Lightroom for iPad question

Hi! This is probably a really silly question but I'm very new to Adobe products and not the best with figuring out apps. I have been using Lightroom on my computer for a little while now but recently got an iPad. I downloaded "Lightroom Photo & Video Editor" but when I opened it, it suggested downloading "Adobe Lightroom for iPad" .. I just wanted to make sure that these are both legit Adobe apps and that "Adobe Lightroom for iPad" is indeed a real thing, and not a scam? I'm just confused as to why there are two Lightroom apps available and want to be sure I'm not doing anything dumb. Can anyone help with this?

Lightroom for iPad is the real thing. Lightroom Photo & Video Editor is the iPhone version, so while you can install that on an iPad as well, you shouldn't. It does not make use of the bigger iPad screen and does not have some iPad-only features.
