Feature Requests

I want the filter to display keywords starting with two or three cxharacters I type. Currently the filter seems to change to displayed list to always limit the displayed list to the last typed character..

Please add a Zoom-in functionality in the 'Review for Import' process   Reasoning: When using the 'Review for Import' dialogue to import only selected photos all candidates for import are shown together in very small size with no option to zoom into the individual photos.  The decision whether to import a given photo is, however, oftentimes driven by the details of the photo that cannot be seen properly without zooming into the photo. Thus, a zoom-in option is needed to allow a meaningful review to import.

I hope adobe can add RGB values under the histogram like lightroom classic has. I dont know if anyone has any workarounds for this, but I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has a solution for this. The RGB values would be great for balancing the colours. It would also be nice if they could add some sort of pipette so you can add a point of where you want to check the RGB values. So that you can lock in where you want to adjust, and then adjust it from that point. Have seen a few of these requests… some from a few years ago!… so I am not really sure if they will ever add this, but one can hope…

Add color calibration to Lightroom mobile this is a crucial thing that can assist many with color grading on the go or for those who exclusively edit on mobile

I have no interest in the AI assistant or any AI features. Please consider adding a toggle to disable all of these from the interface (see Lightroom mobile). Apple do this with “apple intelligence”.  Many photographers are opposed to AI in photography because it’s taking away livelihoods. Please consider adding this toggle. 

Under “Distraction Removal,” the desktop version of Lightroom has automatic detection of dust spots (and other things, but that’s not why I’m writing in):This is an extremely useful time-saving feature.Unfortunately I do most of my editing on the go on an iPad Pro and these edits don’t transfer over to your photos when you view them on the iPad version of Lightroom. You’re invited to “update AI edits,” where the app tells you essentially that there’s a version mismatch between the canonical photo (w/ dust removed) and the one your iPad can load (because it doesn’t support dust removal), and tells you your only choice is to take away the dust removal:This is really bad for users and not how cloud software should work. My iPad has an M4 in it; it’s more powerful in performance terms than my desktop computer. At a minimum you should allow read-only loading of dust removal on the iPad. Please implement this on the iPad!

I switched my workstation from Windows to Linux and Adobe Lightroom is the only app I can't use now. It would be nice if Lightroom had native support including GPU acceleration on Linux. I would love to keep using it instead of migrating to something else. 

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

Current search at Adobe Exchange for LrC plugin is over loaded with thousands of presets packages which does not allow users to find other practical LrC plugins or functional extensions.Add filter for Adobe Exchange to hide all the preset/presets packages, so we can explore some real useful plugins. Current filter options, and categories are not possible to solve this, as there are presets listed in all the categories, swamping rest of the plugins. https://exchange.adobe.com/apps/browse/cc?listingType=plugins&page=1&product=LTRM&sort=RELEVANCE

Hi, I have an issue with Lightroom (installed from the adobe cloud).  Search is broken for me all the time when searching for words in file names. I can't get it to come back with any results for anything.  It says "Oh no! A blackhole"

Hi, I just have a quick question, i got the iphone 14 Pro today and i have noticed there is no way to take a 48 MP image from it within LRM, they are 12mp at the moment even in DNG, so i was wondering if the full resolution of 48PM from the main camera be possible in a future release??Thank you for your time.    Stephane

Please add the ability to save and recall custom white balance settings in the Lightroom Mobile camera, especially in Pro mode. For accurate and consistent color, I use a neutral gray card to set white balance before shooting.[Moved to Lightroom ecosystem (Cloud-based) by a moderator］

I create photo books with lots of text and photos. To align text and photos I most of the time have “Grid Snap” set to “Cells”. But sometimes there is a need to place something a bit beside an already existing frame and then one has to set “Grid Snap” to “Off” and when done set it back to “Cells”.What I would like to see is something like press “Shift” while using cursor to move the cell in question. The “Shift + “Cell move” set the “Grid Snap” temporarily to “Off”. When the move is done and “Shift” is released the “Grid Snap” is returned to “Cells".This functionality would improve the workflow a lot in the Book module.

Maybe a sync button, or a way to export the presets into a file and then import them to the desktop version

Lightroom for Android supports HDR editing in all HDR capable google pixels aside from the Pixel 10 series, even though the screen technology is the same as what was found in the previous 9 series which is supported. Could you add this feature to these newer devices? 

Adobe needs to include IPTC information in the file INFO in Lr CC. This is the industry standard for file information and a requirement of most photo agencies, so why isn't it in CC? Cloud storage is great but without IPTC it's not of much use to those submitting to an agency.

I pay for a subscription mainly to access community presets in the recommended tab. You changed this section to no longer include the sub categories (dark, warm, cinematic, etc). No idea why you’d remove that. Without it I won’t have a need for a paid subscription any longer 

When naming a person Lightroom pops up a face and asks if it is the same person. The picture shown is just the face, and it is not very clear or else there would not be any question.The choices are Yes / no. please add a way to view the complete picture(s) of the face in question as part of the choices. Now I have to say NO then search for the picture to be sure.

I bought iPad Pro, but I can't add captions to multiple photos at once, something I can do on Samsung devices 

still no super resolution for the iPad mobile versions this is completely unacceptable. 

Please add multplay subject and removed in one picture. This is very annoying on picture one subject automatic sleact. Please This option add next update.it is requared very much. Please add this futcher i strongly insist.

Dear Adobe Lightroom Team, I am writing to complain about a long-standing issue with Lightroom Mobile on Android: imported photographs are displayed from the last shot to the first shot by default. For photographers working through an actual shoot, this is backwards. If I photograph a sequence from image 001 through image 500, I expect Lightroom to show me 001 first and allow me to work forward through the shoot chronologically. Instead, Lightroom shows the newest photograph first, forcing me to select Reverse Order. The bigger problem is that Lightroom does not provide a proper global preference to make chronological, oldest-to-newest sorting my permanent default. I have been dealing with this behaviour for a very long time, and having to repeatedly reverse the order is an unnecessary frustration in an otherwise excellent mobile photography workflow. I specifically use Lightroom Mobile/Cloud and do not want Lightroom Classic to be the solution. Lightroom Mobile should be capable of re

Your latest update which I wish I hadn't updated to has removed the choose your best photo feature on mobile Android devices. It wasn't perfect, but it was a good place to start my editing process.

It would be great to have an option in Lightroom to use the metadata Title field as the exported filename.For photographers who publish images online, this would make it much easier to use meaningful, SEO-friendly filenames directly from Lightroom, without having to rename files after export. I think it could save quite a bit of time in many workflows.

(feature request for  as per reply)Right now, if my display isn’t 1000 nits or whatever, HDR highlights above the available headroom are simply clipped, which makes the image look ugly.I can understand why this might be useful in Edit mode for a more “accurate” view, but in View mode I think the image should be tone-mapped to fit the display.Interestingly, Lightroom for web already works this way: when viewing pictures, the highlights are properly compressed (at least on Chrome), while Edit mode looks the same as the native apps and remains clipped.It would be nice to be able to properly view HDR photos on displays that don’t have a bazillion nits of brightness, including EDR iPads and MacBooks (and other displays, including Windows devices) at high brightness, where the available HDR headroom can be quite small.
