I ask because when you export in Lightroom CC, called "save to," the only parameter you can adjust is the pixels. Nothing else that I can see. In other versions of Lightroom you get a whole bunch of parameters to adjust, including DPI. Clients specify sometimes the settings that they want. Or another possibility is that I'm doing it wrong, and if so, could someone let me know how to export and adjust things like DPI.

I can't believe Lightroom CC doesn't have decent export as... file type and quality options yet. This is a must-have feature!

I end up with files from 1mb to 30 mb. It seems like a lottery. Never know what I'm gonna get.

No kidding.  This is ridiculous - moving to "new" and then take away important features.

I want to switch to Lightroom CC from Desktop but this is one of the main reasons why I can't. Not being able to set the file name and export options is stunning in a very bad way!!

Adobe has made it clear that any export setting at all on Lightroom CC would be blasphemy

When exporting image in Lightroom Mobile (Android), it renames the original filename to be something like*Export* which is extremely inconvenient and annoying. Especially when you export hundreds of images on the mobile, you lose the track of which image is what. Keeping the original filename is "logical" and convenient. Also, it'll eliminate the need for a second and needless export on the desktop version in order to have the original filenames!

HEIC/HEIF provides superior compression without compromising the image quality much in comparison to JPG. So, it'd be really nice to have this as an export option.

As I said, the app needs more export options and the ability to export at better quality/less compression, like the Lightroom Classic on desktop.

As a photographer working for a media agency, we have to export our images from lightroom and resize and crop for all the different social media and ad platforms individually. It would help streamline our workflow so much if we could export from lightroom those formats for web.
