Feature Requests

I do a lot of product photography using the iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 15.1.1 and Lightroom for Mobile version 7.0.2 176DFF/67.   I use the "Select Subject" feature in the Masking Tool and it does an excellent job selecting the subject, but I'd like the ability to save it with a transparent background.    Thanks for considering this suggestion.     

I would like to be able to add a 2.35:1 or custom set crop ratio to the Lightroom crop feature on mobile.

When moving any adjustment slider it would be useful to have a method of moving the slider in a more accurate or slower way. This feature would be similar to the hue "fine adjustments" toggle in the mask / colour mode. However, I imagine a more unified integration without any additional toggle. I have come up with a few ideas in which this could be achieved.   Option 1: The artist would touch the slider knob and hold still for ca. 3 seconds. Then the slider would go into accuracy mode. If the slider is moved in under 3 seconds it would simply stay in the classic slide mode.  Option 2: The artist would double tab the knob slider to activate accuracy mode. Option 3: The accuracy mode could be linked to slider acceleration. Similar to a desktop cursor. This way the slower a user moves the less units will be adjusted.    My favourite is probably option 1 because I imagine most of the time you'd want to adjust quickly and roughly but occasionally you'd need the extr

It would be perfect if you can add the ability to specify an default export folder for exporting to iOS Photos.    

Add multiple lines to Title and Caption fields

It would be incredibly valuable to have the ability to shuffle the order of photos in Lightroom Mobile, Lightroom for Apple TV, and published web albums. This feature would enhance the viewing experience, especially for shared albums, allowing viewers to see photos in a dynamic and non-linear way. A shuffle option could be a game-changer for presenting work creatively and keeping the experience fresh for repeat viewers.   Please consider adding this functionality across these platforms to make Lightroom even more versatile for users!  

Idea: Generate/export PDF contact sheets directly in Lightroom Desktop   Why? Negates the need to have to export files, which wastes time. Also negates the need to use Bridge. It's an obvious feature that photographers use with almost every job. It was a capability that was available in Lightroom previously.

Having information at our fingertips is the beauty of working digitally. However, incomplete information is rather frustrating, especially when we know it is 'there'.   I've requested having crop size added to the Info panel — but still no go!   Having camera metadata is very helpful for those who rely on it. Aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and focal length are all helpful, but they are just the start. I could really benefit from having 'EV' shown, for example. Lr is mature product and being used in place of Lr Classic by many of us. We can see EV in Lr Classic. Bring it to Lr as well!   Solution 1: Simply make the Lr Info panel more similar to the Lr Classic Liibrary right panel. Solution 2: Under Settings, allow users to toggle the camera data they want shown. We know the data is there and Lr is basically database-driven, so allowing us to see more EXIF data would be a huge help and time saver.

When picking and rating pictures in an album with large number of photos - A feature to provide bookmarking where you have left off while working through the culling process would really help with certain workflows.  The suggestion is to add a bookmarking option - A visual marker which can be placed at any location within the album.  Would be most useful on Mobile Lightroom and light room classic.

I'm wondering if the guided upright tool works at all on iPhone (16Pro with the latest iOS). I guess I've tried all kind of approaches for it - and only once I was able to get the guides visible. With the auto option, the result is pretty OK but when I choose the guided variant I do not get those guides - except that one-time success! So, please let me know if the function is just that buggy, or is there something I don't figure out??? Thanks!

I want to include PDF files in an online album. It appears that the only files allowed in a lightroom album are photos and videos. My rationale: Say I'm presenting my child's time in college. There are photos of course, and some short videos, but I also want to include a nice 5-page letter that a professor wrote acknowledging my child's contribution to a project. It would be really nice if someone viewing this album could scroll through that letter in an embedded PDF reader and also be able to download the PDF and read it locally if desired. An alternative I tried is Adobe Express -- it seems to have ways to convert a PDF to a group of images, but that's not really what I want. You would think Adobe (the inventor of PDFs!) would have support for this kind of thing. Is there a way to do this? If not, how can I request such a feature?

Allow me to select multiple photos and apply stars & ratings to the selected photos. Frequently I like to mark all photos as 3-stars, then filter on >= 3 stars. I then start setting photos I don't like to 2 stars to remove them from the visible set. As it is I can't mark all photos as 3 stars in one batch, I instead have to use the desktop to do it.

For some reason, despite different metadata, file names, etc. Lightroom CC seems to think photos take sequentially from the same camera have already been imported before. This is frustrating as there seems to be no way in app to make Lightroom import these "duplicates". I have tried importing directly from the camera, the CF card and from my NAS, nothing seems to stop LR from classifying these photos as duplicates. All photos are imported to a folder on the NAS with its own date of import. File names are not duplicated. Two things: 1. Does anyone have a work around for this issue and; 2. How do I make a feature request for Adobe to enable this function. I didn't have this issue in LR Classic.

Lightroom CC on the Mac allows access to external storage devices. Adobe, please allow external storage device access for Lightroom on the iPad! That would make this the perfect mobile photo solution. Right now the only option is to import the files to the iPad photo ecosystem before they can be brought into Lightroom. I have many thousands of photos on external drives (many with camera raw edits) that I would like to access directly like I can on the Mac version. 

The manual focus is an awesome feature since for some insane reason Apple decided to omit a manual focus even on the Pro model iPhones that are supposed to be for high end photo and video work.   However, the green outlines in the manual focus mode in the Lightroom Camera capture are horrendous, distracting, and usually makes me shoot out of focus because the outlines don't do a good to help job dialing in focus.   GIVE US THE ABILITY TO DISABLE THE GREEN OUTLINES PLEASE

For Lightroom (not classic) I would love the ability to create a smart album for any photos missing location information, so I can quickly identify photos that I must add location information too. 

I would like to express my interest in the ability to create books using Lightroom Mobile on my iPad. However, I am not particularly satisfied with the Blurb app due to its limited layout options. It is inconvenient to constantly switch between apps or have to export photographs.    Currently, I rely on Lightroom Classic on my M2 MacBook Pro for book creation. However, with the introduction of the iPad Pro M2, there is no longer a speed advantage to using the laptop. In situations where I am away from home and shooting, I rarely bring my MacBook along. It would be incredibly helpful to have the capability to start laying out my books during my return flight.   I kindly request the addition of Blurb book creation to the Lightroom iOS version, particularly on the iPad. If you require inspiration, I recommend taking a look at the exceptional iOS version of the desktop publishing app, Publisher by Affinity.  

Hello all,   I would like to submit a feature request for lightroom > store offline option I want to save 2and 2+ starred photos on mycomputer you have "store a copy of all "* options for caching I want to limit this to 2 and + starts I am sure a lot of people would benefit from ruled based custom caching.   Thanks, Onur  

I am deeply passionate about Lightroom! Editing both my photos and videos in Lightroom is an incredible experience for me. I have no issues with photo editing, and I can use all the tools seamlessly. However, it really upsets me that some features are disabled when editing videos.   In particular, I can’t use the masking tool, which is one of my favorite features. This tool makes a huge difference in my edits, and I would love to use it for my videos as well. Additionally, options like texture, clarity, and dehaze in the effects section are also inactive and unavailable for video editing.   Is there a way to enable these features for videos on my iPad Pro M4? Moreover, is there any chance these features will be made available for video editing in the future? I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide information and share my feedback regarding this matter.   Thank you. lightroom version v. 10.1.1

  Hello, I'm using an iPad mini7. When I use the Lightroom in portrait mode, the picture looks so small that the work is so difficult. I hope I can see the picture on top like the phone version when I use it in portrait mode, and the work panel is set to the bottom. Please.

Many often times I find my Lightroom running slow or sluggish on network package sending and receiving… It appears stalled so then I noticed these other tabs involving other peoples work which I have no interest in seeing and you are forcing this into an application that is licensed primarily for professionals so do everyone a favor and remove this feature/horrible idea from the creative cloud ecosystem and just make another platform because it does not belong in side of light room

I am using the ARM version of Lightroom. When I shoot in JPEG + RAW on my camera, Lightroom imports both formats during the batch import. Since I only want to edit the RAW images, I end up deleting all the JPEG images after importing them. This process is time-consuming and cumbersome, so I would like to be able to select the image format to import when transferring images from the camera.

Hi all,  The addition of a local tab in Lightroom cloud desktop has been a game changer, and led me to move away from Lightroom classic.  I would love to see the addition of the local tab on Lightroom mobile, allowing browsing and editing of files on external disks attached to an iPad! Cheers!

Hi all! I use an iPad (Air 5th Gen) in my workflow during photo trips. Each day, I backup the card (CFX-B) from my camera (Nikon Z8) to an external SSD and then make an initial cull and selection of images for upload/edit using Lighroom. When I add photos to Lightroom (v 10.1.1) directly from the card or camera, the image previews are a reasonable size and I have the ability to pinch zoom the previews to see which is in focus or a good composition (see screenshots below). If I try to do this from the file structure on the SSD backup (if, for example, I did not have time to cull on the day and the card had been erased for the next day's shoot), then the "add photos from files" option in Lightroom only allows small previews and does not allow zooming of the images. This makes it impossible to check which image is best for culling and uploading! Can the preview/zoom functionality of the "add photos from card/camera" please be replicated in the "add photos from file" option? Thanks!

Hi,I would love it if I could make changes, then apply them to an existing "version".  Basically overwriting what's saved as that version with the new edit.-MattPS - Your Feature Request and Bug Submission form page shows no form to fill out.https://www.adobe.com/products/wishform.html
