Some tasks are as much as four times faster.

Various panels and menu items have been adjusted, enhanced, or improved with additional Quick Actions to allow for an average of double the overall efficiency for common tasks when compared to Photoshop 2019. But if you take the time to learn the changes, you may discover new one-click shortcuts for common tasks such as removing backgrounds, showing and hiding user guides, managing and creating new presets for gradients and more, and changing between color spaces or bit depths. In fact, it’s possible to not even notice any differences on a day-to-day level. Don’t worry, nothing too drastic has happened to the GUI you’re familiar with. Adobe worked on the multiple areas of the user interface to improve usability and efficiency. Other updates, however, may not be exactly what you had in mind.

It’s easy to see how reducing load times for intensive tasks saves time, but adding performance improvements that create as many near real-time experiences as possible also helps create a workflow that feels ready at all times and is less prone to causing fatigue through monotonous several-second waiting games. The new Object Selection tool is pretty sweet, especially in optimal conditions.
