History

There were three mobile apps that were predecessors to Adobe Express:[4]

  • Adobe Post for iPhone and iPad, which turned photos and text into graphics to be posted to social media or similar media
  • Adobe Slate for iPad, which turned photos and text into stories, such as magazine-like travel stories, photo albums, newsletters, and reports
  • Adobe Voice for iPhone, which let users record their own stories with their voice and then illustrate them with images

In 2016, Adobe unified these apps under the Adobe Spark brand and added a web version.[4] In 2021, the application was relaunched as Adobe Creative Cloud Express,[3] which was simplified to Adobe Express the next year.[5]

In 2023, Adobe launched Adobe Express for Enterprise,[6] and later that year, incorporated generative artificial intelligence into the product.[7]

Collaboration

In October 2022, Adobe announced a collaboration with Wix to extend Adobe Express capabilities to Wix users.[8] Adobe has also partnered with several organizations and companies, including Etsy, Meta and Mastercard.[9]

In May 2022, American singer GAYLE launched a campaign in partnership with Adobe that invites fans to use and share visual templates created with Adobe Express.[10]

In May 2023, Google collaborated with Adobe to enable Gemini users to generate images via Adobe Firefly and then modify them using Express.[11][12][13]
