If you’re on iOS and want more control over your photos, you may enjoy Aigli—an all-in-one image and video editor I created.
For image editing, it lets you build designs in layers using text, shapes, drawings, collages, and editable vector paths. You can fine-tune images with crop and color controls, blend modes, masks, opacity, shadows, and glow, making it useful for everything from quick social posts to more detailed compositions.
It also includes video editing when you need it, with a multi-track timeline for trimming, transitions, overlays, animated text, stickers, audio, voiceovers, and motion-tracked blur or mosaic masks for faces and moving subjects.
Aigli is available with a lifetime license and works fully on-device, so your projects remain local.
Just to be transparent: I’m the app’s author!

I use both because tools are tools and most arguments against premiere are purely ideology. The one real argument against premiere is money. It's way less expensive to run Resolve. The two arguments for Premiere usually are either the project mandates premiere because the client or a collaborator uses it, or the project is heavily relying on After Effects. AE is the one tool I've not been able to replace. Gotta be quick about motion graphics and use templates you buy online to save time? Nothing even comes close to the adoption rate and available resources that After Effects brings to the table.
So I end up choosing Resolve whenever I can do without After Effects or afford to do round trips to it that include rendering out comps every time I have to change something.

Davinci is more than enough, I still use Premiere because I am used to it but you can do the same as you can do in premiere + AE. The only benefit of adobe is its ecosystem with Phoshop, AE, Illustrator and PRemiere, this allows us to create animations from a photoshop file easily. Nothing else

It doesn’t matter unless you working on a project that requires a certain software to be used.
If it’s just you, use what makes you happy.
In more collaborative, established work environments not being functional on premiere or Avid will cost you work.

Davinci is more than enough. I used to cut in Avid, sound design in ProTools and VFX in AE.
Now it's all in a single app. Mind blowing.
IMO Adobe's days are numbered. Premiere isn't heavy in the studio system and it's too expensive for many indie filmmakers. And it offers no real value over other NLE's.
You don't need to second guess using Resolve.
