I've gone hands on with Adobe Premiere's new free Android app — here’s what it’s like to use, and why 'free' comes with a catch

Adobe Premiere on Android has officially launched The free video editing app adds easy 4K video editing, AI, and more I spent an hour with the app to see how it runs and if it really does offer 'effortless editing' for creations Adobe Premiere for Android has arrived - finally, since Apple users got this app almost exactly a year ago.

The mobile editing app is promising to deliver 4K video for content creators, alongside a slew of other tools including templates and AI generation (did you ever doubt it?).

Like most of Adobe's mobile apps, Premiere is free to download from the Google Play Store , although you'll need a subscription for extra AI generations and storage.

The upshot is, I've been keen to try out this Android app for a long time now, so here's what you can expect after I spent an hour dabbling with it on my Fairphone.

What's new? This new Adobe Premiere app is specifically designed for Android phones, including foldables.

According to Adobe, you'll need a device running Android 13 or later, with a minimum of 5GB RAM.

The app serves up a host of useful tools for content creators, including 4K video, simple-to-use templates for speeding up production, multi-track timeline editing, music and audio effects, and generative AI for image and video.

One of the high-points, as far as I'm concerned, is that it has no ads and exported videos are watermark-free.

A lot of 'free' mobile video editors could learn from this.

There are no added intros and outros promoting Adobe either.

So you can basically start creating video for social channels immediately.

But is it any good? Here are my thoughts...

First impressions (Image credit: Future) I spent the last hour toying with Adobe Premiere to see whether it lives up to the promise of creating "stand out edits to share on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook." Spoiler alert : It's good stuff.
