When will Lightroom CC on IPad and IPhone show location data like the desktop version?

I use the Geolocation fields (place name, city, state, or GPS coords)  in LR Desktop religiously - every image gets geotagged before I consider processing to be complete.

 

Unfortunately LR Mobile on iPad completely hides this info - it's frustratingly neither displayed nor editable. On the phone, the Location section IS visible, but is not editable (strange difference).

It sure would be good to close this loop - should be both visible and editable on both tablet and phone. Do we have a roadmap/ timeline for completing this feature on mobile?

Hi, I searched but didn't found a feature request of this.

 

In the mobile app (iOS and iPadOS) would be beneficial to have in the info tab the field to input the GPS Coordinates, so we could geotag photos that were imported from external cameras and export them with this info, just like we can do on macOS.

Yes I am wanting this feature asap. It's the major thing I'm hoping Adobe implement asap. I had my fingers crossed it was going to be announced this year in June, but that big update came and went 😞

I am desperately awaiting this feature as well. I also want to be able to import a GPX file so that I can "tag" photos from a trip with location data. Adobe seem very slow in implementing this feature unfortunately

I often use my iPad Pro in the field with no Internet connectivity to offload my camera's memory card and to preview and manage images.  It is important during these extended sessions away from the Internet to know where particular photos were taken.

Wow, I thought it was a bug! I can’t believe the location information is not displayed. The workaround is to export an image and check the location. How facepalm can this be?

I would like that also, including adding data from a gpx file

I too would like to be able to add location info from LR on my iPad Pro.

Adobe doesn't preannounce their plans, but let me switch this to a feature request so other people can vote for it too.
