Feature Requests

Can we please have a duplicate file/photo option in Lightroom mobile? 

add the ability to add loot to lightroom mobile in cube format 

It would be really useful to be able to "update" versions of edits rather than just save new ones. I often save a version, try something different and then want to update the saved version. At the moment I have to create a new version and then delete the old version. 

By default, people are not able to download pictures that are shared with them online via a browser. So if I have numerous catalogues I want to share with someone, I currently have to go in to the setting each time and change it from the default so that it is allowed. I propose that people should be able to change their own default sharing settings (since it's very likely that different individual users will have different requirements).

Gostaria de girar várias fotos simultaneamente pelo Lightroom Mobile.

(Lr v8.2)   Den Einstellungsmöglichkeiten für den Bildexport (iOS: "Kopie auf Gerät speichern" / macOS: "Exportieren, Benutzerdefinierte Einstellungen") fehlt die Option, einem Foto einen frei definierbaren Rahmen hinzufügen zu können. Frei definierbar meint: Rahmenbreite und Rahmenfarbe.   Bei der entsprechenden Funktion in der iOS-App ("Rahmen hinzufügen und teilen...") fehlen dagegen jegliche weiteren Einstellungsmögichkeiten wie Wasserzeichen hinzufügen, Bildgrösse, Qualität usw.   Deshalb der Vorschlag: Die Möglichkeit, Rahmen hinzufügen zu können in die erstgenannte Exportfunktion integrieren, damit für ein gerahmtes Bild alle weiteren Einstellungsmöglichkeiten zur Verfügung stehen. Heute muss ich für den Bildrahmen immer Drittsoftware verwenden, da meine veröffentlichten Fotos immer ein Wasserzeichen enthalten müssen.

I've made a fake light leak in Lightroom using masks. To get it looking as good as I can, I had to use several masks and several modifications (additions and subtractions) on each mask.  But now I can't move the intended effect around without moving each maks and each piece of each mask separately. Which makes putting them all in a different location in the photo, hard. It's hard because there are many things to move, meaning many tasks to do, and it's hard because it's hard to line things up the way I originally intended.  So it would be nice to be able to select several things and move them at the same time. 

This is a feature request for Lightroom for iPad. It would be great if I could apply the "auto" edit function to all selected photos (or all photos in a particular album, or all photos in a particular import), rather than having to manually apply the "auto" editing tool for each one, on Lightroom for iPad.  I understand this can be done on the desktop version of Lightroom, but it cannot be done on the iPad version.     I travel with an iPad, not a laptop, and I prefer to apply "auto" edit to my shots and then work from there with my own tweaks, rather than starting from a raw file or jpeg and manually editing from scratch. For example, I shot 6000 images during a glorious week of travel in Kenya this past week, and I am at the airport right now with my iPad keen to cull them down and edit the best ones during the long flight home. It takes forever to go image by image.  I could probably get the whole job done in one plane flight if Lightroom had this feature.  

I shoot wide open a lot, and so I see a lot of chromatic aberration. I would love to see this tool in mobile, as it would save a lot of trips back to the computer.With this tool I would love to see what you have on the computer plus a better way to "stack samples" with the desktop you are only able to grab 1 hue range, and I've found this just doesn't work that often. I want to be able to grab once and then grab again if I still see it. Close to what you do with the shift key, but being able to have more then one sample with the green or pink hues.I would also love to see better detection in Lightroom, so I'm not doing this in the first place.

In order to more effectively rate and flag photographs based on how well focused the image is on the eyes of the subject, I suggest a feature that would allow you to scroll through your images while initially reviewing them, and automatically shift the zoomed area over the face of the subject.

撮影した写真は一旦すべてクラウドに接続されたアルバムに取り込むのですが、選定や編集を終えたあとにローカルにアーカイブする際、作例としていつでも見れるようにしておきたいので全てではなく「フラグなし」とか「星なし」のものをアーカイブみたいにできたらものすごく便利だと思うんですがどうでしょうか・・・。

Real-time, live refresh for shared Lightroom albums would be ideal – especially for live event photographers with cloud-based workflows. This would allow clients to see newly uploaded images appear instantly, without needing to manually refresh the webpage.   If this isn’t feasible, a popup such as “This album has been updated. Please refresh to see the latest images.” would still improve the experience.

I have tailored the camera to take photos using a specific set of options - eg. DNG, grid lines, 16:9 etc How do I save this as my default? Thank you.         Title edited by Moderator for clarity purposes.

It would be really useful for me if there was a list of locally stored albums available in the Local Storage settings section. I use folders heavily and use multiple devices so it's easy for me to lose track of what albums are locally stored without drilling down in each folder to find what is stored. A simple list in the settings with an option to remove would make my life a lot easier.

It dives me crazy - that I can´t see the same topics in Lightroom as in fileinfo in photoshop. I am missing important fields like, "instructions" (always writes the terms of use fore each image here), "headline" and its very confusing that "person show" field also is missing. How is it possible to change that ? THANKS A LOT Jakob

Hi,Please could the recipient of a supplied Collection link be able to download full res files (if held on the server). This could be an option in Mobile and WebThanks

Seems that double tapping to zoom in Lightroom Mobile on iPad Pro is inconsistent and never yields actual 100% image pixel to display pixel view. Initial zoom factor appears to depend on actual image file resolution and is about 75% zoom with image files from my D500, but closer to 50% zoom with files from my D850. Repeatedly double tapping eventually yields something closer to 200% zoom for image files from both cameras. I’ve seen a few posts dating back a year or more on this subject and none have been answered. Are there implementational issues with iOS and/or certain mobile devices with adding this functionality? Needless to say an accurate 100% pixel to pixel view is a very important feature to be able to consistently assess image sharpness/detail and noise.

Hello everyone, Why can you not implement the same settings / options for Lightroom (Lr) to Photoshop (Ps) that you have for Lightroom Classic (LrC) to Photoshop (Ps)? I understand that you try to male Lr an easier option, but I don’t think it would be that bad to have options.   Example: In LrC I can define if I want to use PSD or TIFF for the files that were edited in Ps, in Lr the only option is TIFF.   In LrC I can rework an existing PSD file, when I see there are more changes needed. In Lr the system will create always a new file, after multiple changes I have multiple files and have to delete the versions that I don’t need.   As soon as I edit a file in Ps the filename will be changed, after 3 rounds I have 3 times the text „-Edit“ in my filename. In LrC I can define how the new filename should look like.   Please contact me if you have any questions, Thanks Kind regards Ralf   I use MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2017, Intel Core i7 / 16GB / 500GB SSD) with macOS

I would like to propose an improvement to Lightroom Mobile that enhances the flexibility of working with masks. Specifically, adding the ability to copy masks to a clipboard and apply them to other layers, both for blending and subtraction purposes. This feature would significantly increase the creative possibilities and provide users with more flexibility when designing graphical content.   By implementing this functionality, Lightroom Mobile would not only streamline the workflow but also cater to advanced users who seek precision and efficiency. It would empower creators to develop more complex and intricate designs directly on their mobile devices, making the app even more versatile.   Despite the remarkable advancements brought by the new AI features in Lightroom Mobile, which have elevated photo editing to a new level, there is still room for improvement when it comes to the flexibility of working with masks.   Masks are one of the main reasons I appreciate Lightro

It is very useful, especially for street photography, to be able to quickly open the camera without face id unlock and so on. Just press camera control button while getting the phone out of the pocket, and you are ready to shoot. Many different iOS camera apps already implement it, but I find Lightroom camera the best out now, especially with instant upload to the cloud.

I tried finding a thread for this subject because I cant believe I am first to ask...so if it has already been asked be nice...I tried 🙂   In Lightroom Desktop it would be nice to be able to duplicate Smart Albums to simplify organizing of photos.  This can be done easily in LRC but I do not believe the functionality exists in LR.   A simple example of how I would use it.  I take photos in a variety of subjects...landscape, my dogs, astrophotography, Infrared, you get the idea...  I was trying to basically create one album per subject and then create smart albums to say sort them by year or by camera or any number of items.  Many of the Smart Albums are very similar to one another with only small tweaks between them...it would be so much easier to be able to duplicate them and modify as to not have to start from scratch each time.   Just a thought...

It occurs to me that many of my students, and I myself are now equipped to take too many photos to keep even a fraction of, yet there is a sense of loss in leaving nineteen out of twenty behind. It might be appreciable and lead to less sense of loss while using the software if one has the ability to create a single mp4 reel from every photo taken in a day. It could be set as a default or as a single click option on each import. They could be set to jpeg small or large. It would add only a modicum of time to the import as JPEGs are being genereted on import already. There is obviously a difference between a documentary outproduct and an artistic one, and this would mitigate the tension between thses two impulses. The artist will feel more free to eliminate chaff if they know that the particular documentary capacity of every photo is accounted for. That artistic mindset wiould be liberated to fearlessly focus on what photos speak singularly. I know you have been toying with using ai to a

I share very large online Albums with other people, but I would love for them not to always get the same pictures all the time. I would like the option to have a "random sort".   This would also be VERY useful for when I do a slide show, the pictures are not progressing in the same order all the time.

For Desktop and Web:  Post directly to Instagram from Lightroom (new) through a Connection.  This would save so much time!  Nice to be ale to do it from Mobile but would be great for the, more common, Desktop workflow as well.

For once, the iPad version has something useful that the laptop version does not! When importing photos to the iPad version, the hundreds/thousands of photos on the import screen are broken up by date/grouped by date. This allows the user to toggle all the photos just for each day they wish to have imported. With the laptop version, while they are in capture order, all the photos are in one continuous field, not divided by day. Users must toggle 'Select All' is they want all of them, or do the usual click the first, the find the last and shift-click it, then toggle the check mark. Having what could be hundreds or thousands of phtoos on the import screen organised by day makes this process much simpler, especially when travelling and accumulating photos each day. Even better would be allowing users to toggle day or day+hour for really intense photo sessions.
