Create and edit videos on Android

Learn how to capture and edit videos using Adobe Premiere Rush on your Android device.

You can use Premiere Rush seamlessly on your desktop and Android devices. When you use Premiere Rush on Android, you have access to unlimited free exports, and you can capture videos with more control right from within the Premiere Rush app.

Install and sign in to Premiere Rush on Android

You can install Premiere Rush from Google Play Store. For information on installing or managing your Premiere Rush subscription on Android, see Manage Premiere Rush subscriptions on Android.

Before installing Premiere Rush, check that your device meets the system requirements

  1. On your Android device, tap the Premiere Rush app icon.
  2. Sign in with your Adobe ID, Facebook account, or Google account.

Create a project

After you have launched the app and signed in, tap the plus (+) button at the bottom of the screen to create a project.

You can then choose Add Media to use already captured media on your device, Creative Cloud, or Dropbox. Or you can directly shoot photos or videos into a new project by tapping on Take Video or Photo

The selected clips appear at the bottom of the screen. Once you’ve made your selections, type in a project name and tap Create to import them into your project.

Capture photos and videos

To take photos and videos, use Premiere Rush's built-in capture functionality, instead of using your device's native camera app. 

You can use AUTO mode to set your focus and white balance with just one tap and then shoot. You also have access to a PRO mode with features that give you more control, such as ISO, shutter speed, white balance, resolution, and frame rate.

To capture media into a new project, do the following steps:

  1. Tap the plus (+) button in Project Browser and then tap Take Video or Photo.

  2. The camera opens.

    You can use the AUTO mode for basic capture controls. For advanced settings such as shutter speed, white balance, resolution, frame rate, and ISO, toggle on PRO mode. For more information on the camera settings, see Capture options.

  3. Once you've defined your capture settings, record video by tapping the red button. To capture photos, tap on the Camera icon next to the red button.

  4. When you are done capturing photos and videos, tap the blue check mark to add your captured media to a new project.
