What Is the Newest Version of Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 12:36 am

Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Inc. for macOS and Windows. Photoshop was created in 1988 by Thomas and John Knoll. Since then, it has become the de facto industry standard in raster graphics editing, to the point that Photoshop has become a generic trademark leading to its use as a verb such as “to Photoshop an image”, “photoshopping” and “Photoshop contest”, although Adobe discourages such use.

PRO TIP: The newest version of Photoshop is not always the best option. Sometimes newer versions have more bugs than older versions. If you are having trouble with a newer version of Photoshop, try using an older version.

Photoshop offers users a wide variety of features, including support for layers, color management, history, curves, masks, text, alpha compositing and much more. As an industry standard, Photoshop’s ease of use and comprehensive feature set make it a popular choice among professional photographers and graphic designers, as well as amateur photographers and designers.

The latest version of Photoshop is Photoshop CC 2018 (19.1), which was released on October 18, 2017. This version includes new features such as support for high-resolution monitors, new Creative Cloud Libraries capabilities, new Typekit fonts, support for Microsoft Surface Dial, and more.
