P: (iPadOS): Swap panels for Left-Handers

The current (08-2017) build on Lr Mobile places the tools on the right' for left handed people especially when using a iPad Pro and the iPencil, this causes serious functionality issues, as using the sliders etc means the left hand is over the image...it would be great if the location of the tools could be moved back to the bottom (prefered) or be selectable (left or right side)

Yes, it's iOS only so far. The iOS/Android features tend to leapfrog each other, so it's likely to be added to Android soon.

I'm on Android and don't see this preference setting you're referring to, is it IOS only?

SOLVED!!!

If you click on the "Lr" on the home page and then go to "General" you'll find "Left Handed Editing" and can switch it there. Thank you Adobe!!!

Andrew this functionality has been added in a recent LR Mobile update. It's a settings function you can turn on in the app!

I want to add my voice to this, too! As a left handed creative, it's very uncomfortable trying to edit photos with my hand in the way...

It's in the latest release Frunk. Tap the LR icon top left, go down to General and you'll find the preference setting in there.

Hi Josh, four months later would you have news about this? Four months is rather a long time for adding such a feature, even while allocating time to properly test it before it goes public! Thanks in advance
