P: Mobile: Import options

Hello,

 

I would very appreciate to have some import options for pictures. When I'm travelling, I would like to only use Lightroom mobile to import, relate and sort my pictures. 

 

When I import photos on Lightroom desktop, I always change the file name, add some keywords and change some meta data. This is not possible on the mobile version. Could you please add it, so it's possible to keep my workflow with the ipad too.

 

Thank you very much and best regards

Melissa

    By the way: you can already add keywords in Lightroom Mobile (select an image, then tap on ‘Edit’ in the upper left corner. You can there switch to Rate & Review and Keywords), but like I said: a waste of time because they won’t sync to Lightroom Classic.

    You are cleary talking about Lightroom Classic, not Lightroom desktop. The entire Lightroom cloud ecosystem, including Lightroom (the Lightroom mobile port for the desktop), cannot rename images. Keywords do not sync between the Lightroom ecosystem and Lightroom Classic, so adding keywords in Lightroom Mobile would be a waste of time for you. Same for most other metadata.
