Lr Mobile imports Raw only

You can import either JPG or RAW files but not both types.

If you wish to import JPG go to Add Photos -> From Camera Roll, click three dots button in the top right corner and select Photos and unselect Raws. Next select photos and press Add button.

just discovered after spending over 1k for an iPad Pro thinking I could use for my mobile workflow instead of hauling my MBP everywhere.... why is raw+jpg workflow supported on desktop not mobile? Why have such basic functionality differ between versions? And annoying that LR mobile can’t stack jpg+raw like LR classic on the desktop.

what is the most effective way to log this as a feature request to adobe?

I was so disappointed when I figured out, that the import of jpg is not possible, when there is  also a raw file.

I shoot with Fuji and the jpgs are awesome! I like to to use my OOC jpgs but also want to keep the raws as a backup fo further development.

I am so disappointed, that I was very close to cancel my Adobe membership. Then I find another solution via my Macbook and Lightroom CC. The MacOS Versions allows me to upload both jpg+raw.

Please allow us to decide which images we want to import.

And, btw, why is it not possible to filter the collection by raw and jpg? Only by photo?

This topic has been up for years. You cannot import jpeg+raw paits in lrm =/

unfortunately there seems to be no interest from Adobe to fix this basic(!) fuction.. these are the only responses Ive seen

”Well, as the product manager for Lightroom mobile, my question was not aimed at the benefits of raw vs JPEG. My question was to try to figure out why you would want both raw and JPEG images at the same time. My guess was that you’re finding raw files take longer for some reason than working with a JPEG, in those times that you don’t need enhancements that benefit from raw files. I personally don’t see much of a value of raw + JPEG (and in fact the only reason I use it today is because my Leica q requires raw plus JPEG if you want raw). ”

”For what reason do you want the JPEG as well?”

”Is there a reason you’d want the jpeg?”

How is such a crucial feature still missing? And when can we anticipate a response Adobe?

When will someone from Adobe Lightroom answer this problem?

Same situation here; however, if I create a cloud Shared folder in Photo, then add those pictures to this cloud Shared folder, only JPEG version will be uploaded. 

Now go back to LR, do "Add Photos", then "Camera Roll"; instead of selecting picturefrom the screen (which is your picture stored locally, which has "RAW" badge on them), click the blue "Camera Roll" on the top of the screen, the cloud folder name should appeare in the pull down. Select the Share folder you just created, import the pictures from this folder, they should be JPEG format.  Afterwards, you should have both JPEG and RAW in your LR library.

I hope there is a easier way of doing this, but so far my only work around.

So the “only imports as JPEG” issue seems now resolved, only to revert back to “only imports the RAW—discards the JPEG entirely”.

Lightroom will not import RAW+JPEG pairs, only the RAW file. It makes the iPad app more or less completely useless for managing my photos, as I shoot a lot of black and white, and cannot import them into lightroom.

This has gone on for absolutely ages, and I’m so sick of it. This should be day one functionality—RAW+JPEG is well supported in LR ”Classic”, so what is the issue here?

I have a variant of this issue, but Lightroom will only import the jpeg (despite showing the RAW button on all the photos, and importing straight raw with no problem). It is completely breaking my ability to work with LR Mobile, and this isn’t the first issue i’ve had.

Can we get an update on a fix please?

Same issue here running iOS 11.2.6

For RAW/JPEG pairs, thumbnails are not displayed unless the "Photos" filter is enabled (they are hidden if you only choose "RAW')

All thumbnails show the "RAW" badge

All files imported appear to be RAW files.

It would be useful for people who shoot RAW+JPEG onto a single card to have the option to download either file type, as Photos for iOS currently doesn't have a RAW/JPEG filter (it always downloads both into a single preview).
