Does Lightroom Mobile work in landscape mode on an iPhone?

@Charlie.D  yet again, I believe this is already in the ideas section, isn't it?

 

Also, I can't understand why, when the team knew that they were releasing a new version with a major regression like this, they did so anyway. This is especially frustrating considering that I turned on the experiment feature for this before it was officially released, and submitted feedback through the app indicating that landscape editing wasn't available.

In last version, I can edit the picture while my phone is horizontally. But after updating, the tool bar only appears in the vertical holding.

Did you notice the edited post from Adobe staff? Apparently it was not removed, but only disabled for "renovation work".

 

Although "not being complete yet" sounds fitting for the whole interface rework, they coud take it back as  a whole and work on it.

I've already started testing a few options. Prefer LR.. but not with 'updates'.

Looks like LR Devs called all their buddies to leave a positive review to offset the Most Recent reviews hammering the horrible update.

You could contact support, sometimes they pause the subscription until an issue is fixed.

I turn it off. Many do. Still unfathomable that the largest view (landscape) would have editing removed to limit editing to the smallest screen. The new 'double' tool bar at bottom even blocks the highlight slider on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. Barely 2 sliders visible now without scrolling. 

this update is an epic fail.

I wonder if sending usage data is optional, maybe landscape editors are more careful and conscious about the data they send, and have that turned off.

Are you kidding?  I basically only take landscape photos on my phone. If editing is not available in landscape orientation, I'm deleting Lightroom and getting something else.
