Adobe today updated Photoshop on macOS with native support for M1-powered Apple Silicon Macs. In addition, the company is rolling out improvements to Photoshop on iPad and previewing a new ML Super Resolution feature.
Last November, Adobe previewed M1 support in Photoshop with a pared-down beta build. If you’ve been running the beta on your own machine, expect similar if not greater performance in today’s full build. I’ve been testing the native version of Photoshop released today and found that it’s by far the fastest Adobe app to launch and run on my M1 MacBook Air.
Adobe says they’ve seen 1.5x speed improvements from similarly configured previous generation systems in their own internal testing. There are a few trade-offs. Features like Invite to Edit Cloud Documents and Preset Syncing aren’t yet available on the latest build. In the meantime, Adobe says customers can switch back to Rosetta 2 if they encounter a missing feature or issue communicating between two Creative Cloud apps.
