Adobe has launched the Comp CC, which is a free app for the iPad that allows users from designers to the average person to quickly create layout concepts on their tablet.

The CC stands for Creative Cloud, a tag that has been seen in other recent Adobe products such as Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC. Adobe Creative Cloud tools allows users to move their work from their iPad to the desktop instantaneously, utilizing the software in conjunction with each other to develop and finish their designs.

"Doing creative work on a mobile device is only useful if the results can be synced to the desktop, where the project can be perfected in a precise, professional-grade tool like InDesign or Photoshop," said Adobe VP of Products, Scott Belsky.

Belsky added that through Comp CC, the design process is simplified to help its users make the initial drafts of their layout designs on their iPad and then transfer the file to their desktop computers to serve as the foundation for further refinements.

Comp CC can also be extended to desktop and mobile workflows through the Creative Profile and Creative Cloud Libraries systems.

Creative Cloud Libraries include a collection of design components such as images, colors, text styles and brushes that users have made using CC tools. The Creative Profile of an Adobe member, on the other hand, arranges the libraries of users as they move between Adobe apps and between desktops to iPads. All in all, these two features allow users to work over different devices and Adobe apps with ease.

New York Times former design director Khoi Vinh, when approached by Adobe regarding a new app for design, said that there was an untapped potential for the iPad to be used by graphic designers and digital artists.

The Creative Cloud was released to the market back in 2012, providing users with access to Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator through a paid-subscription and cloud-based program.

The Adobe Comp CC software can now be downloaded for the iPad for free from Apple's iTunes App Store. Users that do not have a Creative Cloud subscription will still be able to download the app, but with limited functionality.

Upon launching the app, users are asked on what the end product will be for, in terms of document size. Users can then practically do anything on the blank canvas, with Adobe Comp instantly turning squiggly shapes such as rectangle and circles into their perfect forms. Text, colors and so many other design components can be added.
