iPhone Duo laptop mode: image on one screen, controls on the other

Question

Hello Lightroom team,With iPhone Duo arriving, it would be great to see a dedicated “laptop mode” in Lightroom mobile: One screen (or half) shows the image at full size.	The other screen (or bottom half) shows the editing controls (sliders, masks, presets, histogram).This would mirror the efficiency of dual‑monitor and Reference View workflows on desktop and make serious mobile editing much more practical on foldable devices.Current mobile behavior (tapping to hide/show controls, press‑and‑hold for before/after) is good, but a persistent split layout would be a big productivity boost.Thanks for considering this.

Hi Paul—I’m a designer on the Lightroom mobile team. Thank you for your suggestion. We are excited about the iPhone Duo as well. We are excited about the new possibilities it brings.

We have also thought about this specific pose and have some ideas how to present the Lightroom interface on this screen. I cannot give you any commitment on the timeline, but i want to let you know that we are working on it.
