Photoshop 2020 was released on November 4, 2019. Version 21 has many new and enhanced features like the new object selection tool for better automation of complex selections, new properties panel, enhanced transform warp, new keyboard shortcuts for paint & brush and background image removal option. It added several improvements to the new content-aware fill and to the new document tab. Also added were animated [[GIF]] support, improved lens blur performance and one-click zoom to a layer's contents. It introduced new swatches, gradients, patterns, shapes and stylistic sets for [[OpenType]] fonts. With this version users now can easily convert smart objects to layers and also can adjust 32-bit layers for brightness/contrast and curves. Presets are now more intuitive to use and easier to organize.

With the February 2020 update (version 21.1) Photoshop now can iteratively fill multiple areas of an image without having to leave content-aware fill workspace. This version improved GPU based lens blur quality and provided performance improvements, such as accelerating workflows with smoother panning, zooming and navigation of documents.

Version 21 was the first version where the [[iPad]] version was released. With Photoshop on the iPad, combined with the new Cloud PSD file format, a user can save cloud documents and work across Windows, Mac and iPad.<ref name=":0" />  Photoshop on the iPad does not have all the features of the desktop Photoshop.<ref name=":0" />  Adobe promises to update Photoshop on the iPad at "a much more aggressive pace than it has with its current Creative Cloud apps for the desktop".<ref name=":0" /> Adobe has provided a timeline for enhancing Photoshop on the iPad to have more of the features of desktop Photoshop.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Photoshop Reimagined for iPad: The Journey|url=https://theblog.adobe.com/photoshop-reimagined-for-ipad-the-journey/|date=November 21, 2019|website=Adobe Blog|language=en-US|access-date=May 12, 2020|archive-date=May 13, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200513125932/https://theblog.adobe.com/photoshop-reimagined-for-ipad-the-journey/|url-status=live}}</ref>
