More specifically, the free version won't have the entire collection of brushes, only a limited set in each category. Free users will also only be able to export at iPad resolution, not high-resolution files needed for print and other uses. Adobe also says that any new features for Fresco will only he available to paid subscribers.

Adobe Fresco has a range of features for illustrators and designers of all skill levels, including the ability to use both vector and raster brushes and to export work to desktop Adobe apps. The highlight, however, is Fresco's Live Brushes. The AI-powered tools give you the option of realistic oil and watercolor painting right on the iPad. It's a lot more forgiving than real-life painting, and it's a lot less messy too.

For now, Adobe Fresco is only available on iPad. You'll need iOS 12.4 or higher and the iPad Pro (all models), iPad Air (3rd generation), iPad (5th and 6th generation) or iPad mini (5th generation). The company plans to bring the app to more devices and platforms like Microsoft Surface and Wacom Mobile Studio Pro in the future. Right now though, there's no timeline on exactly when that will happen.
