Adobe Lightroom Is Now Available on the Mac App Store


Adobe Lightroom is now available on the Mac App Store. Before you get too excited, this is the new Lightroom, commonly known as Lightroom CC, and not Lightroom Classic. Still, this is the first pro Adobe app to make it onto the Mac App Store since Apple redesigned it.

Download Lightroom CC From the Mac App Store

Adobe Lightroom is a photo editing app which lets you enhance and improve digital photos in a non-destructive environment. Lightroom now sits alongside Photoshop Elements on the Mac App Store, with the latter being a more lightweight option.

Adobe Lightroom is free to download and use for the first week, but you’ll then have to pay $10/month for the privilege. Still, for that you get 1TB of cloud storage included, and a host of photo-editing tools designed to be used by professionals.

Mac users could already (and still can) download Lightroom directly from Adobe. However, having Lightroom available on the Mac App Store makes the process a little easier thanks to the ability to pay using Apple’s in-app purchasing system.

This isn’t the first time Lightroom has been available on the Mac App Store, with Lightroom 4 available to purchase back in 2012. However, since Adobe started pushing Creative Cloud subscriptions over standalone apps, Lightroom has been missing.
