How do you display location data on Lightroom CC Mobile ios?

Hi, I recently got the Lightroom CC Mobile app for my iPad and iPhone.  I have taken photos with my Nikon DSLR that includes location data.  The location data shows up fine if I sync my photos into the ios photos on either my iPad or iPhone, and it also displays just fine (shows a Google map location) when I am in the Lightroom CC Mobile site via my web browser (Chrome).  However, it does not show location similarly when I am the Lightroom CC Mobile app on my iPad or iPhone!  Is this just a feature that does not transfer over to the ios app, or is there a way to display it?  Thank you for any tips or advice.

    No, you can't display the location data in the LRCC for iOS app yet. Hopefully that functionality will be added soon.

    5 years later...we are still waiting on Adobe to implement this feature... it's been available on the desktop version of CC for a while, so I'm not sure what the holdup is

    It's been a standard feature in Apple Photos mobile app for many years. I've been slowly converting from Apple to LRC, and the map feature is my only disappointment. But it's a big disappointment. The desktop map module isn't at all as good as Apple's, but it does the trick. I just assumed the mobile app had the feature and was shocked to see I was wrong. I will not be able to fully convert until this is in place.

    was hoping that this is possible on the lightroom for iPad. Guess this is why all pics don't include their location after exporting to photos on the ipad.

    Jim, Thanks for letting me know.  I’ll keep my fingers “crossed” that the location functionality will be added sometime soon to the iOS apps as I do a lot of my photo workflow on the iPad, especially while travelling, and this would be a very nice feature to have!
