Question

Best (Adobe) app to show photos to clients on iPad

I have the full Adobe subscription, so access to 59+ apps now. Looking for recomendations for the best app and workflow to show finished photographs (JPG's) to clients on my iPad. Ideally folders of images can be viewed offline. I won't be editing these images, they're all fully retouched. I currently have folders in Creative Cloud but see no way to view those off-line, like for instance, you can do with PDF's in Acrobat. I can viw images offline in Dropbox, but Dropbox isn't really a great viewer solution. Would prefer to use an Adobe product seeing as I have images in Creative Cloud (and I'm paying enough!), but willing to go outside Adobe if there's better solutions.

Thanks!

With Lightroom (Mobile version) on the iPad, you will be able to select and show Albums of photos you have in the Cloud ecosystem (for mobile devices).

TBMK If you are offline, Lightroom should still show the proxy (smart Preview) images which are quite acceptable to view on small screens.

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .

Hello @El_Jeffe,

To show your Lightroom album with original photos (while offline), you could also store the album locally (select Store Locally toggle from (...) menu next to the album name). Just to make sure you turn off the option "Only download smart previews" in LrMi settings > Cloud Storage & Sync"

While swiping between images the LR edit panel did come up a few times. Is there a way to turn that off? In other words, to make the screen in the Folder view just a full screen viewer, not an editing screen?

Thanks!
