Photoshop on the iPad 4.1 (November 2022 release)

Target layer on canvas

With the latest release of Photoshop on the iPad, select your preferred layer or bounding box directly on the canvas without navigating to its thumbnail view on the taskbar. Or, once selected, tap outside the transform bounding box and move the layer.

You can also add text to images, apply filters, and make adjustments without slowing down your workflow. 

This feature is enabled by default but can be disabled from the Move tool settings.

Your photo compositing workflows just hit their sweet spot with this feature.
