A little more:

° Tap the trash can if you want to discard the entire selection and start again;
° By clicking on the “+”, in addition to the brush selection, create radial or gradient line adjustment effects;
° Play and explore. Do you want to change the result? Just tap the “back arrow” and return to the action. Changed your mind? There is still time to tap the “forward arrow” and redo the action;
° When completing any adjustment, confirm the icon in the bottom right corner, next to the resource name to close or continue editing with other adjustment potions.

Cut

This crop tool is very practical when you need a photo in a hurry and then you see that it is crooked or shows more than you would like to see in the photo.

With this feature, rotate, mirror, flip, change the angle, shape and center of attention of the image.

The cool thing is that it has format suggestions that can be very useful, such as 3×4 for documents and 1:1 for posts.

Profiles

This is a simple feature for those who took color photos and fits perfectly for those who like old, artistic or black and white effects, for example.

1- Decide which photo you want to edit;
2- When finished, confirm the icon in the bottom right corner, next to the resource name to finish or continue editing with other adjustment options.

Organization and optimization has everything to do with Lightroom, so as you use it, the alternatives are registered in “Favorites”, making it easier to find and standardize your photos, as soon as you open the “Profiles” option.

Self

As the name suggests, just tap the feature and it will make the basic and necessary adjustments to your images. It's no miracle, but it can be the starting point for those who are starting out and realize the possibilities of adjusting their photos.

Light

Tapping the Light feature, create images with greater drama or take the opportunity to brighten photos on those days when the Sun isn't shining.

The feature is so improved that you can work on shadows individually and graduate light in a professional way using your smartphone.

Color

Warm up or cool down your images. Adjust hue, vibrancy and saturation in a simple way.

Effects

Work on lighting, grain, roughness and vignette effect (those smoky edges in old photos).

Detail

Make details sharper by dragging the controls as you want.

Optics

In this feature, activate the alternatives “Remove chromatic deviation” and “Activate lens corrections” using the 2 keys. If the result seems too subtle, select and deselect to see which alternative you like best with the result you are looking for.

Geometry

Draw 2 to 4 guidelines to customize perspective corrections. It's a broader resource, difficult to control, and I've never particularly needed it.
