P: Support for Live Photos

Also, why has it been 3 months since your comment with no follow ups despite multiple replies from the original author and multiple other people? What's the point of asking for additional info if you do not follow up?

If you're getting a video and image file for your Live Photos in Lightroom this is expected behaviour. Live Photos are just that an image file and a video. Apple just hides that behind a facade and presents them as if they're a single entity called a "Live Photo". Sure in some ways it would be nicer if they behaved as a single entity in LR but at least you're getting all the content. If uploaded / sync'd from LR Mobile you only get an image. What a ridiculous oversight.

Correction. LR has partial support for Live Photos. The more important and logical place for LR to support Live Photos isn't there. i.e. via LR mobile. If you import Live Photos through the Lightroom Mobile app you just get still HEIC for jpeg format not the video portion.

This is a glaring gap in the LR workflow and I would argue this is the place that Live Photos should have been supported first

You could argue that's outside of LR itself because it's LR Mobile that's the first break in this chain but being that Adobe is treating this as an ecosystem more than individual apps and pushing for everything in the could this huge failing still fall under the LR umbrella.

Agreed -- if Google can build a functional Live Photo implementation into Google Photos, there's no reason Adobe shouldn't be able to add one to Lightroom CC.

This is pretty much the one thing holding me back from signing up, since as far as I can tell there's no way to automatically import the live portion of photos at all, which would mean I'd still have to physically connect the phone to the computer in order to transfer the live photos, which kind of defeats the purpose of a cloud service.

Same here, that is the only thing holding me back!

I also would be interested in this. At the least I would like it so they are treated the same as when Raw and Jpg are captured at the same time. They are shown as a single photo in the viewer but both exist. Even if you can edit them the same as a Live Photo. I just don’t like having to go through a bunch of Video captures.

That's exactly why I'm still hesitating. Transfer all my Photos library to a subscription based service is a big commitment. And it doesn't even support live photo? I think I'm inclined to still use Photos.

That would. Google Photos has great Live Photo implementation. Almost just like Apples. It would be nice for Adobe to tap into that API.

Organization-wise, supporting "stacks" via mobile would address the issue of the separate photo and videos of Live Photos. Granted, it wouldn't display like a Live Photo does on iOS, but I think it would meet many users organizational needs.

It doesn’t seem to have any support. None of my auto upload photos retain the live portion. The migration from Apple Photos split any Live Photo’s into a separate photo and video file, which is far from optimal.
