Adobe has officially released its redesigned Premiere video-editing app for Android, nearly a year after the version for iPhone launched.

Designed to function across a broad range of hardware, the app is compatible with devices running Android 13 or later that possess at least 5 GB of RAM.
By the numbers
Device Optimization and Features
The app is optimized for various Android form factors, including foldable devices, where it adjusts the interface to display footage and the multi-track timeline across the screen. Adobe also confirmed that its mobile portfolio, including Premiere, is optimized for Googlebook laptops to utilize larger screens, though the company notes these do not provide a desktop-grade experience comparable to Windows or macOS versions. The interface offers both a mini editor for quick trims and filters, and a full editor for granular, multi-track projects. Users can access creator-made templates or start from scratch, with the ability to export directly to YouTube Shorts.
AI Tools and Subscription Options
While the core video editing experience is free, the app includes generative AI features such as text-to-video and image-to-video tools. These utilize models including Adobe Firefly, Google Veo, Google Omni, Luma Ray, and Kling. Free users receive 250 monthly AI credits, while a paid subscription of $8 per month or $70 per year provides 1,200 monthly credits. A Creative Cloud account or subscription is not required for standard editing functions.
