Adobe has announced Premiere Mobile for iPhone, a new app designed to bring many of the professional video-editing tools from its desktop software to mobile devices.

The app mirrors the layout of Premiere Pro, with a timeline view that supports multiple layers, allowing editors to create more complex sequences on the go. An Android version is still under development.

Adobe says the app has been developed to provide the same precision controls that desktop users are accustomed to, adapted for a touch interface.

AI to the fore

AI-powered generative tools, a core part of the desktop experience, are also available in the mobile version. Users can generate and refine visual elements directly in the app, although not all desktop features have been included at launch. The audio remix function, which extends or shortens tracks, is currently unavailable.

Instead, Adobe has introduced several audio-focused options tailored for mobile use. The app includes a library of royalty-free music and the ability to generate custom sound effects by recording directly into the device.

Premiere Mobile also provides a range of preset aspect ratios optimised for different social media platforms, such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Custom aspect ratio creation is not currently supported.

One of the app’s most notable features is project syncing, which allows users to begin editing on a mobile device and continue the same project seamlessly on the desktop version of Premiere Pro.

With Premiere Mobile, Adobe is aiming to extend its flagship video editor beyond the desktop, offering creators a portable solution with familiar tools and workflows.
