So, I wanted to be able to at least move around home when working.Īs I would normally get the biggest screen I could without entering desktop replacement sizes. Being locked at my desktop for so much time started getting on my nerves. One of the advantages of working from home is being able to move around a bit. I stopped using laptops when covid hit, as my PC was powerful enough for anything I threw at it, upgradeable, cheaper and not a lot of places to move to. Out of all of them, I still miss the Surface’s screen the most. My last experience with Mac OS was a mid 2015 15” Macbook Pro from work. In recent years I have used a plethora of machines and configurations, from a Microsoft Surface Book 2 to an Alienware m15 on the mobile side. Back in October, the company added more film-like color grading tools to the app, and over the summer it began allowing users to share edits.UPDATE 14/02: Added Capture One test under “Applications” section. Adobe also made new widgets for iOS 14, making quick work of taking photos and selfies using Lightroom camera. The company says you’ll now be able to import and edit images taken in that format in Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic or Lightroom (desktop, iOS, Android and web). If you can live with limited features, you can download it inside the Creative Cloud app.Īs far as new features go across Lightroom apps, Adobe has added ProRAW support as part of today’s updates. Adobe is working on native versions of those apps, and the beta of Photoshop is already available. For now, Lightroom Classic, Photoshop and Adobe Camera Raw will run on M1 systems via Apple’s Rosetta emulation. The company says it will “continue to optimize” Lightroom for ARM and M1 processors in future updates while also continually improving performance on Intel machines. Adobe has offered mobile versions for years, for both iOS and Android, as well as access to the photo editor’s tools in a web browser.

With today’s release, the company says Lightroom is now available across all major desktop, mobile and web platforms. “We rebuilt Lightroom to take advantage of the newest performance and power efficiency benefits of the Apple M1 and Qualcomm Snapdragon (for Windows 10) processors,” Adobe’s principal product manager for photography Sharad Mangalick explained in a blog post. Instead of relying on emulation, the company says the latest version runs as a native app on those computers. Following the beta version of Photoshop for Apple’s M1 Macs, Adobe is releasing Lightroom today for those machines and for Windows ARM devices.
