NEW! Adobe Creative Cloud Mobile Apps for Chromebooks

Your students now have access to Adobe tools where they didn’t before. Adobe recently announced updated Android apps optimized for Google Chromebooks.  Both students and educators will now have free access to Adobe mobile apps.

In addition to introducing students to design concepts and tools, mobile apps should be useful as a supplement to Adobe Creative Cloud, not as a replacement. These mobile apps have key features from the Creative Cloud products, although users are limited in what they can accomplish using the mobile apps alone. Because mobile apps are an introductory starting point, we strongly recommend also making Adobe Creative Cloud available to students. Adobe Creative Cloud is much more robust and comprehensive—it has all the features and functionality a professional would need and helps students learn the digital skills they need to be successful during school and after graduation. Companies highly value ‘digitally literate’ individuals with critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills. By providing your students with access to digital tools that are widely used in the workplace, they will have the upper hand for future advancement.

Adobe encourages teachers to unlock students’ creative potential and let their imagination run free by incorporating these apps into the classroom. Educators can add creativity to a class curriculum with projects that can be created solely through the Adobe mobile apps. Your students can use Adobe mobile apps whenever they want, wherever they are, and send that work to computers in the lab to continue a project using Adobe Creative Cloud desktop software.

Adobe mobile apps are free

All you need to do is visit the Google Play Store on your Chromebook and click “Install.” Once a given app has been downloaded, it will prompt you to sign in with an Adobe ID. If you don’t have one, simply create one, and you will be ready to go. Please note that because an Adobe ID is required to use the apps, students must be 13 years or older.
