Summary
Adobe has expanded its experimental Project Indigo iPhone camera app with AI photo critique, reshoot guidance, object removal, depth-of-field generation and style transfer under a new AI Playground tab.
Google’s Gemini-based Nano Banana model powers the features, which Adobe says favor button-based, more deterministic edits over hard-to-write prompts, though the app still includes a text-described edit option.
Project Indigo’s critique tools assess framing, lighting, color and emotional impact, then suggest capture changes or Lightroom edits to improve an existing shot.
Object removal now offers preset toggles for people, trash, wires, fences, vehicles and other clutter instead of requiring users to manually circle items on screen.
Only a small group of users can test the features for now, and Adobe says it may later swap in other models, including its own Firefly system.
