Lightroom for iPad

> Bionic is not a GPU. Bionic is just a name for the Apple A12X processor, to distinguish it from the A12.

My assumption that the Bionic part of "A12 Bionic" came from a discussion I had in Best Buy with an Apple rep. I asked him what the difference was between the "A12" and the "A12 Bionic" chips and he told me that the A12 Bionic had a dedicated GPU, so I assumed that was the difference. Unfortunately I did not take the time to look it up online when I returned home.

I am not questioning your information. I am sure it is correct, and I guess that the rep, looking at this old guy asking him these questions, decided to dumb it down enough so that he thought I would understand.

I have seen this from time to time since I retired and since the people where I now live have no idea what I did for a living before I retired, so thanks for the information.

> Lightroom for mobile works on the iOS mobile operating system - so any iPad, although your experience will obvious vary depending on screen size etc.

I apologize. I was not clear in my question.

All new iPads are running the same iOS version so I assume any software that runs on one should run on any other one. What I really meant to ask was whether Lightroom would work reasonably well on an iPad like my mini that does not have a dedicated GPU. I assume it should work properly on my wife's iPad Pro, and was probably designed for a device like that, but I really have no idea how hobbled an iPad mini is compared to an iPad Pro.

Similarly I am not familiar with iOS works compared of OSX so I do not know how the configuration might affect its ability to process, given a high requirements of software like Lightroom.

One more question. If they are part of the program would they also work on a non-pro iPad? My wife, who does not do photo editing, has an iPad Pro and I, who does the editing, but on my Mac, have an iPad mini. They both have the A12 chip, but the iPad Pro also has the bionic GPU and I don't know if either LR or PS, if available for the iPad as part of the program, will work well on a plain iPad.

I have the same question for Photoshop for the iPad.

Adobe is currently working on full Photoshop for iPad. It's due for release sometime in 2019. Everyone is keenly waiting for it. There are questions in these forums every week asking for a release date. So keep your eyes out for news online.

In the meantime, Adobe offers mobile apps such a Fix, Mix and Express for iOS via the App store. They are nothing like full Photoshop but they're all we've got for now.

Lightroom for iPad is free, but to use it you need a subscription (that you already have).
