Capture

Mobile application that transforms photos and images into reusable creative assets.

Overview

Adobe Capture is a mobile application that transforms photos and images into reusable creative assets. Using your device's camera, you can instantly convert images into clean vector graphics, extract color themes, identify fonts, create seamless patterns, generate custom brushes, and remove backgrounds. All captured assets sync directly to Adobe Creative Cloud Libraries, making them immediately available in Photoshop, Illustrator, Dimension, XD, and other Creative Cloud apps for use across your design projects.
