Although we did encounter one or two delayed syncs when we tweaked a photo in CC and then opened Classic, which doesn't bode well. You could twiddle with photos on your smartphone in between shoots, for example, and have them synced and waiting for you when you get home to your PC. You can sync a Classic Collection with 'Lightroom Mobile' and have those photos available to edit in CC, be that on the desktop, mobile or tablets. You can use Lightroom Classic in conjunction with the new CC app and get the best of both worlds. To be fair to Adobe, this isn't an either/or scenario. Nothing like the vast array of export options you get with Classic. your options are save it to JPG in one of three preset sizes. And once you've finished editing a photo and want to 'export' it, well. Adjustment brush presets such as dodge, burn, soften skin or teeth whitening are no more - you're merely left to adjust the various exposure, highlights, whites and blacks sliders manually. The handy histogram revealing where highlights and shadows have been clipped is gone. Advanced controls such as split toning have gone AWOL. With the behemoth that Adobe is becoming though, this move can only mean more profit for its shareholders and now, of course, Apple too.Lightroom CC's editing tools are not a patch on those in Classic, either. Apple is currently in the middle of serious monopoly claims with some government officials wanting to break-up Apple because of such practices. While Adobe is crushing it with record revenue quarter after quarter, many big players like Adobe have held off from giving such a big cut of their revenue to Apple with App Store offerings. This is an interesting move given the 30% that Apple takes from developers. In order to get the Photography Plan subscription that includes Photoshop, you’ll need to get it direct from Adobe or pre-pay with a retailer like B&H Photo. The Photography Plan that includes Photoshop does not appear to be available with the Mac App Store version of Lightroom. Notably, it appears to offer only the Lightroom Subscription Plan, which gives you Lightroom access and 1TB of cloud storage with Adobe. The app is available to download for free and comes with a free week of use, then the subscription will be billed monthly through your Apple account. Adobe Lightroom is now available in the Mac App Store with the Lightroom subscription plan for $9.99 per month billed through the Mac App Store.
