I am a professional wedding photographer and I use Lightroom on my tablet primarily for culling large numbers of images. While I truly appreciate the convenience of Lightroom Mobile/Tablet, I’ve noticed two aspects that significantly slow down my workflow compared to Lightroom on desktop:
- Lack of “Auto Next” feature – On Lightroom for desktop, after assigning a flag, star rating, or color label, the software automatically advances to the next image. This greatly speeds up culling. On the tablet version, I need to manually swipe or tap for every image, which is less efficient.
- Transition animation between images – When moving to the next or previous photo on the tablet, there is a smooth transition effect. While visually pleasant, it delays the instant image change that’s crucial during high-volume culling.
Would it be possible to add the “Auto Next” option and/or an option to disable transition animations in Lightroom Mobile or Tablet? These small changes could make a huge difference for photographers working through thousands of images on the go.
Thank you for considering these suggestions, and for your continued work on improving Lightroom.
