Collection synching / Lightroom Mobile is a great addition to Lightroom 5.4. Please extend this functionality to Smart Collections as well.

How about instead of trying to undo or review just have option of turning off certain mobile features based on collections or all collections. For example turning off the option to change flags or rating on a collection. I personally don't use the flag option on mobile as I do all that work on my PC, however I find I occasionally change the flag myself or showing someone photos on my mobile device they change the flags by accident too when flicking through photos.

Just an idea.

This would add so much value on the mobile app

Just wanted to chime in and say that all my collections are smart collections as well. For me it makes sense that when a pick flag or whatever is changed, causing the picture to no longer be a part of the collection, undo will be available for as long as the application is running, whenever the undo stack is full or what else triggers changes in the undo functionality. I haven't yet tried the iPad version yet, so I apologize for not knowing how other things regarding undo is implemented there.

Obvious it need to sync and if you change a flag in the mobile it needs to change also in LR, but in respect of the non destrutive nature of LR I suggest to create a virtual copy of the original smart collection. Thanks

Consistent with the comments of others, virtually all of my Collections are Smart Collections. I vote for Adobe giving the highest priority to enabling synchronization of Smart Collections to LR Mobile. It is otherwise all but useless to me, and this is not an exaggeration.

Just spent the last hour trying to get a Smart Collection to sync.

This really is a critical limitation to LR mobile. Like many of the folks above, I do not manually manage my collections, instead relying on keywords, star ratings, colors, and flags to categorize and rank.

I won't really find much use in LR mobile until we can sync Smart Collections. Having an "undo" option in case you accidentally "un-pick" something would be great, but I would consider that a bonus. Thank you, Adobe!

Argh...just installed LR Mobile....wondered why I wasn't able to synch any of my collections....all of them are "Smart" so that would be why!

Would definitely like to see this implemented as soon as possible please. Great "first pass" at LR on the iPad....can't wait to see how you guys make it grow. Thanks!
