Adobe Photoshop Touch for Android

Adobe Touch Apps icons android iOSAdobe today released their highly anticipated Touch Apps for Android Honeycomb tablets. There are six applications at this time in the Adobe Touch Apps family Adobe Photoshop Touch, Adobe Collage, Adobe Debut, Adobe Kuler, Adobe Proto, and Adobe Ideas. Each of the applications are being offered for $9.99 in the Android Market today (links to the Android Market are included with each application name just listed).
The only application from the Adobe Touch Apps
suite that’s available at this time for iOS users, and by extension iPad users, is Adobe Ideas and it’s being sold for $5.99 in the App Store now.
Adobe had originally unveiled all of the details for these Touch Apps back in October, we talked mostly about the Adobe Photoshop Touch application then. However each piece of software is good in its own right and offers some desktop-like functionality for tablets and their touchscreens.
Here are the main details for each particular application:
Adobe Photoshop Touch Android screenshotAdobe Photoshop Touch – This application offers desktop-like Photoshop, but with a new touch-friendly interface. Adobe has included desktop Photoshop features like layers, selection tools (Scribble Selection), color adjustments, and filters to the Touch app. With the Touch app you can pull images from Google Image Search, your tablets internal storage (or SD card storage), and from Adobe Creative Cloud. You can share finished images with friends on Facebook or you can just sync your finished images with your Adobe Creative Cloud account. Max image resolution is 1600 x 1600 pixels for the Photoshop Touch app.

Adobe Collage – The Collage software let’s you create ‘moodboards’ which is basically a collage board where you can add any images, drawings and text you wish. The Collage app allows you to import files that are saved in either PDF, PSD, and AI formats. You can also pull images from Google or Flickr with the application. When you are editing your collage or moodboard, if you wish, you can use a variety of pens for drawing a variety of fonts for text input. You can sync everything with your Adobe Creative Cloud account with the Collage app too.
Adobe Debut – This piece of software allows you to show-off all your creations that are stored in your Creative Cloud account to others. Adobe Debut offers support for Adobe Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator files, and the app can open PDF, JPEG, PNG, and GIF files directly. With your Photoshop and Illustrator files the Debut app allows you to import files that have multiple layers. Once you have a file open you’re free to make sketches on your work using a built-in pen tool. For your convenience the Debut app does feature a quick ‘view at original size’ option for displaying creations.
Adobe Kuler – The Kuler app lets your create 5-color themes using color data from images. Adobe says this app will be good for designers and artists that like to look for color inspiration in images. You can find images using Google or Flickr within the application, and you can also browse through the themes that are inside the Kuler community (Adobe says there are thousands of themes in the community). The supported color models include  HSB, RGB, CMYK, LAB, and HEX. All your color themes can be exported to your Adobe Creative Cloud account for future editing in desktop Adobe Creative Suite applications or other Adobe Touch Apps.
Adobe Proto – The Proto app lets you create wireframes or layouts, if you please, for websites and mobile apps. According to Adobe the Proto app lets you create wireframes using CSS grid systems, and the app allows you to leverage WebKit preview and jQuery support too. All your wireframes can be uploaded to Adobe Creative Cloud using the app for future editing on a desktop or to share with others (colleagues and such).
Adobe Ideas Android screenshotAdobe Ideas – The Ideas app is a very simple to use digital sketchpad app for creating vector drawings on-the-go. The Ideas app is the only Touch App that’s available today for both Android and iOS devices, and it does function the same on either platform (the UI design is a bit different though). You can use the Ideas app to access files stored on your Adobe Creative Cloud account but you must choose a tablet-compatible image file if you hope to be able to edit it on your tablet. The Ideas app allows you to export files to your Creative Cloud account as well for further editing on desktop Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.
However just like their desktop software there is a set of hardware and software requirements for the Android Touch Apps. Adobe lists that their Touch Apps are compatible with Android 3.1 and Android 3.2 tablets, display size should be 8.9-inches or larger, display resolution should be 1280×800 at least, and a built-in camera is recommended. Those requirements mean just about every Android Honeycomb tablet released thus far is qualified to run the full suite of Adobe Touch Apps.
