Photoshop For iPad Gains New ‘Select Subject’ Feature

One of the features of Adobe Photoshop for the desktop is called Select Subject. This is a feature that is powered by Adobe’s Sense AI engine where it makes it easy for users to select images of their subjects in the app. Given that not all subject matters are regular-shaped, this can be a tricky process for those who aren’t too adept at using selection tools like the lasso.

The feature used to be exclusive to the desktop, but if you’re a Photoshop user on the iPad, you are in luck as Adobe has since announced that they have brought the feature over to the tablet version of the app. This means that users of Photoshop on the iPad will be able to make selections a lot easier and in a lot less time compared to normal.

The Select Subject feature has also been updated where according to Adobe, they claim that the updated version of it will work almost instantly, so give it a try if you have the app on your tablet. In case you’re wondering why this is a big deal, basically selecting irregular objects can be tricky if you’re not familiar with Photoshop.

This is especially true of subjects that have hair where it can be difficult to ensure that you’re selecting the subject properly, otherwise you might end up with a selection where the subject’s hair has been cut out and it looks odd.
