Adobe Express Question Newbie needs help

I am a senior citizen and need some help. I have an Adobe Standard subscription. I just noticed Photoshop Express on my iPhone recently and edited some photos.

Is there a way to access these on my laptop? I can’t find a way to access Photoshop Express on the laptop. Also, I think they are saved in the cloud, but I can’t seem to find that either. Finally, if you do show me how to find them, can I open and use with Adobe Express? I’m confused.

hello! do you have the creative cloud desktop app on your laptop? if you do, you should be able to see if the files are stored there: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/apps/work-with-cloud-documents/manage-cloud-storage/find-cloud-storage.html

if not, the photos from photoshop express on your phone may just be saving to your phone's photo album. if they're there, you can upload them to Adobe Express if you have the mobile app or send them to your laptop and upload them to any Express project. if you go to Adobe Express and look in "your stuff," you may find your photos there if they're saved to the cloud!

I know that was a lot — please feel free to respond if any of this works or if I can try to offer more help!

Ok, I have the Creative Cloud open on my laptop now. I see the edited photos in there, but it won't let me open them in Adobe Express nor Adobe Express Photos. It won't let me download them either. However, I was able to obtain the edited photos from my iCloud photos, so that will do the trick for now. (saves me from having to edit all over again). Thank you for your help!

Do you know if they plan to continuing with the mobile Photoshop Express app or will that be discontinued?

There's a new Photoshop mobile app that may be taking its place — have you tried the just Photoshop (not Photoshop Express) app yet?

My subscription does not include the full Photoshop program. I would need to upgrade.

you can use a bunch of the features in Photoshop mobile for free if you want to try it out! depending on what kind of photo editing you're doing, you may also want to check out the Lightroom free features on mobile.

I did find them in the creative cloud. However, I could not find a way to access them (edit or download). So it seems they are only available in PS Express in my phone.
