I just downloaded Lightroom CC for my iPad and it gave me the option to pay $6.49 a month and get the premium features along with 100 gb of storage. What is this? Is this the same thing that Adobe is offering on their website or is it something sneaky Apple is doing? Where is the 100 go of cloud storage coming from? iCloud or Creative Cloud? Anyone have any further infonon this. Let me know. Thanks

    Correct answer David Illig

    I had never heard of the $6.49 premium plan for Lightroom CC on iOS, so I looked it up. The reason I had not heard of it is that the extras that come with that plan are automatically enabled when one has any of the subscriptions for desktop applications that I outlined above. Assuming one has the desktop apps, then in Lightroom CC for iOS one signs in with one's Adobe ID and the features are just there; no further steps are needed to activate them.

    In other words, if you subscribe to, say, the Adobe CC Photography Plan at $9.99 you will get Photoshop, Lightroom CC, and Lightroom Classic CC for your laptop and desktop machines*. Then you may download the iOS application and, after signing in to your Adobe account on your iPad, the mobile version of Lightroom CC will be fully enabled at no additional cost.

    *You may have Adobe CC activated on two computers at a time, but you may only run it from one computer at a time.

    You’ve posted to an ancient thread. It is highly unlikely that the issue described in this thread, though not impossible, is the same one you are currently experiencing. Rather than resurrect an old thread that is seemingly similar, you are better off posting to a new thread with fresh, complete information, including system information, a complete description of the problem, and step-by-step instructions for reproduction. 

     

    If the issue is the same, we will merge you back into the appropriate location. 

     

    Thank you!

You can visit this site to get premium version of  Lightroom for free. Is this the same thing that Adobe is offering on their website or is it something sneaky Apple is doing? Where is the 100 go of cloud storage coming from? iCloud or Creative Cloud? Anyone have any further infonon this. Let me know. Thanks

    I just downloaded the Lightroom app to my new iPad Pro. I have tried logging in and out, deleting the app and redownloading, I've checked the subscriptions portion in my settings, but I am still not seeing the premier settings on my iPhone 10 or iPad. Can someone help? Adobe sent me to Apple Support, but I've yet to hear back from them.

    I have no problem paying the extra $5-6 for the premium package, but I can't even find a place where I would go to upgrade it.

    First, what log-in are you using? Do you have a subscription to Adobe CC or the Adobe Photography Plan on your computer? If so, then you use the same log-in data as you use on your computer account.

    See if this FAQ helps: https://helpx.adobe.com/mobile-apps/help/lightroom-mobile-faq.html

    I don't have a plan on my computer, as the battery on my Macbook expanded a few months ago rendering it completely useless. I cancelled that account and started completely new one through Apple on my new iPad Pro. I had tried logging in and out, deleting the app, searched for upgrade options and couldn't find anything. 24 hours later, I logged out and back in again and suddenly it started working.

    If I have the 1T cloud storage - can I share my photos for download with others?

    With any if the storage plans you can do this, yes. You share the link of an Album (or a group of photos - but this is currently at http://lightroom.adobe.com) and the recipient can download from there (download settings only available at http://lightroom.adobe.com and Lightroom CC for Android and iOS)

    I pay $ 4.99 / month, for lightroom cc mobile premium, my question is: how to terminate this, because neither on the site nor on the application I found how to do.

    On iOS? If so, it's an Apple in-app subscription, so you cancel it in the App Store: View, change, or cancel your subscriptions - Apple Support

    thank you Victoria, I'm on Android and I found it on the playstore, but I keep the subscription because the selective retouching is really convenient on smartphone.

    So can I ask. If you subscribe the lightroom cc plan with 1T would you have the same space available if you just use lightroom cc for iPad ?or on ipad you can’t have more then 100gb whatever option you’ll subscribe?

    The LRCC 1TB plan comes with 1TB, and you can use it on any devices you like, so yes, iPad only is fine.

    The Premium Upgrade from the Apple Store only includes 100GB, and can only be used on iOS devices.

    If you're shooting raw (and therefore need more space), the LRCC 1TB is a much better deal.

    Well, I am soooo confused. I have the photography plan. Downloaded the Lr CC for my iPhone 6. I know it was said that the premium features are included, I am already signed in, why can't I find the HDR and raw/dng preferences? My friends have it on the 6 so why don't I?

    iPhone 6 can't shoot HDR/DNG. Perhaps your friends have a 6S, which I think was the first to support it.
