P: Restore the (previous) Edit UI as an option on Lightroom Mobile

Lightroom has switched itself to the "streamlined"ui, mentioned here: https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2023/07/26/adobe-photoshop-lightroom-has-new-mobile-interface-make-editing-even-easier-on-go and the option to turn it off no longer appears, the option previously appeared. I don't want to be forced into this interface change, it is honestly worse as a ui and I can't even change my images to the correct profile with it (the default Adobe Color profile is way off and is inaccurate).

The Devs responded to my App Store review and it sounded like editing in landscape could be coming back.

Is there an Undo button on the update?

The 'update' reviews are 🔥. Many not happy. Hope they switch it back. No edit in landscape.. new extra row blocks visibility of editing sliders, getting basic file info is deeper.. on and on. Horrible update.

Adobe Lightroom Mobile feels like paying to be part of a beta test lately.

 

Maybe we will get adjustments in later releases, like the issues with the new album structure have been (partially) fixed but this should have been done internally and not after the final release of the paid version to the public.

 

If Adobe does not have the staff for it they could open a public beta program for the users who have the nerves for that, and even offer a discount on the monthly rate for participation. But keep those beta releases from the public that want to rely on the app to work.

I would like to encourage everyone to write these complaints in reviews on the appstore, that might wake some of the devs up

This new interface is shocking - having to hunt for features that were 1 click away (rate/review), multiple clicks to do a one click action before.

Btw rotating the crop area (landscape <-> portrait) is, like the aspect lock, also too deep in the menu, for a frequently usesd function. 

 

It even took my a while to think "oh, where did they put this now" and I probably have to think again next time I need it.

I keep waiting for an app update on the iPhone that reverses this.
