Want to download Adobe Creative Cloud Express? We'll explain how, and help you get it at the best price... even for free.
We all love Adobe apps, but most of them don't come cheap. And in general, Adobe doesn't seem to be a fan of giving them away for free. But there's one big exception: Adobe Creative Cloud Express.
Don't get too excited. This is not the same thing as the Adobe Creative Cloud, the mighty software suite that includes Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects, Premiere Pro and more. That, you have to pay a monthly subscription for.
No, Creative Cloud Express is actually an easy-to-use software tool for people who don't have Photoshop skills and don't have the time or inclination to learn them. To help out in this situation, Creative Cloud Express provides an alternative way to create graphics, web pages, and short videos for social media, easily and quickly. It includes lots of royalty-free templates, photos, images, fonts and icons to get you going, so you don't have to design everything from scratch each time. Until last December, it was called Adobe Spark.
It's a great app for anyone who wants to create some promotional content for your photography or side project, to share on Facebook, Instagram and other places. And the best news is, the basic version is free, forever.

What's the difference between the free and premium version of Adobe Creative Cloud Express?
The full version of Adobe Creative Cloud Express is a paid service that sits on top of the Starter Plan. This allows you access to a wider range of premium templates and design assets, the entire collection of over 160 million royalty-free Adobe Stock collection photos, over 20,000 licensed Adobe Fonts, curved type, grids, and font pairs, and additional premium features such as refine cutout, resize, and graphic groups.
Rather than the normal 2GB storage, you'll get a massive 100GB. You'll be able to convert and export to and from PDFs and other file types, and you can create, manage, and share your templates and assets with Creative Cloud Libraries. You can find the full details of how the free and paid plans differ here.
The paid version of Adobe is included with every Creative Cloud plan, or you can buy it as a stand-alone plan, either on the Adobe Creative Cloud Express website or via in-app purchase in the Adobe Creative Cloud Express mobile apps.
