Work with layers

Last updated on Feb 13, 2026

Use layers to make non-destructive edits to images.

On the Photoshop on iPhone homescreen, select Create new   to create or import content.

Select Add image   to add a secondary image as a new layer.

Open the Layers panel and select the layer you want to edit.

Adjust the following settings as needed:

  • Blend and opacity: Control how a layer blends with layers below it and adjust its transparency.
  • Create mask: Hide or reveal specific areas of a layer.
  • Transform: Resize, rotate, flip, or reposition a layer on the canvas.

Select the checkmark   to commit the change.
