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.

Looks like the watermark feature had been requested for years and yet...we are still waiting for the improved version of LR mobile.

I started using the LR mobile recently. It is convenient but I feel sort of 'lack of something' without the watermarks.

I hope the watermarks feature request will be considered by Adobe!

Agreed with all of the above. Wish I had realised this functionality was missing before I had paid for and installed this. The point of being mobile is not to be dependent on carrying a laptop around (or needing access to a PC).

This is the best spot KJ. Adobe do take the number of votes on a feature request into account.

It adds your copyright (e.g. © Victoria Bampton) to the file's metadata, just as it does on the desktop.

What does the LR Mobile setting labeled as "Import-Metadata-Add Copyright" do (it doesn't seem to work)??

Yep I seriously need this.  It's quite honestly the ONLY reason I still use Lightroom Mobile is the export workflows with watermark.  I do almost all of the other editing in LR mobile - In my dream world, I would be able to export watermarked files directly to dropbox, one drive, and google drive cloud storage as well as create Facebook albums

I ended up using "Add Watermark" from the Play store.
