Does Lightroom CC replace Lightroom Mobile or are they two separate aps like CC & Classic CC?

I currently use (the now) Classic, create collections to sync to mobile & edit & rate etc in mobile when I need to.
Mobile has Split Toning where CC doesn't so I'd just as soon stay with my current workflow.

    Lr CC is a brand new application 1.0 version so it is not yet fully featured. Adobe intends to add more features to future releases including split toning and tone curve. Lr Classic has improvements and new features and you can continue to sync smart previews from collection as you do now. Lr CC will appeal to customers who want all originals automatically backed up in the cloud and available everywhere. So Lr CC does not replace Lr mobile it’s the piece of jigsaw that completes the eco system.  I have summarized things on my blog.

    It remains as it was if you want it to. Lightroom Classic CC replaces the version of Lr that you are now using. The new Lightroom CC for iOS/Android replaces the Lr Mobile that you are now using. Your workflow does not change. Type "B" to send your pics to Lr Mobile and all will be familiar to you.

    Lightroom CC is an ecosystem, and what was Lightroom mobile is now Lightroom CC on iOS or Android. On iOS, it's effectively version 3 of LrMobile.
