Adobe is out with an updated version of Lightroom for iPhone and iPad today which includes one highly requested feature. Starting with versions 2.2, Lightroom for iOS supports full resolution image output. This means quality is retained when editing and sharing photographs using Lightroom whether the image was shot on the device or imported from another device.
Adobe has also expanded 3D Touch support for Lightroom on the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. Just like in the stock Photos app, Lightroom users with these flagship iPhones can now press firmly on images in the photo browser to see a larger preview, then press deeper to fully open the image.
Here’s the full set of changes in the latest version of Lightroom for iOS:
Adobe’s Lightroom 2.2 for iOS is available for iPhone and iPad through the App Store. Adobe also recently shipped Lightroom 2.0 for Android, which includes RAW image shooting not yet possible on iOS.
What’s New in Version 2.2.0
• New: Full resolution output. Now, export and share photos that were captured on your device or that you added to your device at full resolution. • Updated: 3D Touch support in the Camera Roll browser view. Quickly preview your image with Peek & Pop when browsing Camera Roll photos in the app. • Fixed: Issue that lead to a potential crash. • Improved: Various bugs and issues.
Adobe has also updated Photoshop Sketch, which is one of my favorite iPad Pro apps to use with the Apple Pencil, to include iPhone support:
What’s New in Version 3.3
