The Ultimate Guide to Adobe’s 10 Creative Apps—and What Each One Does Best

TL;DR

Adobe offers more than 20 apps across design, video, 3D, photography, and web. This guide breaks down the key tools, what they do, and how to pick the right ones for your workflow.

Short Paragraphs

Adobe’s Creative Cloud covers everything from illustration to motion graphics, 3D texturing to social‑media posts.
Whether you're a photographer, web designer, or video editor, there’s a specialist tool for your niche—though figuring out which apps you really need can be overwhelming.
The article categorises the software into major groups: digital art & design; video & animation; 3D & AI; photography; and web/UX & collaboration. It then highlights 13 of the most important apps, explaining platforms, use‑cases, and pros vs cons.

Highlights

• Everything under one roof: From raster editing in Adobe Photoshop to vector work in Adobe Illustrator; layout in Adobe InDesign; and motion in Adobe After Effects.

• Specialist vs generalist tools: The article outlines when to pick a specialised app (e.g., Illustrator for vector work) vs a broad‑use app (Photoshop).

• Costs & hidden factors: Though many apps are included in Creative Cloud, additional costs like extra cloud storage or separate subscriptions for 3D suites (e.g., the Substance 3D Collection) can add up.
