (on my PS TOUCH wishlist, if someday they could fix the TEXT BOX too.. to be able to better & easily add A LOT [more] TEXT on a graphic .. as I always have to go to the "OVER APP" [That's the name of the app in the APPLE store] on my iPad to do that... PS TOUCH only seems to let you do TITLES vs a more lengthy text on a project. If I want to make an EASY border I take the image I've been working on into the CAMERA+.Plus App.. Simple..[but I know it can lose its resolution]. Sorry so long!! Venting haha!! Will plan to keep an eye on this post & let you all know & visa versa! LORD BLESS!!

    my ipod touch 1st gen keeps on saying when i come to download an app it says update required this app requires ios 4.3 please help

    Sorry, but there is nothing you can do other than buy a newer iPod. A 1st-generation iPod touch cannot run any version of iOS later than 3.1.3 and hence cannot run any app that requires a newer version.

  • Photoshop Touch- Update?

    Auf meinem  Samsung Galaxy 10.1 war Photoshop Touch in der Version 1.4.2 vorinstalliert. Im Google Play Shop ist derzeit die Version 1.7.5 verfügbar. Muss ich das kaufen oder gibt es eine andere Möglichkeit zum Update? Falls ich das kaufen muß, lohnt sich das Update?

    The Samsung App Store's apps are a little different than that of their Google Play counterparts. (If I remember, certain Galaxy tablet owners got PS Touch for free as well.) Like Amazon's app store, they're usually a little behind.
    In any case, I could have sworn they were higher in version number than 1.4.2. Did you go into the Samsung store app to find out if there are any updates?

  • Photoshop touch is way overdue for updates

    First update in a long time and they disable auto-sync?  Photoshop touch is way over due for an update. It doesn't even support any stylus that have been released in about the last two years. I would like to see a major update that allows you to send a file to the desktop apps and more features such as masks.

    1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

    It's not just iTunes you need to update...
    You need to upgrade to Leopard v10.5.8 at the very least in order to sync, restore, and backup an iPod touch.
    See iPod touch system requirements here.
    Leopard is available from Amazon here.

    Hi,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues. Which tablet is it exactly that you are using?
    Which Android version do you have on it?
    It would be good if you could give us a screen shot of what you are seeing.
    Would it be possible for you to share the file that you cannot open?
    You could send it to me privately.
    Could you also please let us know what you were doing before the file got corrupted?
    From which version did you upgrade by the way?
    Thanks,
    Ignacio

  • When will Photoshop Touch be updated to support the new iPad (3)?

    Since the screen is now greater than HD and the camera has just been enhanced to 5 MP, PS Touch should be updated to support pictures larger than 1600 x 1600 as quickly as possible as well as adding direct support for the Retina screen. Otherwise it will look fuzzy and seem underpowered for the device going forward. Any estimate on what date this much-needed update will be released?

    Hi Plossi,
    I don't have an iPad3 myself but I have heard from others that PS Touch looks and runs great on it. Adobe will continue to release updates to PS Touch to make the app better and take advantage of the latest hardware (including iPad3). It's not possible to provide dates around any future releases though. Larger image support is a very common request. Please add your vote here is you haven't already.

  • How can you get Adobe Photoshop Touch to open on an Android 4.1 Jellybean RCA Tablet

    I am trying to help a friend of mine.  Silverday posted " I successfully purchased, downloaded Photoshop touch on my android jellybean 4.1 RCA tablet, but it freezes every time at the start up screen! How do I fix this so I can actually use Photoshop? I have tried un/installing, force stop, turning on and off my tablet....nothing seems to be working! My android fits the requirements, so why isn't this working?!"  Has anybody run across this situation.  I am very computer literate but am not familiar with the Photoshop Touch app.   Thanks...

    How much storage do you have left on that 64GB SSD? 4GB ram is fairly comfortable (if you're doing absolutely nothing else) while using Flash. The paired down tablet specs are most certainly crimping the performance.
    You have to know apps like Photoshop may let you brush but the application is primarily a bitmap engine which operates at memory speed and certainly has no overhead from being a multimedia, scriptable IDE. As you pile up dozens of layers, especially with vectors and filters, Photoshop will also start to lag just the same.
    You have to keep in mind, you really have a tablet. The i5 1.6GHz is not a normal i5, it's a mobile i5 product. I have an i5 quad also (2500k), but the desktop model (Sandy/Ivy) runs at 3.7GHz in turbo, and that's an old model (Sandy). Also the desktop i5 has Intel HD4000 graphics which is extremely slow (outside simple video playback) and your i5 is even slower, only Intel HD3000 graphics. Clearly there's a big difference and you should expect tablet performance. 
    Just about the only thing you can do to increase performance, especially in a vector heavy app, is reduce any other things going on. Slim out your OS as best you can, removing any unnecessary apps or services running. Update all your drivers and if you're not using WHQL drivers for the HD3000 on your display driver you should revert back to Win7 for fully supported drivers (which is the version of Windows I think the Slate originally came with). Unless something is corrupt or no WHQL driver support exists for HD3000, I don't see what else it can be besides perhaps no WHQL support for your input driver either. 
    I'm on a 5 year old Dell touchscreen laptop at a higher resolution (1600x900) running an old i7 @ 1.6GHz quad (similar to yours) with 4GB DDR2 (slower) and Flash runs perfectly fine. Although I'm not running Intel HD graphics. I'm running it on a discreet ATI Mobility Radeon HD.
