Why This Matters for Mobile Creators
Eliminates reliance on simpler mobile editors — now your iPhone can handle serious edits.
Saves time: shoot, edit, deliver — all from one device, especially useful for social media, client reviews, or news content.
Maintains compatibility with the broader Adobe ecosystem — no need to rebuild edits later.
Facilitates hybrid workflows: mobile editing + desktop finishing.
Getting Started: Tips & Best Practices
Install & explore templates: After downloading, explore the built-in templates and presets to speed your workflow.
Keep timelines clean: Use named tracks (audio, video, b-roll) to stay organized when transferring to desktop.
Use AI tools smartly: Let “Enhance Speech” clean up dialogue, but always review for artifacts.
Mind file sizes in 4K HDR: Use proxies or lower resolution drafts if storage is limited.
Save early, transfer often: Regularly send the project to Premiere Pro to back up and continue work.
Migrate from Premiere Rush: If you were a Rush user, start converting your projects and learning the new interface now.
In short: Adobe is aiming to bring serious, pro-level video editing to mobile devices while maintaining interoperability with its desktop ecosystem.
