Can You Buy Standalone Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 3:17 pm

Adobe Photoshop is a paid software program that is part of the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription service. It is a very popular program used by graphic designers, professional photographers, and even amateur enthusiasts to edit digital photos and create stunning graphics. Photoshop has been around for over three decades and has become the industry standard for image editing and manipulation.

So, can you buy Photoshop as a standalone program? The answer is yes, but it will cost you.

Adobe currently sells two versions of Photoshop CC (Creative Cloud): the Standard version for $9.99/month and the Extended version for $19.99/month. If you cancel your Creative Cloud subscription, you will no longer have access to Photoshop.

PRO TIP: No, you cannot buy standalone Photoshop. Adobe Creative Cloud is the only way to get Photoshop and you must subscribe to it to use Photoshop.

However, there is another way to get your hands on Photoshop without paying a monthly subscription fee. Adobe offers a free trial of Photoshop CC that lasts for seven days. After the trial period expires, you can continue to use Photoshop with reduced functionality until you decide to either purchase a Creative Cloud subscription or uninstall the program.
