P: Automatic Deletion of Locally Stored Photos After Upload to Adobe Cloud
Lightroom on iOS is a great way to use the power of the powerful adobe ecosystem also while travelling.
But for iOS phones, if taking hq photos, the storage overload has always been challenging..
To solve that issue:
Could you please implement a feature that allows users to choose whether Lightroom on iOS should automatically delete locally stored photos from their device after they have been successfully uploaded to Adobe Cloud Storage?
Reasons for This Feature Request
1. Storage Management on iPhones
• Many Adobe Cloud users I have spoken to find their local device storage highly occupied due to the accumulation of photos.
• This issue is particularly relevant as they have explicitly chosen not to use iCloud Photo Sync and instead opted for the Lightroom Premium Plan.
2. Efficiency and User Convenience
• Currently, iOS allows users to delete only one photo at a time, which is inefficient for large batches.
• A solution that allows users to pre-select and delete up to 50 photos at once (the iOS limit) would significantly enhance usability.
Proposed Features
1. Auto-Delete Option
• Once a photo is successfully uploaded to Adobe Cloud, Lightroom should have an optional setting to automatically remove it from local storage.
2. Batch Deletion
• Introduce an option to pre-select and delete up to 50 photos at once instead of requiring users to remove them individually.
Benefits for Adobe Lightroom Users on iOS
• Better storage optimization, preventing local device clutter.
• A more seamless workflow, reducing manual photo management.
• A clear competitive advantage over iCloud-only workflows by offering more control over storage.
This feature would add significant value to the Lightroom experience on iOS, particularly for those who rely on Adobe Cloud instead of iCloud for photo management uest more compelling.
