Feature Requests

Just like I can share a link to a static Lightroom Album, I would like to share a web link to a Smart Album. Currently there is no way to do so.

Add virtual copy feature from desktop app to mobile

Currently, if you try to share a photo to the community that has been denoised or upscaled with Lightroom’s AI denoiser or upscaler, it gives you an error and says that it is not yet supported. Seems like a pretty easy thing to add support for it, but I could be wrong. 

Native FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) Filter for Pattern, Texture, and Moiré RemovalI am writing to address a critical, long-standing gap in Lightroom’s toolset that has remained unresolved for decades: the lack of a native FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) filter.As a photo restorer and long-time Creative Cloud user, I frequently work with archives where physical paper textures—such as "silk," "honeycomb," or linen finishes—create repetitive patterns that severely degrade scan quality. While Lightroom has made incredible leaps with AI-powered Denoise and Generative Remove, these tools still struggle to distinguish between high-frequency noise and the structural, mathematical patterns of paper textures and digital moiré.The Problem: Currently, to remove periodic patterns or heavy moiré interference, we are forced to export files to Photoshop and rely on outdated, third-party 8-bit plugins or complex manual workflows. The current "Moiré" slider in Lightroom is often insufficient for deep textu

In Lightroom Mobile I desperately need a proper camera profile management option, that allows for hiding and deleting of entire profile groups.   In my editing workflow I rely heavily on custom profiles (not to be confused with presests) and over time I imported quite a lot of them - most of which I do not use anymore.    Now in Lightroom CC Desktop (not to be confused with Lightroom Classic) one can only (but at least) hide profile groups. Even if I prefered an option to delete an entire group at once as well - going through hundreds or even thousands of individual profiles deleting them via right-click isn't really an option for me - this allows me to only show the profile groups I use on a regular basis and keep my workflow simple.   In Lightoom Mobile on the other hand, there is no way to hide or delete entire profile groups (yet alone single profiles) and neither is the information about which profiles are beeing hidden in Lightroom CC Desktop beeing synch

At the moment the panel on both Lr and LrC is basic and lacks functionality that users would expect in today's world. Renaming, manual organization, and overall refinement. With the rise of LUTs and profiles like https://lumenaryvision.com/ this is badly needed - especially for users who use both LRs on multiple devices and/or create their own profiles using Color Checker cards. Users cannot currently delete these or ensure they’re shared properly between apps. 

I need a specific aspect ratio for my photos. And the lack of a way to input that ratio into the iPad version of Lightroom is a HUGE hassle.   Can we please have a way to use numbers to create the perfect aspect ratio when cropping? 

Just like you can add rulers and grids via the view settings in illustrator and Premiere Pro, I’d like this to be added in Lightroom Cloud too. It’s really helpful when having to retouch commercial products and such for use on websites. Please & Thx

I am so tired of adobe not listening to what we want. And I’m even more tired of adobe not implementing the most basic functionality.  PLEASE let us input aspect ratios with numbers! This can’t possibly be too much to ask.Been paying for years and years and still have to put up with lack of features that already exist in Classic and this one is a small one too. It feels bad, Adobe.

iPad has become my default device for editing in Lightroom. Since Denoise was introduced, though, iPad has become less useful to me until files have been denoised.Having denoise occur in the cloud would solve this issue. Adding other processes to the cloud such as Merge and Generative Upscale would make iPad even more useful for editing with Lightroom.

I’d like to compare 2 photos side by side in Lightroom Mobile (on iPhone), but there’s no way to do that. Also, when you swipe from one photo to another, it would be great to have an option that if you click on the side instead of swiping, you go to the next photo without a transition, which would do the same as clicking your keyboard’s arrow on PC. HashPhotos (a free app) has already did that, so I think it’s just natural that Lightroom, at the cost people pay to use it, adds the feature. It would greatly help comparing photos effectively.

I would love to be able to change the background color of the Lightroom Mobile interface while I'm editing an image. Working freelance and traveling a lot and commuting, I use my iPad a lot to make adjustments so I can save time. Several of my jobs have required me to have backgrounds close to white but without being white (specifically e-commerce photos). Even though I'm using the clipping mask to see my white and black points, it would still be nice to have a white background during those projects to make sure I don't make my models look like they're floating in the middle of nowhere. It would be one more step I could get done before even getting to the studio! Thanks!

It’s getting more and more useful to use LR mobile with the iPads Pro power.But i don’t understand why the “copy” and “paste” setting is sitting behind the submenu (three dots menu).Please just give us two buttons to copy / paste in the edit window without clicking every for each photo an extra menu.With a keyboard it is pretty useful top use the Keyboard shortcuts, but with the keyboard we lose the perfect touch and pen option.Just these to button to copy / paste the edits faster would be super cool.Cheers!

It would be nice if I can select lens profiles on the Lightroom mobile app. (For mount adapter users)

I would like an option for adding a watermark AND a border to an image when exporting. This is already a feature that's available on Lightroom mobile for android so I don't see why it can't also be added to iOS

I still have my old iPad 7 and it has a previous version of Lightroom that still utilizes full screen crop mode. When it was taken away, i figured it would come back in a future update as a 'new feature'. The mobile app is the very reason I started using Adobe products. Since the removal of full screen crop, I've had to spend upwards of 5-10 minutes, sometimes, trying to crop my images properly.  Honestly, I don't know why I have to request such a simple feature that we already had while, instead, getting magic wands that do nothing for professionals. If this is too difficult of a task, could you at least completely black out the shadowed edges AND remove the thick white corners?   

Feature request: Display live auto-selected shutter speed and ISO in Lightroom camera In the Lightroom camera (Pro mode) shutter speed and ISO can each be set to either Auto or a specific value. Current behaviour:If I set ISO manually, the interface shows the shutter speed the camera selects. If I set shutter speed manually, the interface shows the ISO the camera selects. However, when both ISO and shutter speed are set to Auto, neither value is shown. The selected values are also not shown when adjusting exposure compensation. This means that when using full Auto exposure it is not possible to see what shutter speed or ISO the camera is choosing before taking the photo. Please display the live metered shutter speed and ISO even when both are set to Auto, updating continuously as the meter changes. These are fundamental exposure parameters that most physical cameras display at all times. An even better implementation would be to display and lock the metered exposure values when the shu

I have several collections in Lightroom Classic on my desktop computer that are sorted in a custom order and sync to Lightroom Mobile. The order displays correctly in LR Mobile app on both my iPhone and iPad. But when I want to view the pictures on the LR app on apple tv, the sort order is not correct, even when i select "custom" on TV screen option next to the photos,   Any idea how to fix this? Thanks.

The restriction seems arbitrary.  We should be able to do it.  Same with “Recently Added”  

As seems to be typical of Adobe, they will implement a “feature” that completely breaks things used previously. In Adobe Lightroom, I would like to request the “feature” of filenames in the custom filename field of the export settings to carry over the history of the most recently used name. This feature I am requesting is how this has worked for years, until the most recent “update”. It would be nice to not have to competely retype or copy and paste every time I export.  While you are at it, it would be a nice new feature to have a choice of custom set phrases I can click to “paste” what I would normally type in. IE: “set x” “item x” “branded” “ unbranded” etc. for use in a setting where one shoot will yield multiple photo sets to export with specific naming. It would also be thoughtful to have a toggle to allow LR to automatically add an incremented number in these custom phrases. 

After loading the photos from your SD card in the app, there should be a way to display the ratings selected in cameras. This way you would be able to select to import those photos you already know are good for work and development. I always rate the best photos I took in camera before start editing, because this way I can import them to Lightroom and save time working only in those I’ve ranked. 

Applying more than one watermark simultaneously during a single export pass will be usefull in Adobe Lightroom Classic. Alternatives like plugin LR/Mogrify 2, needs rosetta on Mac and rosetta will be phased out soon.

I know that Lightroom allows me to move Presets to a different Group / Folder on an individual basis, but I have hundreds of Presets spread across multiple Groups.   I would like the ability to select multiple Presets to be able to move them to a different folder in bulk.

Hi there. I'm left-handed and i would like to use de Lightroom Mobile app as a left handed person, so i need to put the adjustment bar and another features to de left side of the screen of my tablet. Can anyone help me with that?     {Thread title edited by moderator}

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.
