The map module in Lightroom stopped working last year after Adobe’s API key apparently expired. “That is not Adobes’ fault, but I believe they do have a responsibility to their license owners… Not to change LR itself, but to help fix these external problems.” “Adobe has stopped supporting LR6 (which is OK) but the problem is that earlier the Google license for the Maps functionality expired (for which a workaround was found by users) and now the face-id license expired. “Problem is that Adobe licenses Face-Recognition from another company in the form of a DLL,” a forum member named TML59 writes.

The color labels work well for dividing photos in to subcategories. When coupled with text notes, flags are particularly helpful if you need to finish a project later. Flags are useful for marking your favorite photos or ones that still need to be edited. You can flag and add color labels or text notes to your images.

While the service version of the software, Adobe Lightroom CC, offers iO S and Android apps, Lightroom 6 uses the smart previews tool as a way to work on more than one device. This allows you to edit on multiple devices. When they are reconnected, the compressed images overlap the originals. When you connect an external drive, the tool compresses your images to 2,504 pixels. This software has a smart previews tool, which allows you to work on your images away from the photo collection. You also can manually place your photos on a map by tagging specific locations. Geo tagging is good for slideshows or organizing photos from trips. Depending on the type of camera you use, Lightroom can read the metadata and automatically place your photos on a map. For example, the program uses categories based on common metadata to sort photos. Adobe has several tools to help you keep track of your photos.
