How to Remove/Replace background using Lightroom mobile?

[Jen101084]

How do you remove/replace a background? I purchased this app thinking I could do so much with it and I'm not seeing much that can be done. Everything I see available on this app that I purchased I can do on free apps. I also don't see any tools to remove objects from photos. Am I missing something? Please help!

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out & welcome to the Adobe community. Lightroom mobile does not have the option to replace/remove backgrounds in images. You can remove spots & unwanted objects in Lightroom mobile using the Heal & Clone tools.

You can learn more about them here: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/using/edit-photos-mobile-android.html

Let us know if you have any more questions!

It's best to use Photoshop for such image manipulation.

Photoroom is a mobile app that can cut out and replace backgrounds.
