iPhone users will soon be able to edit social video for free with Adobe Premiere

You will soon be able to edit videos on the go with one of the most popular editing tools — for free.

Adobe announced Thursday that it would be rolling out Adobe Premiere app for iPhone users. Premiere is one of the top editing tools used by creators, especially those who need to edit on the go, and having the ability to do so could prove extremely useful.

Wrote Adobe in a blog post:

"That's why we’re bringing Adobe Premiere to mobile: the trusted editor of your favorite YouTubers, filmmakers, music video editors, and more — now reimagined as a fast, free, and intuitive app that puts pro-level creative control in your hands, without the pro-level complexity."

The app promises to make things easier for editors who might not be sitting at a desktop. It will allow users to record AI-assisted audio, save work for later desktop editing, and export directly to platforms like TikTok, YouTube Shorts, or Instagram. You'll also be able to use Firefly, Adobe's generative AI tool.

Adobe pitched the new app as an upgraded, pro-level editor, compared to its current offering, Premiere Rush. Adobe said the new Premiere iPhone app would launch later this month, and the listing on the App Store notes it's expected Sept. 30.
