P: Graphical & Image Based Watermarks on images

When outputting any image from Lightroom mobile directly to any service, the image needs to have, at minimum, a © NAME simple watermark placed upon it. I don't think we need full functionality of the Watermark editor in Lightroom desktop but we do need the minimum functionality of the Simple Watermark in Lightroom's Export dialog. Until there is a way to mark an image, why would anyone consider using LR mobile to post anywhere?

NOTE: The original post was a request for a simple, text based watermark which has been implemented. This thread will continue to be the place to vote for image based watermarks. 

Edit: 1/21/2020  - This thread has been changed to represent all three of the Lightroom Ecosystem Clients (Desktop, Web, and Mobile) 

Edit: 5/15/2020 - This thread has been updated to include information on new functionalities. Please see the official post below.

Thank you so much for commenting. I would have likely missed this new feature. So pleased this is now done. I had to use affinity to add watermarks which was a faff. 
My mobile hasn’t updated yet but about to check on the Mac. Really happy. Thanks for listening Adobe. Can’t wait to try it on my photos as had a logo made for me then found out LR wouldn’t do it !! Spot on 🤩

@Rikk okay now I have it on desktop version. I did a complete uninstall including settings, restarted, and reinstalled. I'm on version v4 for desktop. This is awesome, a big help when working remotely. 🙌

@Rikk Mobile, version 5.4.1 - No graphic option, Desktop (Windows if that changes anything) v4.0 - Graphic option. 

So the mobile is because the version is behind, Removing/reinstalling did not update so maybe it'll be in soon but with the desktop working that works for me!

@Annette Matthews *chris_rockwell_jhhms43r7cild  I'm in the U.S., see it on iPhone and iPad, but not on laptop version. Nice that it's finally on the mobile devices, but really need it on laptop for travel and remote editing.

@Annette Matthews  that was desktop. Even after uninstall/reinstall don't see the graphic option. Maybe soon for me on mobile, I'm in Canada so maybe that has something to do with it... we tend to get the short end on delivery times 🙂
