Adobe's New iOS and Android AI Apps Let You Use Google's Veo 3, Runway and More
Adobe's Firefly AI is now available as mobile apps for iPhones and Androids, the company announced on Tuesday. These apps are free to download and let you use Firefly to create AI images and videos on the go. Plus, the app comes with a few free generative credits for you to experiment with Adobe's AI. Adobe is also expanding its roster of third-party AI partners to include six new models from Ideogram, Pika, Luma and Runway. Google's latest AI models are also joining the lineup, including the internet-famous Veo 3 AI video generation model with native audio capabilities and the Imagen 4 text-to-image model support. Finally, its moodboarding AI program, Firefly Boards, is generally available today after months in beta. Here's everything you need to know about Adobe's newest batch of Firefly AI updates. For more, check out our favorite AI image generators and what to know about AI video models. Firefly AI for iOS and Android users Adobe's Firefly mobile apps will let you access its AI image and video capabilities from your phone. A mobile app felt like the next natural step, since Adobe saw that mobile web usage of Firefly noticeably increased after Adobe's Firefly video capability launched in early 2025. Not every Firefly feature will be available at launch, but for now, we know that these features will be included: text-to-image, text- and image-to-video, generative fill, and generative expand. You can download the app now from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The app is free to download, but you'll need a Firefly-inclusive Adobe plan to really use the app. In the hopes that you'll sign up for a full plan, Adobe gives you 12 free generation Firefly credits (10 for images, two for videos, which doesn't shake out to many of each). So you can use those to see if Firefly is a good fit for you. Firefly plans start at $10 per month for 2,000 credits (about 20 videos), increasing in price and generation credits from there. Depending on your Adobe plan, you may already have access to Firefly credits, so double-check that first. Adobe's six new AI models from Google, Runway and more Adobe's also adding new outside AI creative models to its offerings, including image and video models from Ideogram, Pika, Luma and Runway. You might recognize the name Runway from its deal with Lionsgate to create models for the entertainment giant. Ideogram, Pika and Luma are all other well-known AI creative services. Google's Veo 3 AI video generator is also joining, bringing its first-of-its-kind synchronized AI audio capabilities, along with the latest generation of Google's AI image model. This is the second batch of third-party models that Adobe has added to its platform. Earlier this spring, Adobe partnered with OpenAI, Google and Black Forest (creator of Flux) to bring the companies' AI models to Adobe. What's unique about this is that all third-party models have to agree to Adobe's AI policy, which prevents all the companies from training on customers' content -- even if the individual companies don't have that policy on their own, it's standardized across all models offered through Adobe. This is also true for the new models added today. For AI-wary professional creators who make up the majority of Adobe users, that's a bit of good news. You'll need a paid Firefly plan to access outside models; otherwise, you'll just have access to the Adobe models. Here are all the AI models available through Adobe: Adobe Firefly Image 3 Adobe Firefly Image 4 Adobe Firefly Image Ultra Flux 1.1 Pro Flux 1 Kontext Google's Imagen 3 OpenAI's image generation model (new) Ideogram 3 (new) Google's Imagen 4 (new) Runway's Gen-4 Image For video, you can use: Adobe Firefly Video Google Veo 2 (new) Google Veo 3 (new) Luma AI Ray 2 (new) Pika's text-to-video generator Adobe's own Firefly AI models are trained on a combination of Adobe Stock and other licensed content. You can learn more in Adobe's AI guidelines and approach to AI. AI moodboarding gets a boost Other Adobe updates include the general release of its moodboarding program, Firefly Boards, which has been in beta since April. Moodboarding is a practice that lets you cluster together different elements, like colors and shapes, to evoke specific moods and aesthetics. It's a good initial step for planning content and campaigns. Adobe You can use the infinite canvas to brainstorm and plan content. You can generate images and videos in Boards using Adobe and non-Adobe models; the setups are very similar to generating in the regular Firefly window. Boards are collaborative, so you can edit with multiple people. A new one-click arrange button can help you organize and visualize your files more easily, a much-requested feature that came out of the beta. Firefly boards are synced up with your Adobe account. So you can select a photo in a Board, open it in Photoshop and edit it. Those changes will then be synced up with your Firefly Board in less than a minute, so you can always see the latest version of your file without needing to be limited to editing in Boards.

Adobe brings AI-image generation app to phones, adds partners
Adobe Inc. released its first dedicated artificial intelligence smartphone app on Tuesday that includes AI models from the company and partner firms, in a bid to tap into a growing trend of sharing AI images and videos over social media. The new app, called Firefly, packages Adobe's own AI model together with models from new partner firms Ideogram, Luma AI, Pika and Runway, and is available on iOS and Android phones. Previously, the service was available only as a web version, that used models from Alphabet's GOOGL.O> Google and OpenAI in addition to Adobe's model. Those models will also be available in the app, Adobe said. Generating images that can easily be shared on social media has become a key driver of AI interest, with OpenAI's Ghibli-style AI images driving record traffic to the ChatGPT creator. Adobe's mobile service will offer subscribers unlimited basic image generation from Adobe models, while it will charge extra for access to the company's premium models and those from its partners. The subscription cost will be the same as for the web versions of Firefly, which start at $10 per month. The San Jose, California-based company had earlier released AI tools along with the mobile app version of its popular image-editing program Photoshop. Adobe has not disclosed how much it pays the partner models on the Firefly app. The company had promised users that its AI model is trained only on material that it has a legal right to use, with Adobe offering protection against copyright claims. Ely Greenfield, Adobe's chief technology officer for digital media, said Adobe's approach has also gained some resonance among consumers. "Even for many of our individual customers, that promise of the commercial safety and the story about how Firefly is trained continues to be a really important differentiator," Greenfield said.

Adobe Firefly Revolutionizes Creative Ideation with New Mobile App, Multimedia Moodboarding and Expanded AI Models
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Adobe (Nasdaq:ADBE) extended its leadership in creative ideation with a major expansion of Adobe Firefly – the destination for AI-assisted content ideation, creation and production – bringing Firefly image and video generation to phones. Firefly's new iOS and Android app, available today, gives creators the freedom to explore ideas and generate and edit images and videos from anywhere using AI. Firefly's web and mobile apps serve creators' ideation as a standalone experience and seamlessly sync with Adobe's Creative Cloud applications to enable project continuity and streamline creative workflows from ideation to production. Firefly Boards, available in public beta on the web, transforms how creative teams ideate and collaborate on concepts with the addition of video to its AI-first moodboarding surface, enabling creative professionals to collaboratively explore and iterate across media types with AI-powered video and image editing. Adobe's expanding ecosystem of generative AI models now includes models from Ideogram, Luma AI, Pika and Runway along with image and video models from OpenAI, Google and Black Forest Labs, offering creators unparalleled flexibility to experiment in different aesthetic styles. The Firefly app empowers creators to generate assets across different media types and explore with different AI models from a single destination with unmatched creative control, iterate and collaborate on concepts and seamlessly deliver them into production. For example, creators can generate an image in the style or composition of an uploaded reference image using Style Reference and Structure Reference, edit assets by expanding images and using a brush to remove objects or paint in new ones with Generative Expand, Generative Remove and Generative Fill, experiment with different variations of their creation by mixing and matching models and transform generated images into a video – all without leaving Firefly. They can generate images based on a 3D scene with Scene to Image (beta), generate fully editable vector-based artwork and design templates with simple text prompts written in everyday language and create text effects – and later this month they'll be able to generate avatars and sound effects from text prompts and sync audio and video clips using the sound of their voice. 'Creators continue to impress us with the breadth and artistry of the images, videos, graphics and designs they're dreaming up in the Firefly app using models from both Adobe and our partners,' said Ely Greenfield, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer. 'Our goal with Firefly is to deliver creators the most comprehensive destination on web and mobile to access the best generative models from across the industry, in a single integrated experience from ideation to generation and editing.' New Firefly Mobile App Now Available on iOS and Android With Firefly mobile, creators have the freedom to easily generate images and videos from anywhere using text prompts (Text to Image, Text to Video), transform images into videos (Image to Video), add or remove objects like people or unsightly road signs from their work (Generative Fill) and extend the size of an image while filling in new areas with AI-generated content (Generative Expand). Creators can explore concepts with Adobe's Firefly family of generative AI models, OpenAI's image generation and Google's Imagen 3 and 4 and Veo 2 and 3. Content created in Firefly is automatically synced with their Creative Cloud account, making it easy to start a project on the mobile app and continue on the web or in desktop apps like Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere Pro. Firefly adds to Adobe's growing ecosystem of mobile apps, which includes Photoshop, Lightroom and Adobe Express. Drawing upon the same underlying technology that powers Adobe's world-class desktop apps, these apps let creators produce pro-caliber content on the go that's ready for use in social content, presentations, printed assets and more. Firefly Boards: AI-First Moodboarding Advances Collaborative Ideation for Creative Teams Firefly Boards, available in public beta, is an entirely new way for creative teams to explore ideas and collaborate on hundreds of concepts at the same time using multiple forms of media. With the addition of video to Firefly Boards' AI-powered moodboarding surface, creative professionals can now remix uploaded video clips and generate new video footage using Adobe's commercially safe Firefly Video Model or with Google's Veo 3, Luma AI's Ray2 and Pika 2.2 text-to-video. In addition to generating images using Firefly models and partners' models, creative teams can also use AI capabilities in Firefly Boards to make iterative edits to images from conversational text prompts using Black Forest Labs' Flux.1 Kontext and OpenAI's image generation capabilities. Firefly Boards can be seen in action here. Unmatched Creative Flexibility with Firefly's Expanding Ecosystem of Generative AI Models Adobe has expanded its Firefly generative AI ecosystem by integrating models from new partners, including Ideogram, Luma AI, Pika and Runway, alongside existing models from OpenAI, Google and Black Forest Labs – providing creators with unprecedented flexibility to explore diverse aesthetic styles and media types. Models from new partners are launching first in Firefly Boards and will soon be accessible across the Firefly app. In April, Adobe brought OpenAI's image generation, Google's Imagen 3 and Veo 2 and Black Forest Labs' Flux 1.1 Pro into its ecosystem. With today's additions, creators now have the flexibility to also choose from Flux.1 Kontext by Black Forest Labs, Ideogram 3.0 by Ideogram, Ray2 by Luma AI, 2.2 text-to-video from Pika, and Gen-4 Image by Runway, and Google's latest Imagen 4 and Veo 3 models. These models are available alongside Adobe's comprehensive family of Firefly models for images, videos, audio and vectors. AI Transparency and Creative Rights with Content Credentials To ensure transparency and protect creators' rights, Firefly automatically attaches Content Credentials to AI-generated content, clearly indicating whether Adobe Firefly models or partner models were used. This empowers creators with more tools and choices to ideate, collaborate, and produce high-quality content seamlessly and with confidence. At Adobe, we take the most creator-friendly approach to AI in the industry, driven by our roots in the creative community and our respect for creators. For more information on our approach, visit: Firefly Momentum Creatives worldwide have used Firefly's generative AI models to create more than 24 billion assets. They're generating lifelike images with Firefly Image Model 4 and working with impeccable detail using Firefly Image Model 4 Ultra, creating 1080p video footage from image and text prompts with the industry's first commercially safe Firefly Video Model and designing new logos with Text-to-Vector, powered by the Firefly Vector Model.
