Assuming they can pull this off in a very good way (a big assumption), I think this is a smart move. This isn't just for tech illiterates, this is for pros.
Imagine if all new software created was immediately available on iPad - that'd be huge. People have been talking about the lack of pro-grade video editors, vector art painters, and programming environments on iOS for a while now. This could be really interesting.
- bunderbunder 9y agoI like that most may content creation software has a high level of access to the operating environment. I also like that all my iPhone and iPad apps are sandboxed off from each other. I use the devices for different purposes, and want them to behave differently. That's how I felt when Unity flopped, that's how I felt when Windows 8/10 flopped, and that's how I expect I'll feel this time, too.

- egypturnash 9y agoI sure wouldn't hold my breath for any Adobe products to get on board with this, they've put all of one app (Photoshop Elements) on the Mac App Store so far.
- saagarjha 9y agoI wouldn't be so sure. Adobe has a rather large presence on the iOS App Store, and they're frequently featured as early adopters of whatever new technology Apple rolls out during their onstage presentations. Apple would probably try hard to get Adobe to follow along here, since it's an important app that people want to use.
