Reviews for Lightroom Photo & Video Editor

← Back to Lightroom Photo & Video Editor

I like that I can copy my edits for certain photos within a group, so they all look relatively uniform, depending on your lighting taking them. Cropping is not a smooth experience and auto editing works some of the time, really depends on what it picks up, and you can adjust that by hand. Really liked the free edition, so purchased for more options, yet I don't really have the time to fiddle with them, so will probably return to the free edition. All in all, one of the better photo edit apps

Outstanding app with most of pc Lightroom functionally. I upload, edit, share, and file almost all the photos that I take using only the app. Only when necessary do I go to the desktop. As a result I can get much of my post processing done while traveling. Additionally, continual updates and new features are provided. So you stay up to date with technology. I'm not as big a fan of the recent layout/menu change and would have liked the option to keep the old format, but I'll adapt.

Last update broke RAW. I have a oneplus 13, it's a great phone and has one of the best cameras on a phone I have ever used. But for some reason after the last app update, when I import raw files in the lightroom app it wants to change the aspect ratio. It stretches the image horizontally and smashes everything in the picture. I have tried changing import settings and changing the aspect ratio and cropping, but nothing works. The pictures look awful. Can't even use lr to edit now.

Dislike the new update. I'm a hobby photographer, I take a ton of photos, I like to import them from my gallery, where I have already sorted and picked out the ones I want to edit. I do not want ALL my photos on lightroom! This makes it way way less convenient to use, and I find I haven't even used the app since the update, when I used to use it almost daily.

App is good, but not worth it. Overall I'm very disappointed with Adobe. I would have liked to just purchase the program, but like everyone they want to hook you with reoccurring fee/charges. They make it hard to find the place to cancel your subscription, not in lightroom at all. Then they charge you for canceling your subscription. This is ridiculous. I would find another program that treats its clients properly and I unfortunately will avoid purchasing any products from them in the future.

My last review was deleted, how convenient. Takes up to 20 minutes per photo to load development & now, it takes just as long if not longer, to get them saved to device & even then, they don't show up in my gallery unless I save each photo to my device multiple times, just to get it saved one time - since last update. Force closes constantly, takes HOURS to edit photos because of all of this. Up to 12-hours just to quick edit up to 10 photos, this is INSANE.

The "Free" edition felt bland and unimpressive. These tools are already available for free through other apps on my phone, including many of their "premium" features. I can achieve the same results with just Google photos & Instagram. The app "PhotoRoom" offers so much more with their free edition.

I haven't been able to use this App at all today. It continues to crash within five seconds of opening. I've unistalled, force stopped, and clear cache many times. Nothing is working. I pay monthly to use this App to edit my photography pictures. I depend on this in order to get my clients their pictures in a timely manner. I'm extremely disappointed right now, but I hope to change my review if this problem gets fixed.

Since the last update all this app does is crash crash crash if you want to do a few simple things. I rely on this software. I edit mostly on a pc but when I want to use the app it should work. Now it doesn't. I've force stopped the app. I've signed out and back in. That's not the problem. Fix it soon.... I've been hearing such good things from other photographers about competing software lately.

Honestly, this one of the best photo editing apps I've ever come across. Really taught me a lot on the technical stuff, and although there are some features that are only available via monthly payments (which is only about $5 per month and I'd gladly pay), it's still a really amazing app without them. A must for if you want to edit each specific parts of a photo better and wow anyone. It can also act as a stepping stone towards the CC desktop version, which is more complicated.

As far as photo editing goes, Lightroom Android is reasonably powerful even if less so than the desktop version. There are key areas where this app is sub-par for people who edit many photos on-the-go: 1. The UI is clunky, making it difficult to review and rank many photos at once. I often accidentally switch from info mode to editing. 2. It is missing basic features such syncing photos in the background. I am continually frustrated by this.

Horrible. Unfortunately I have to keep using this app because its the only mobile photo editing software with good features, but it's impossible to do anything w/o the app crashing like 3 times just for trying to edit a couple photos. Sometimes the app just plain out freezes and crashes before you even get a chance to do anything, (I have a new phone with everything updated to the newest version.) You'd expect a huge company to have a decent app 😐 Its been like this for over a year!

Trash app for phone. Do not waste your money The app cannot select the sky properly in photos, nor the background in photos, nor the people. It's sad considering how well it works on a computer. Trying to manually select these things is impossible even with a stylus as the app is glitchy and will jump ahead of the stylus. Trying to use your finger is impossible. Considering how fat a finger is compared to a stylus, trying to get sharp corners is impossible. Inability to feather or blend well.

It's seemingly impossible to cancel the subscription/premium version. PLEASE cancel my subscription. Adobe isn't helping, Samsung isn't helping, and I can't get anyone to respond to my inquiries. The app itself is okay, I enjoy tinkering with all of the editing options, though the quality after editing could certainly be better. I just don't want to continue paying for premium when I rarely use it.

As a gig photographer this app has been a godsend, it's allowed me to create some reeeally cool photos. However, it crashes more and more, and more. Adding to a mask? Crash. Subtracting from a mask? Crash. Using Lens Blur? Big time crash. And it never saves progress if it crashes. I have to redo so many photos. I'm at a point where I jump in and out of a photo every minute so progress is saved. Also, jpegs don't look like the edits, and bulk watermarks adding to differing corners doesn't work

Useless app. As always, you have to pay just to make even the smallest change to your images. There’s nothing you can actually do with this app without paying. There are plenty of free software. Photopea, for example, offers quality editing without costing a single penny. Adobe used to be an awesome company back in the day. I’ve not been buying Adobe in the last 10 years since they started charging a monthly service. There are thousands of users like me who don't support Adobe anymore.

Warning: Removing objects from photos costs money. I downloaded this because the ad I saw showed that you can use it to easily remove objects from photos, so you can imagine how disappointed I was when I discovered that the removal feature costs money. All of the "free" features are things you can do on your device without the need for any special software. Needless to say, I uninstalled it immediately since it's useless.

I have used this app for years and pay for it. Never had any issues with the mobile version which is what I use most. Gave 5 stars. At some point in the last month or two, the app is acting really strangely. When I choose a photo to edit, the image itself changes as if glitching before I've even done anything to it. Recently, after doing a bunch of edits and downloading to my phone, it downloads the original image, without edits. I don't know what changed but it is almost unusable at this point.

Most useless app ever! I have a paid subscription and I can't save edits, can't export photos, the app crashes repeatedly. I've tried everything to make it work again. Bugs have always existed, but this is beyond ridiculous. Historically, the more updates, features and "bug fixes," the less Lightroom actually functions. What is the point when I can't perform any actions? I can't even see the photos in my library..they're just black boxes. You owe me a refund.

The recent update to Google Photos made it nearly unusable, so I decided to give this one a shot. Overall, the results are great. However, the sliders have such a small touch area that it takes multiple attempts to grab them. Also the area selection is really frustrating because it constantly gets confused between zoom/pan and selection. once you do get in selection mode, the finger brush is really inaccurate and hard to brush around edges.
