Adobe Premiere video editor arrives on Android

Adobe's popular iPhone video app is now available on Android, replacing Premiere Rush with a free, accessible mobile editor.

In brief

Adobe's popular iPhone video app is now available on Android, replacing Premiere Rush with a free, accessible mobile editor. Adobe Premiere is now free on Android with no subscription required, optimized for everything from budget phones to foldable devices. Originally reported by WIRED.

Adobe Premiere comes to Android

Nearly a year after launching on iPhone, Adobe's redesigned Premiere video editor is now available on Android as the official successor to Premiere Rush, which stops being supported September 30.

Built for Android, not just ported

Adobe optimized Premiere for Android's ecosystem rather than simply copying the iPhone version, ensuring it works smoothly on everything from budget phones to Samsung foldables and Google Pixels.

“This is for a really broad range of Android devices.”

On folding phones, you can view footage on the left side while the multi-track timeline appears on the right, maximizing the expanded screen space for editing.

Free to use, no subscription required

Unlike most Adobe products, Premiere on Android is completely free with no login or subscription needed to start editing. Some AI features like Generative Fill require generative credits if you exceed your monthly allotment.

Built-in AI tools and templates

Premiere includes Enhance Audio to boost voices and reduce background noise, plus Firefly-powered features like Generative Fill and Image-to-Video. Creator templates for lifestyle, beauty, and food content help you get started quickly.

Works on lower-power Android devices

Premiere requires 5 GB of RAM and Android 13 or later, but Adobe prioritized compatibility across a broad range of devices rather than limiting it to flagship phones.

The headline

Adobe Premiere is now free on Android with no subscription required, optimized for everything from budget phones to foldable devices.
