Master Adobe Firefly on the go

How to use image and video generative AI tools on your iPhone

ADOBE FIREFLY MOBILE is an AI-powered content creator that enables you to conjure up (generate) photos and video clips from a text description (or prompt) on your iPhone. Now, you may have no interest in creating a video of a “cat wearing a straw hat”, but before you flip to the next page, read on. Firefly’s generative AI tools can also fix or enhance existing photos in astonishing ways. For example, Apple’s Photos app uses generative AI to power its mostly effective Clean Up tool, but this can require several swipes before completely replacing an unwanted object. Firefly Mobile can remove unwanted objects more quickly and effectively. You may have a vertically composed shot that needs to be a wide horizontal image for a Facebook banner. Firefly can extend a wider canvas by generating new pixels that blend seamlessly with a shot’s original buildings! So here's how to use Firefly Mobile as both a photo fixer and a content creator...
