Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.8.0 update for iPhone brings 3D Touch to brush selection tool

Another improvement is the inclusion of the Detail panel which has the same Sharpening & Noise Reduction controls as the Desktop version. 

Of course, since we are still using smart previews photos synced to mobile (with edits synced up to full size RAW files on the desktop) it is rather difficult and perhaps unwise to use the controls at this time. 

I hope that the inclusion of these controls which are well-understood to require full-res previews to use intelligently means Adobe is laying the groundwork to edit in Full-res on mobile. 

The new iPads have much-improved specs. Hopefully the hardware is catching up and allowing the full desktop feature set someday. 

One thing that I miss more as the mobile LR app gets better is the lack of Virtual Copies. 

Often i want to try an alternate treatment of a photo without losing my existing edits. LR desktop has always had the capability to make a Virtual Copy so I can try different treatments on the same RAW image.

took a look, and this is still missing from Mobile LR

A virtual copy .... indeed...  And we are back to Aperture (obviously desktop only at the time).  Apple's wonderful professional product, years a head of its time, dropped for absolutely no reason I have yet to fathom.

How are we possibly back to Aperture?

i get it. You miss it. 

But I don't cry about how Freehand was cut down in its prime when Illustrator is mentioned. I learned Freehand first. 

Don't even get me going on PageMaker and Quark Xpress. 

Like Oasis says, "Don't look back in anger"

Your lecture was uncalled for, simple misunderstanding on your part ...  to quote you, "Virtual Copies" ... Hence the reference 'back to Aperture'. I am sorry, I thought it was an obvious connection, apparently not.  Perhaps you didn't use Aperture and were not aware one of its great strengths was endless "virtual copies' of any file taking up almost no space, containing only the mathematics to apply to the original.
