Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group will supply browsable song clips to the mobile video editor.
Adobe is partnering with Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group to add a catalog of licensed song clips to Premiere mobile. Adobe describes the feature as coming soon and caps a single track at 60 seconds inside an edit. Users can search by artist or track, filter by genre and duration, bookmark favorites, and browse label-curated collections.
Premiere mobile and Premiere Pro on desktop already ship with royalty-free music libraries, but editors must import licensed audio by hand. The partnership aims to make recognizable music easier to drop into mobile edits and to help Adobe compete with rivals such as CapCut. Adobe has not named the artists included in the catalog.
For builders and operators, licensed music shortens the path from rough cut to publishable clip inside a single app. Templates paired with music remove a manual licensing step for social teams that produce high volumes of short video. Search, filters, and bookmarks turn music selection into a repeatable workflow instead of an external search.
Adobe says the licensed library is coming soon and will let users export finished videos in Premiere mobile and post them to licensed social platforms. Adobe has not confirmed whether the catalog will also reach Premiere Pro on desktop. No artists or release date have been announced.

- Adobe will let Premiere mobile users add up to 60 seconds of a licensed track to a video.
