Adobe Lightroom lands on the iPad Pro

Lightroom, Adobe’s other photo editor, has arrived on Apple’s iPad Pro.

Adobe’s mobile strategy is pretty transparent: Go wherever creative types go. That’s why the company, traditionally focused on dense workflows for pros, decided a few years back to break out popular apps and features into new mobile apps.

Lightroom is one of the few Adobe apps to remain full-featured on mobile — unlike Photoshop Fix, Mix, Sketch, etc. This makes the pairing interesting. If a full-featured photo editor-organizer belongs anywhere on mobile, it’s the iPad Pro and Microsoft’s equivalent, the Surface Pro.

At this point, just about every relevant Adobe mobile app officially supports the iPad Pro, aside from the Preview CC and Adobe Reader mobile apps. Maybe that’ll help Apple turn around crawling iPad sales this quarter.
