Moved to Lightroom Classic as it's actually a Lightroom Classic question.

By @Sean McCormack

 

"Lightroom CC" was the name of what is now simply called Lightroom, not Lightroom Classic. Adobe dropped "CC" from the name of all apps a few years ago. So I'm not so sure this is a Lightroom Classic question. Anyway, it does not really matter: both Lightroom and Lightroom Classic support Super Resolution. The iPad version does not.

Yes, Lr Desktop (what you refer to as LRCC) supports 'Super Resolution'. It can be found under the Photo > Enhance menu option. See below screenshot.

Hi,

Yes, I have mixed them up. I'm talking about the cloud version. I use this on iPad, iPhone and my desktop. I do not have lightroom Classic installed. I have the other one so I can go on each device and work on photos. 

So, super resolution is then indeed not on the iPad or iPhone version? 

I do have a question. Should I be using lightroom classic on my desktops/laptops and not the cloud version? 

I know it is more powerful than the cloud version. But, I like having fast access to sharing ect... 

 

thanks,

guys

I appreciate that answer a lot. There are a few things you can't do on LR cloud. Im

calling it cloud lol. I don't think you can stack photos. That's one thing you can do on Classic. 

Adobe should just put the 2 together and have one LR app for all use cases.

No, they shouldn't. There is a very good reason that there are two apps. Lightroom is cloud oriented. It's ideal if you want to store images in the cloud and seamlessly have them on all your devices. Lightroom Classic is for photographers who do not care for that and/or have way too many images to use cloud storage for a decent price. Two apps for two different user groups is a lot better than one app that does not really satisfy any user.
