Please add additional crop overlays beyond the rule of thirds overlay, similar to what is available in Lightroom Classic CC. This would help immensely when trying to crop for better composition.

Please introduce crop overlay guides in CC. They are fundamentals of photography, and to only have rule of thirds is very limiting. Golden Ratio, Diagonals etc all missing....

This is exactly what I am looking for. Adding the different grids as part of the crop tool doesn't sound like a massive undertaking but it would be soooooo good as a compositional tool
At first I thought I wasn't looking at the correct tutorials but now it's obvious that CC really does only have thirds as a crop overlay with no others available. If anything Adobe should be on top of their game with their software and a small thing like this shouldn't be farfetched to already be available as an option from the beginning. Quite frustrating to have to install Classic just to be able to use a simple feature like this.
This is a feature in normal Lightroom. Please can it be added to Mobile? I want to use a big iPad Pro to edit my photos but this is one tool I am missing from the regular software. It also doesn't appear of Lightroom Desktop.

Hi there,
Does anyone know how to choose the crop overlay shown when using Lightroom mobile on a tablet? The program seems to only offer the rule of thirds, which seems very shortsighted. Any help is appreciated.

Additional crop overlays aren't yet available in LrMobile. They have, however, just been added to the Lightroom desktop version, which might be a positive sign that they'll be added to Mobile at some point.

Would love a different set of cropping overlays on Lightroom mobile. Specifically one to hone in on the center of the photo instead of just having the rule of thirds grid.

The crop overlay when editing in Lightroom mobile (Android, iOS) appears to only allow the "Rule of Thirds" overlay; It's limited. Is it possible to switch overlays? Triangles, Golden Rule, etc?
Please add these overlais to Mobile version of Lightroom! And moreover. Please make the Mobile version as good as full CC version. More people start to use their iPads and other mobile devises as their prime gear for editing. It feels so bad the mobile versions are so limited.

Hi Jim I want to ask if there is any progress on this functionality of the Crop tool or does it need to be submitted as an official idea/improvement suggestion?
I really miss the different overlays on the mobile app.
