Adobe's Firefly comes to iOS and Android
Now, it is releasing a Firefly app on both iOS and Android that lets people use all of its models as well as models from OpenAI (GPT image generation), Google (Imagen 3 and Veo 2), and Flux (Flux 1.1 Pro).
Like the web app, the new smartphone apps let you use prompts to generate images or videos or convert images into videos. You can also edit certain parts of images using generative fill or expand an image with generative expand. Adobe Creative Cloud subscribers can start a project on the Firefly mobile app and store it in the cloud to access it through the web or desktop app.
The company is now also supporting more third-party models, including Flux.1 Kontext by Black Forest Labs, Ideogram 3.0 by Ideogram, and Gen-4 Image by Runway.
The company is also updating Adobe Canvas, its collaborative whiteboarding tool, with the ability to generate videos. Canvas lets users generate videos with Adobe's own video models as well as those made by its competitors.
Adobe said users have so far created more than 24 billion media assets with its Firefly models, and that its AI features have been a big factor in increasing the number of first-time subscribers 30% quarter-over-quarter.

Google Photos starts rolling out the new look for its video player
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google has started rolling out a new update to its Photos app, which includes a new video player UI. Additionally, the company has changed up its setup UI for new Photos users. These updates are part of Google's gradual rollout of its Material 3 Expressive redesign. Google has started rolling out some of its visual changes to the Photos app, which include a new video player progress bar with larger controls. While we spotted a few of the upcoming changes in an APK teardown back in June, users can now get access to the new UI by updating their Google Photos app to the latest version. The rollout was initially tipped by users in the Gapps Leaks Telegram group and we've since confirmed it by updating the app on our own devices. The video player now has a larger progress bar, along with a vertical indicator for easy navigation through the timeline. The volume button now sits above the progress bar. Rather than using the pause button in the center of the screen, there's a new pause button above the progress bar. Old player New player Fast forward indicator But instead of holding down on the left or right side of the video to adjust video playback speed and fast forward and rewind, the updated player allows you to double tap on the left or right of the video to skip ahead or rewind by five seconds. With additional taps, you can skip ahead or rewind further, with five seconds added per tap. Google has also tweaked the onboarding screen, making the user's profile picture and name more prominent. While this aligns with Google's Material Expressive 3 redesign, it lacks the useful mobile data toggle that we found nifty in our April onboarding UI teardown. Old New While there's something to be said for incremental changes, we're hoping that Google will continue to make more substantive updates to the app. I personally find the ability to share Google Photos albums with a QR code quite nice. Google is currently working on a bunch of redesigned elements for other apps which embrace the Material 3 Expressive design language. These include updates to Gmail, Phone, Meet, and plenty more.

YouTube's latest experiment makes comments feel more like Reddit, if that sounds like an improvement
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube is rolling out Reddit-style comment threading to Premium subscribers on Android and iOS. The experiment has been updated so the main comment is threaded to subsequent replies. Threaded comments will remain available until August 14. YouTube's comments section is going to look a little different for Premium subscribers. The company is rolling out an experiment inspired by Reddit. Earlier this year, YouTube began testing a new threaded comment UI for Android and iOS. At the time, only a small group of users got the chance to use the threaded comment system. YouTube has now announced that it is expanding the experiment to Premium users. When the test first rolled out, it was a bit of a half-baked product compared to the way it's implemented on Reddit. However, YouTube has since improved the feature. Previously, it only connected a user's profile picture to the 'X replies' button. Now the feature has been updated, so the main comment is threaded to subsequent replies. Additionally, replies to a reply are now threaded as well. Overall, it's a change that some will appreciate and others maybe less so. As it's an experiment, it won't be around for forever. The company notes that comment threading will stick around for Premium subscribers until August 14. Just like the initial test, this experiment will only appear on Android and iOS. Got a tip?
