I'd really, really like to be able to do keywording on my iPad in the LR mobile app. Could save me a lot of Google-time back at the desktop trying to figure just where I was standing for that shot, and what's the name of that building, mountain, river, village etc, etc

I would be extremely happy if I could search for a keyword to find my pictures on the iPhone !!!!!!
This is a basic function of any picture database

It would be helpful to be able to add or edit keywords/tags to photos in the Lightroom mobile apps. I am often taking photos with a camera and moving those to an iPad. While I can sort thru photos, pick keepers and mark others for deletes, I have to wait until I get home to add tags. Will we see this feature added soon?

I love keywords on the desktop and would love them even more that Lightroom Mobile is getting so powerful on the iPad Pro. I'd love to be able to assign and also search for keywords on mobile. This would help make perusing large catalogs so much faster.

Adding my voice to the cacophony. Adobe please add this basic ability. You know if you won't listen to your customers eventually another developer will. Already looks t what Apple has done with FCPX for video and workflow with metadata. You're falling behind Adobe, pandering to the instagram crowd instead of professionals. Time to wake up, or we will leave you at the first opportunity.

As all of you I have been eagerly and impatiantly waiting for the possibility to search and ideally also edit Keywords in Ligtroom mobile.  Today I noticed a new beta feature in the web gallery Interface of my Lighroom mobile (i.e. when accessing my synced albums through the web browser, not he app).  I tried it for keywords and was dissapinted to find it does not search Keywords.  However it woks though image detection and works wonderfull to search for content such as "tree", "sea", "blonde", "faces"  "dog"etc.

Fantastic, however how on earth can Adobe prioritize this fancy feature before providing basic text saearch???

Just got the app all well but just found that the keywords are not included. The mobile app is part mobile, part missing and part only able to be managed when back at the old PC. Perhaps there is no room on the cloud? Needs a bit of cumulus nimbus to help with the cirrus logic perhaps?

Yep, Adobe is so visually oriented that they appear to be deaf to a good idea. Hey, Adobe -- keywords are TEXT! Text was what ENIAC ran on with vacuum tubes in 1946. Wake up!
