Feature Requests

I don't know why the iOS app doesn't have this feature, or if I just can't find it (though I don't think that's the case, since I've dug through all the options). I like using color labels to create subgroups, and I really miss that in the iOS app.

The current vectorscope UI as it exists now doesn't seem to complement its intended function as well as it should. There's probably many improvements that could be done here but here are two that I've identified:It needs to be able to be larger. Unlike the histogram where often the rough shape is all you need to see, and small details are still quite visible at smaller scales, the vectorscope displays a lot of very dense, very granular information that is nearly impossible to see if it's not a sufficient size. ACR has an option to pop out the histogram and vectorscope into a hovering overlay which can be resized significantly larger. LR should either copy this or at least add the option to pop out just the vectorscope into an overlay that can be made larger. A great feature of the vectorscope is that you can cut out all the unnecessary bits and look at just the colors of a specific masked area. Unfortunately you can only see that while a mask is actively selected in the masking panel.

Be able to add a photo of something (a product or person) and have Adobe create a background and text for the created Thumbnail. AI involvement would be a must to help create the theme and background. The font of the text would have to match the theme of the thumbnail. Make it easier for content creators to create thumbnails.

I’m looking into Lightroom CC Desktop’s accessibility features for a friend of mine with a tremor, for whom using the mouse is difficult. Preferences > Interface > Accessibility Mode > Keyboard NavigationThe above setting allows navigation throughout the program and adjusting sliders using keyboard keys. There are a few things that still need a mouse, such as non-AI masks – fair enough.Con: Using the commands for navigation is surprisingly hard! There are no left/right arrow-type keys to move in and out of sub-menus or adjacent panels. When cycling through the panels, the outside edge should be highlighted – currently you have to look for the first contained item that is outlined. That is hard to spot. When tabbing through things, some items are accessed out of order or it’s confusing due to the layout of panels and subpanels. I haven’t figured out how to reset a slider. When there is a pop-up menu, the outlines are below the pop-up. I find the focus selection method particula

Please add custom horizontal and vertical guides to the Crop tool in Lightroom Desktop (cloud-based). I’d like to drag guides into the crop frame or enter an exact position as a percentage of the frame’s width or height.The guides should stay anchored to the crop frame as I move or resize it. For example, when cropping a series of portraits to 4:5, I could place one horizontal guide 15% down from the top for the top of the head and another at 40% for the eyes. I could then reuse those guides across the series so the eyes and heads line up when the finished photos are viewed side by side.For evenly spaced guides, I’d also like to set the number of rows and columns independently. For example, I could divide the frame into four rows and five columns using the same principle as the Rule of Thirds overlay.Reusable crop guides would make it easier to keep the framing consistent across a whole series of portraits or product photos.

Przydała by się opcja w lightroom na PC Zastosuj z poprzedniego tak jak jest w opcji mobilnej. bardzo mi tego brakuje. 

When do we expect feature parity. Specifically: Removal - Reelections, People and Dust.

I use LR Desktop/Cloud purely as a place to showcase photos that have already been populated with metadata and edited in Classic. It would be extremely desirable if my painstakingly filled-in location metadata were not automatically replaced. Particularly since a) the language of the entry is changed: my place named in Germany are filled in in German, etc, and in the cloud they are all converted to English, the language in which I use the program and b) Desktop/Cloud changes all of the 3rd level locations in Germany, France, Italy and Spain (could be more, I’m not sure) from the “State” to the “Region”. Kind of like changing “California” to “Stanislaus County”. Not desired behavior.

After  the update, the option to sort images based on whether they have been edited or not is no longer available. On local folder. Please fix this; it is very important when exporting images and editing 1000 photo 

Can we get iPad mini like controls when the iPhone Duo is open please? It would be so cool to have the controls on the right side while the main picture is edited in the center. The current mobile lightroom controls stacks everything in the center which ruins the user experience during wide screen mode. Also, I am pretty sure that the a20 is more than capable, paired with 12 gigs of ram to handle ai denoise on device and it would be so cool to get that here and on iPad mini

Please add option for “preserve camera info and location” when exporting images using “add border and share”.  Other options such as “watermark” would also be appreciated.

When creating a Smart Album, the only boolean operator when using different search rules is AND. Other options typically available for computer searches are OR and NOT. This is what I would like from a smart album in LrD:People = John DoeORKeyword = John Doe However, this is the only option available now:People = John DoeANDKeyword = John Doe Attached is a screenshot showing AND being the only way to create a Smart Album when there is more than one rule.  

I photograph large events that require multiple folders and galleries. For example, one event can include 3,000+ photos organized into 5-6 folders, with 3-4 albums in each.I edit entirely offline with syncing paused because Lightroom becomes extremely slow or crashes when handling thousands of photos simultaneously.I'd love the ability to choose which individual albums sync and which remain paused when it’s time to do so. This would allow me to upload completed galleries to customers while keeping other albums paused until they're ready.Currently, I have to wait hours for everything to sync before I can start delivering photos. Individual album sync controls would make this process significantly more efficient.

Can we get halation simulation into Lightroom? Specifically Lightroom on iPad, but all versions should get it.  Film photography is big right now. Lots of people love the look of film. But being Lightroom users means we miss out on some aspects of film because LR does not have the necessary tools.  Halation is something we need to open other apps for and we need to know a bit about using layers and blend modes and stuff like that. Therefor it would be nice to just have this in the app. Here is what I’m thinking:A slider for strength/brightness.A slider for spread/area.A slider for sensitivity. Meaning a slider that adjusts what part of the photo gets halation. Will it be only the edges around very brightest parts? Or will it be more sensitive so that it applies halation to less bright parts too? (Hope that description made sense.)And lastly a way to change the color of the halation.  (My native language is not English, so if I made spelling or syntax errors, I’m sorry.)

When having installed Lightroom or LC on a new computer or device, I would like to be able to choose which items start downloading from the cloud first. Instead of a quick swap, I am currently waiting for 35000+ items to sync before I can likely access the singular collection I am trying to work on.

The Lightroom Mobile camera needs to be improved further. The camera should have an HDR shooting mode with more settings and controls, and Night Mode and Portrait Mode photo-taking features could be added to the camera.*

Are they ever going to make it possible to tether to an iPad? I connected my z6ii to my iPad Pro last night the images come up really fast on the import screen you need to zoom to full size individually. This seems like the ability to tether to an iPad in Lightroom mobile would be a pretty simple software update fir Adobe. And a really awesome feature for us 

Bug Report

FYI I'm a real person that used ChatGPT to write this request because I don't want to spend a bunch of time doing it, but wanted to let you know I'm a real user!    Dear Adobe Team,   Please add Collaborative Proofing to Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Desktop. Right now, this feature is only available in Lightroom Web, making the proofing process unnecessarily complicated for photographers who rely on Classic for professional workflow management.   I frequently send proofs to models so they can select their favorite images, but the current workflow is frustratingly inefficient: 1. I have to sync images to Lightroom Cloud, which isn’t ideal for my local storage workflow. 2. Then, I have to switch to Lightroom Web just to send the proofing link. 3. Once the model makes their selections, I have to go back into Lightroom Web to create a new album that syncs to Classic—because the selections don’t automatically transfer. 4. After that, I have to manually move the select

Photography is about telling a story; Lightroom only manages photos.After a trip, I might reduce 1,000 photos to 20 highlights in an album. The problem with this is that many of the discarded images contribute important context and narrative.  Too many ‘secondary photos’ and an album grows size and becomes too big.A "Story Album" feature, where a single photo, one of the 20 picks, can link to 5-6 supporting images would allow photographers to tell the story behind a moment.  It could do this without overwhelming viewers with hundreds of photos.Instead of a flat album of 20 photos or an album of 120 photos, people could explore 20 great photos, each with its own story in the 5 or 6 supporting photos.Adobe Portfolio already provides a story-driven presentation, but that’s moving to a different platform.  I'd love to see a lightweight version of this concept integrated directly into Lightroom Cloud.Over time, this would help transform Lightroom from a photo management tool into a richer r

Please, please, please add the color calibration tool into Lightroom mobile!     I've mostly converted to editing on the iPad, but darn... just can't do without that tool for setting a global style to my images.

When exporting an original downloaded image from the lightroom iOS app with a border I always get a file with a size of less than 1MB. If I share or export without a border then the file size is as shot usually inexcess of 15MB+ (see images below)   There are no options to increase or change the image quality settings for border settings in the app. (tap on share - add border and share - tap blue share button - Save Image) no options or cog as you get with other share or download options.   How do I export with a border to my mobile device and have a decent quality file that doesn't pixelate when viewed on bigger screens?   I really don't want to have to export each image into Adobe Express or Photoshop Mobile just to add a border to images for some of my SM feeds.

I have two feature requests related to color grading.One wheel Currently, color grading is done on three separate wheels for each tone (highs, mids, shadows).  I think it would be very useful to have an option to use 1 wheel to place all three grading points (like how DXO photolab does it).  This would be very useful when grading using specific patterns (Y, triangle, line, etc). Pre-made pattern options If the one wheel feature is implemented, having a dropdown where we can choose a specific pattern (Y, triangle, etc) would be very useful.  I could choose triangle, for example, and the three grade points would be placed onto the wheel for me.  I could then turn the triangle to find the right mix of hues, and all three would turn at the same time, keeping the triangle shape.  Then I could adjust the saturation of each independtly to taste.  The dropdown could include all the color grading patterns that the adobe color palette site has (I think they are called color harmonies), and it c

put the watermark option on the web page for Lightroom cc, I have the option on my ipad but not on my MacBook.
