When we originally created Adobe Voice, we started with the idea that everyone has a great story to tell, so what if created a tool that just let them focus on their story? No distracting production details, timelines, keyframes, searching dozens of places for the right visuals or music… just talk and tell your story. And get a stunning animated explainer video in minutes.
Since then, Apple named Voice one of the Best Apps of the Year. But we're even more jazzed that this radically simple idea has helped millions of people tell their stories better. It's been humbling to see students learn to explain big ideas, small businesses raise awareness, and fantastic causes inspire action every day.
Our biggest user request has been to bring Voice to more places. So to kick that off, we're thrilled to bring Voice to the iPhone. We've optimized the UX for the phone, so now it's even faster to flick through and tell your story. As it turns out, it feels incredibly natural to talk into a phone. :) Oh, and now your stories are synced to the cloud, so if you have stories on an iPad, you can edit them right on your iPhone.
The team is stoked to get this out there and help even more folks create beautiful, engaging, effective explainer videos. Glad to hear what folks think and answer questions y'all have. Most of all, we're excited to see the amazing stories you tell – wherever you are!

@tomng Hey Tom, this is awesome! I saw you talk at the Lean Startup about Adobe Voice and the story behind it. So cool. I basically got an iPad for this one app alone. So stoked to see it on iPhone. Can't wait to try it out. Viet pride!

@tomng Thoughts on bringing this to Android? As I start using more and more Adobe products (curse you CC for making this easy), I find myself feeling like I'm being pushed more and more to the Apple ecosystem. I'm not complaining (obviously what y'all do works) as much as trying to see if it's something that is done by intent or just because the majority of your developers are still more comfortable with iOS and OS/X?

@tomng , I have a suggestion that will make Adobe Voice the best tool ever for education. Automatic page creation by reading a text file o receiving a pasted full script! For every comma ( , ) or punctuation (! ? .), Adobe Voice creates a page. With that, the students can read the pages while recording their voices and they can left the text in full or in part. This will make Voice even more fast to produce videos.

@paulo_andrade Whoa, a Udemy course! Thanks, Paulo! And neat idea. We've definitely wanted to do more to help folks create and leverage scripts and prompts, and make it even faster for people to tell their story. You may see more to come there!

@tomng, let me tell you a secret ! Some top Udemy instructors (the kind that make 6 figures), uses Adobe Voice! And they love it! I can point you one: Alum Hill.
You will see that I also have the same course in Portuguese.
I am creating courses using Adobe Voice and a PC program called EasyVSL, that have the funtionallity that I mention.
Soon, I will create a course about Slate. My courses are created to help people create not only videos, but full courses.
And I can wait to see Post allowing me to create images for things like Facebook covers, etc.
Thanks for such helpfull tool.

@tomng Tom, i'm really thrilled for the simplicity of spark. I do have two suggestions for your consideration. I know more themes and background customizations are on the way, but I would love to see a way to layer two elements such as text and image over the background. Also, a 10 second min and no min would not accomidate a lot of people, like myself from uploading voice overs. Looking forward to its developments.
