Adobe's Photoshop app is now available on Android, the company has confirmed.
The free app arrives a month after Adobe delivered it to the iPhone, and brings a raft of editing tools including the ability to crop, rotate and flip pictures.
There's also options to adjust exposure, saturation and tint, and apply various filters including soft focus and sepia.

As the Android allows multiple applications to be run simultaneously, app users also have the ability to automatically upload pictures to Photoshop.com albums when they're taken, even when the Photshop.com Mobile application isn't running.
While Adobe's Photoshop.com app is still only available in the US and Canada for the iPhone, the Android app has been released globally.

Why boycott the UK iPhone users?
I don't get why Adobe can release this app on the Android phones in the UK but not the iPhone. It bugs me that the UK gets sloppy seconds all the time. It is the same with the Zune a good device that failed to get any take up over here because they refused to allow access to the Zune.net.
Also why we get charged more for being an island when it software.
OK I am just ranting now. I am off to a small dark room to cool down. :)

Growing Android Market
@OxfordRob: "I don't get why Adobe can release this app on the Android phones in the UK but not the iPhone."
Probably because, like most of us, they see the Android market growing with huge forward potential as opposed to the now fairly static iPhone market.
