I’d like to know more about ARM Photoshop — is this fully featured photoshop, or are you referring to the iOS app?

  The iOS app should be a fully featured one - https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/news/photoshop-ipad/ https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/news/photoshop-ipad/

    Yeah, that didn't happen. The iOS app had a tiny fraction of the functionality of the full Mac app. Adobe were simply lying when they announced that. Indeed, it's a very poor imitation, just with some of the same codebase underneath (and literally nobody is "wow, Photoshop's famous codebase! That's what I want because it's totally not an infamous piece of garbage that I tolerate because of it's functionality!").

      The problem was that they needed to do the whole UI to be touch first. That won't be a problem on an ARM macOS version.

  As announced originally the iOS version is compiling the same code as the desktop version. The unfortunate thing is that they have to slowly redo the whole UI touch first. That disadvantage is not present on macOS where they can use the current UI code and just compile it to ARM. https://theblog.adobe.com/adobe-photoshop-aero-gemini-dimension-photoshop-cc/ https://theblog.adobe.com/adobe-photoshop-aero-gemini-dimens... Don't forget that most photoshop code also ran on PowerPC and is thus platform agnostic.
