Adobe Inc. on Tuesday released a standalone Firefly mobile application for Android and iOS in an attempt to put a larger spotlight on its artificial intelligence-powered image generation and editing tools.

The new app offers capabilities such as generative fill, generative expand, text to image, text to video, and image to video. The generative fill tool makes it easy to remove distracting elements of a photo — or add something to the image that wasn’t originally present. Generative expand uses AI to stretch a photo to better fit various aspect ratios, which can be useful for social media posts.
