Turn any image into a color theme, pattern, unique brush, Look, or vector graphic that you can use in your creative projects on desktop and mobile devices.
Capture in action.
Use your mobile device to take photos of anything that inspires you. Then extract a color, create a pattern or brush, or turn a shape into a vector graphic that you can use in all your favorite desktop and mobile apps, including Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Comp, and Photoshop Sketch.
Capture inspiration anywhere
Take photos of anything you like with your mobile device and start turning the world around you into color themes, patterns, and shapes that you can integrate into your designs. You can also browse and license millions of Adobe Stock images right inside Capture.
Create a Look for video projects
Capture color and light from the world around you, from your camera roll or even from your Adobe Creative Cloud account. Then use those unique Looks to enhance your video projects.
Convert a photo into a brush
Design beautiful, high-quality brushes in styles ranging from painterly to graphic using your finger or an Apple Pencil. Working in Photoshop Sketch? Launch Capture right from the Sketch app, create a new brush, and it will appear in your toolbar.
Creative Cloud Libraries
Colors, shapes, and patterns that you create can be saved to Creative Cloud Libraries for quick access in your desktop and mobile apps. Send patterns to Photoshop CC to refine and use as fill in your designs.
Turn objects into vector-based shapes
Grab an interesting object from any photo, and use your fingertip to precisely refine and edit the shape. Or create a vector graphic in Illustrator Draw by launching Capture from inside the app, and instantly apply it to your design.
