Adobe introduces Photoshop collaboration with Live Co-editing

Adobe is introducing Live Co-Editing to Photoshop, allowing multiple users to edit documents simultaneously from different locations. The feature, now available for beta testing on Photoshop’s desktop (beta) and web apps, aims to streamline creative collaboration.

Key Features of Live Co-Editing:

  • Real-time collaboration: Designers can divide tasks and work on projects simultaneously.
  • Enterprise efficiency: Large teams can manage complex projects within a single file.
  • Client collaboration: Creators can invite clients to review and provide feedback directly in the document.
  • Education support: Educators can demonstrate techniques live and provide direct feedback on students’ work.

Community-Driven Enhancements:

Adobe has incorporated user feedback to refine Photoshop, with significant updates introduced in 2024, including:

  • Distraction Removal tool: Automatically detects and eliminates unwanted elements in images.
  • Enhanced workflows: Improvements in adjustments, compositing, selection tools, and typography.

Adobe encourages users to participate in beta testing to further refine Live Co-Editing, with ongoing refinements expected based on user input.
