Can I Get Photoshop on a Chromebook?

Last updated on September 23, 2022 @ 8:45 pm

Chromebooks are great for many things. They’re lightweight, have long battery life, and are relatively inexpensive. But can you get Photoshop on a Chromebook?

The answer is yes and no. Adobe offers a cloud-based version of Photoshop called Photoshop CC.

This version of Photoshop can be used on a Chromebook. However, it requires an Internet connection to use.

PRO TIP: Photoshop is a resource-intensive program that requires a fast processor and plenty of RAM. Chromebooks typically have slower processors and less RAM than a traditional computer, so running Photoshop on a Chromebook is not ideal.

If you’re looking for a more traditional version of Photoshop that can be installed on your Chromebook, you’re out of luck. Adobe only offers Photoshop CC for Chromebooks.

So, if you want to use Photoshop on your Chromebook, you’ll need to sign up for Adobe’s Creative Cloud service. This will give you access to Photoshop CC, as well as other Adobe creative apps like Illustrator and Lightroom.
