P: LrM - Allow application of metadata to multiple photos at once

LEGEND ,
Jul 14, 2016 Jul 14, 2016

Allow me to select multiple photos and apply stars & ratings to the selected photos. Frequently I like to mark all photos as 3-stars, then filter on >= 3 stars. I then start setting photos I don't like to 2 stars to remove them from the visible set. As it is I can't mark all photos as 3 stars in one batch, I instead have to use the desktop to do it.

The things I would most love to do on LR mobile would be organizational tasks, like titles and captions. Those would be great to do with my iPad from the couch instead of stuck at a desk chair. Keywords also, but I see there is already a topic for that.

Agreed, I'd love to see that too.  I often do my first pass as flags, and then give them 1 star and mark up from there.

Yes, would love to be able to flag multiple photos at once for rejection. Makes the first pass so much faster.

Shared public links in Adobe Creative Cloud show the caption of a photo in full screen mode.

Why not in iOS? Editing the caption would be great!

Thanks for the correction.  The 12/8/16 release notes say, "The teams for both Lightroom for iPads as well as Lightroom for Android are also working on adding in the new edit and info experiences and we hope to release those updates soon."

But when will that information share to connected apps, like Facebook, Twitter and Wordpress?

Hello,

I'm trying try o select multiple images to add keywords using Lightroom CC on iOS..  (No problem at all doing this on Lightroom CC on a PC, but i can't figure out how to add keywords to multiple images in the mobile app)..

I can only seem to be able to do one picture at a time?

I’m hoping there is an easy solution for this but i can't swim to find one...

Any help much appreciated thanks

One of the main reasons I moved to LR many years ago was the ease adding keywords to my photos. This is still my number 1 priority, although I have to admit that the tools nowadays available within Lightroom to tweak my photos are highly welcomed.

I am very disappointed by the way adding keywords is implemented in LR CC mobile (for my iPad). I can’t even select multiple photos to add keywords in one step. I have to add keywords to every single photo one after the other. Although having automated tagging and intelligent search functions is a nice thing it will never completely be a substitute for the adding of individual keywords.

Please add at least the possibility to select multiple photos to add keywords! Traveling light is getting more important every day and one of the basic LR functions(=organizing photos) should not be neglected!

Not only on iOS: I need it on Android.
At least I wish to paste settings on multiple images!

Hi, can you add a feature to add tags to multiple photos at once. I prefer to tag photos instead of putting them in albums, at the moment I want tag multiple photos at once, but cannot. So I have to tag the photos one by one. Would be great if I can tag multiple photos at the same time. Thanks!

Please, please, please let us batch edit on mobile or at very least sync to all, select all and sync.

It’s possible on every form of LR, why not mobile ??

It is currently impossible to change flag / star information on multiple photos.

I get the feeling no one is really using LR mobile?  I'm surprised how this isn't voted on more.
