I need Lightroom mobile on my iPhone and iPad. And only on those devices. To use selective tools - Adobe requires a monthly subscription of cloud services which includes decktop/mac apps. I do not need this - all I want is a fully functional mobile software, but the price for monthly cloud service (including desktop apps) is around 12 euros... There is no single mobile licence or something like this...
Any advices?

Use something else for editing. The subscription isn't worth it for just Lr Mobile; it's an add-on for Lr desktop.

Thanks! I have tried 3rd party apps as well. Snapseed seems to do the job best as an alternative. I have Affinity for iPad but I am very unimpressed with this application so far - lags, glitches, freezes, and the selective brush is so imprecise...
Well...maybe Adobe will finay realize something and make some mobile plabs available...all their marketing and purchase options seem strange for now.
[doublepost=1505051820][/doublepost]Anybody knows - If I download Lightroom trial for mac, will it give me trial of creative cloud as well?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When I buy bedsheets I throw away the top sheet.

Yes; the Photography plan CC is Lr, Lr Mobile, and Ps. I believe it lets you try synching as well without any limitations. The amount you can synch is unlimited in the Plan; I dunno if there are limits on the demo.

Seems that the Adobe team and support has listened :) There is a mobile supscription added on the Lightroom app now. Still almost 5 euro, but anyway.
