P: Introduce image stacks/groups for mobile

Please allow for image "stacks" or "groups" on Lightroom for iPad. This would be relevant for (at least) the following workflow:

 

* Maintaining copies of both Raw and JPG images alongside each other, without seeing the images twice in the catalog; also, allows you to reject/accept both Raw and JPG forms in a single step.

* Collecting in-camera bracketed images into a single group.

 

Even with this, you'll still need Lightroom Classic to do any sort of stitching (HDR, Pano, etc), but this would at least allow my iPad catalog to stay organized until I can make it back to a computer with LrC. Thank you.

Please this! I have started taking a lot of panoramas, and in the desktop version the individual photos stack nicley with the panarama it creates. In the iOS and iPadOS version it makes the whole gallery messy.

I second this. The M4 iPad Pro is powerful enough to do all Lightroom editing on it, yet I cannot stack photos or merge HDRs or panoramas.

It beggers belief, that such a basic feature is still missing, 6 years after the start of this thread...

So much of their products now feels like the project brief was: "do the bare minimum, so that people keep paying the subscription"

As someone who goes back and forth between the iPad and desktop versions of Lightroom, this drives me nuts. Particularly annoying with the denoise-created stacks, and just ungodly annoying with a panorama stack with 5-10 source images in it! There's a reason there's an option to create a stack—because it's useful.

 

I'd probably use stacks more for organization if they actually translated into mobile, but right now I just fight with them on enhance and panos, and avoid them otherwise.

I think this is something that prohibits using the mobile version for me - the stacks are Lightroom generated when you do a denoise - so it really seems that all Lightroom products should respect what the program creates.

I had a noisy shoot - so 500 becomes 1000... if you use the online gallery to preview - it makes scrolling through, very tedious.

Please fix!

If I use the Denoise feature in Lightroom, it automatically creates a Stack in Lightroom (cloudy). That's handy. When I then open up LR Mobile, I find two versions of the same image, and it's hard to tell them apart on the small screen, so I can't quite tell which one is de-noised (i.e. which one to post). 

 

I later realized that stacks simply aren't supported in Mobile and that this problem applies to all stacks, whether created manually or automatically (e.g. by using Denoise).  And that people have been reporting this problem in Mobile for a very long time.  

 

Please support stacks in Mobile!

Can we get a limited (30 or less frames) stacking option for Lightroom mobile?

The ability to Focus stack, Exposure stack, and stack to Denoise would be extremely useful.

Request for AI people face feature masking and HDR photo stacking features like on PC. I use LR for IPad

I vote "YES" for adding "Group Into Stacks" functionality in iOS as in MacOS! I use it when taking multiple photos of a subject as lighting changes or any situation when there are groups of images that show be grouped together under a representative image.
