Adobe drops Photoshop Touch for Creative Cloud

Adobe plans to discontinue its Photoshop Touch app to focus on developing Creative Cloud starting May 28. This suite of mobile apps is designed to flesh out its powerful desktop tools into various apps like Brush CC, Color CC, Shape CC, etc. This also ties in with Adobe’s Creative Cloud subscription service that makes it easier to sync edits between apps and devices. The apps are available for free download but if you want to use its cloud storage, then you’ll have to pay.
