Although Lightroom present on iOS, Apple has not enabled the shooting in RAW-in is an application for Android in this regard advanced than those for iOS.
The specificity of the RAW format is that it enables photographer’s greater control to make image adjustments after it was taken. The pictures after taking them not compressed and processed, applications (such as Lightroom eg.) It can provide a much greater range of options.
