P: Ability to Watermark images shared online

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

put the watermark option on the web page for Lightroom cc, I have the option on my ipad but not on my MacBook.

I want to add WATERMARK option when I sync photos in collections.  So, when I open album links, I want to see images with logo.

I just would like to have  "WATERMARK ON/OFF" option while syncing collection album.

Otherwise, we need to export photos with watermark, then add again to Lightroom with logos, create again collection, sync again... too much workflow.

When we share the deliverables through link, the watermark will not be there. If we can have a watermark feature. Where people download the shared photo that time the watermark has to be there. Or we can have on off button. And client can select where to have the watermark while downloading. That way right people will always get the credits

Lightroom of course has some features designed to help creators protect their images. Copyright/watermarks can be added during the "export" feature. But not when a party is invited to view or share a folder or album using the "share & invite" feature. Both processes expose the creators' images to risks of being captured or copied by viewers outside of Lightroom. And both deserve the same efficient means of adding copyrights now available when exporting.

Please improve security in the share/invite feature by adding a radio button (similar to the one available in the "export" feature) that will allow creators to add copyright/watermark protection to the images in the folder or album prior to sharing or inviting others to view. The share & invite feature is an appealing, and for many creators more efficient way, to share their work and deserves the same ease of protecting now restricted to exporting.

In the share/invite feature dialog box a creator can make a few choices in how images appear (grid or stack, dark or light background) in the shared folder or album, but does not have an efficient way to have the display the images with copyright/watermarks.

I may be mistaken, but I believe I got a message that this inquiry was closed. But I see no help or comment from Adobe, just a handful of other users who have the same concerns I raised in my request for a feature yesterday. In reading through the extensive information on Lightroom for desktop, I see that watermarks can be added to shared albums or folders. We're not able to do that when using mobile, Lightroom, and it seems like an obvious and relatively easy programming adjustment to add a watermark option to shared folders just as it appears when exporting individual our groups of images. Both actions exposed images to the risk of being copied or screenshot, and both deserve an efficient way to include a watermark.

Request Feature

(mobile Lightroom)

I'm posting this again today, because it appears my inquiry for the same requested feature has already been closed. in response to my inquiry about mobile, Lightroom, I was directed to information about Lightroom for desktop. I was pleased to see that users of Lightroom for desktop are able to add watermarks to images in their shared folders.

People make that watermark feature available to subscribers who use mobile Lightroom. All Lightroom subscribers deserve the opportunity to efficiently protect their images included in shared Adobe folders.

On Exporting 336 files with watermark box selected and the details added, the watermark shows in every image in the saved folder but when I invite somebody to view them they do not see any watermark on the image.

I have deleted the exported files and tried again several times.

Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

Hi @Bruce_2025! Welcome to the community!

Unfortunately, that feature isn't available at the moment. I'll merge your thread with the main one for this suggestion on the Ideas board, where the software team often looks to see what users want. Be sure to add your vote and any additional info there.

Thank you!

Thanks for that but what’s the point in the watermarks then if they can’t be used?
