It seems to me that the macOS is moving more in the direction of the iOS to have more continuity between platforms (see macOS Ventura). It just makes sense to start developing an iOS version that would include the basic functions of renaming, IPTC data, tagging, etc. Also incorporating a link to iCloud for uploading.

I am a wildlife photographer and I travel extensively to remote areas where there is no wifi and no internet. For several years I have been hoping for a iOS version of PM as it would allow me to quickly cull, rate and keyword my images without lugging a laptop into the middle of nowhere.  It might allow me to bring an extra lens.  I don't have time to edit photos while on the road, so this is always dealt with when I return home.  To me, the most important features would be: ingest, cull, rate, keyword.

Please, please, please, create an iOS version of PM.

I am a street photographer. And I always try to travel light. It would be a tremendous help if I could do my ingest on an Ipad or even an iPhone. I use pCloud to store my files and I can easily upload them to the service.
I have an iPad with enough storage to initially import and store the files, and when I arrive at a location to upload them, I will.

For me, the essential thing is importing, adding metadata, including captions and grading them.
I will edit the files when I arrive home and have access to my MacBook.

So please add an ios version that can edit the metadata and import the files or rename them when stored on the internal storage.

Thank you!
