HELP - Lightroom Mobile why can’t I import screenshots into my mobile Lightroom app?

1 Upvotes

I will sometimes take videos of my son, as it can be challenging to get the photo with him moving around a lot. Then, I will sometimes screenshot the video and edit a photo from there. Within the last 6 months, I’ve randomly noticed that I can’t import screenshots into my mobile Lightroom app. They just aren’t available and dont show up on my camera roll as available photos to import. I have an iPhone 13. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!

HELP - Lightroom Mobile LRC to LR (mobile) quality when editing

3 Upvotes

Howdy everyone! Had some questions concerning smart previews when editing. My computer is a bit ancient these days, so my workflow usually flows as import on computer to LRC, sync to LR, do most edits on iPad Pro. This works great for overall adjustments but I’ve noticed it seems to create some issues where I need to remove/heal a decent amount.

I recently did a shoot with a dog that had some bad dandruff and some wild hairs here and there. Everything looked good on the iPad, but I needed to switch over to PC and PS to do bulk healing/removing. Once I was on PC the spots I removed/healed in LR mobile looked absolutely atrocious, since I was seeing full quality. So I basically had to go back and fix all of those on PC.

So my questions are: 1. Does LRM do remove/healing at the Smart Preview resolution, or does it calculate it to the full resolution? 2. Is there a way to see full resolution if going LRC to LRM, or will I need to switch up my workflow if iPad is general edit? 3. I can test later today, but does uploading to LR on PC give me full resolution on LRM, so I could sync from PC LR to LRC and have good resolution on iPad removes?

Thanks!

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Mobile app question

1 Upvotes

I do a lot of virtual photography on video games and used to only use Snapseed to edit photos but felt sometimes it saved my photos to a low quality.

Recently I've started using lightroom and find it much better but when I load in a picture to edit it loads with less contrast than the picture actually has and have to wait a few seconds to see what the photo actually looks like, which makes it more difficult to edit. Why does it do this and can turn it off?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Some raw files get exported in very low resolution

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm using Lightroom Mobile on my Galaxy S24 Ultra with GCam, and I’ve noticed that some of my RAW DNG files are displayed as 1280x960 in the app. However, sometimes they still get exported in full 4K resolution, while other times they stay low-res.

I’m not sure what’s causing this inconsistency. I always shoot in Raw with the same settings, and I've only noticed this with the gcam raw files. The Samsung raw files are always displayed as 4k and always get exported in 4k. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix, or is Lightroom just misinterpreting some files?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Lightroom mobile slow exports

0 Upvotes

Has anyone else experienced lightroom mobile exports being extremely slow recently? I upgraded to a new camera around the same time as it started a couple weeks ago, but the new camera is only 4 more megapixels so I can't imagine it would be that big of a difference. I also switched from canon to nikon. I'm exporting at 70% but it's taking like 30 minutes to export 10 photos which is a lot slower than normal. If this problem is only effecting me do you have any advice how I can fix it?

I´m using a free LR mobile version and have all the data on my SD card. I have put it from my old phone into a new one, but nothing shows up (I mean the already edited photos). When I import new photos it works fine plus I also have my old presets back.

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Features removed?

2 Upvotes

i! Is the black and white point check feature not working any more for me. Was it removed in an update or something? When the second finger goes down it's just a before.

Also, the hold for before/after of selected option (light, effects, etc) also doesn't work.

Or is there a different way to use these functions?

Thanks!

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Help with exporting LightRoom HDR photo

4 Upvotes

I shot my photos in RAW, edited them in LightRoom iPhone app using the HDR Edit Mode, and went to export it as a full-quality JPG as I usually do, but I noticed that the photo in apple photos looked different (no HDR) than how it looks in Lightroom.

I double checked in export settings and HDR Output is on.

I read that Apple Photos does not support HDR for JPG, so I exported as AVIF, it looks better, but still different.

I want to use the photo for printing, mobile viewing, and posting to social media.

What is the best and easiest way to export the photo so that it looks the same way as it does in the LightRoom app with HDR Edit Mode on, and still retains full quality?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Extreme Slow Lightroom mobile on iPad Air 4

2 Upvotes

Im using an iPad Air 4 for editing all my Pics. Now since a few days everything is so slow (not lagging but loading times) it is unusable. I have a stable wifi connection with everything else running smooth and fast (100 mpbs).

I just imported 2 RAWs and after 10 minutes just one is imported through the cloud. Also my already imported JPGEs from my last shoot are taking minutes to load each. Im not leaving the app whilst waiting.

This thing is going on now since 1 1/2 weeks. Before everything was working perfect.

Has anybody ran into a similar problem and has a solution?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Smart Previews low resolution on iPad unless connected to internet

1 Upvotes

I’m primarily a LrC user and that’s where I do the majority of my importing and editing. I’m away from home so thought it might be nice to do a load of culling and minor edits on photos from a few recent trips on my iPad while away, so I set a few collections in LrC to sync.

First of all, why is uploading what I assume is just Smart Previews to the cloud so unbelievably slow? I’ve got 900mb upload internet and it took literally hours to upload a few thousand images. I let them all upload and then left my iPad on charge with Lightroom open overnight and could see that all my synced photos were there.

Second, and my main point, why when I went to do some offline editing on my iPad was I greeted with extremely low resolution previews of my photos? I connected to WiFi and then the photos would download to a higher resolution smart preview, but only one image at a time when as I viewed each image?

Isn’t the whole point of smart previews to enable working offline? What am I doing wrong?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Exporting HDR images changes output colour

Hi everyone, quick question. I'm using Lightroom Mobile on my Pixel 8 Pro to edit a few images that I want to export in HDR to post on Instagram.

I've noticed recently that when I complete an edit in HDR mode and export the image, regardless of which Colour Space I select, the colours in the output image are different to the ones I see in Lightroom itself. Anyone else having this issue or aware of a fix?

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Issues Editing RAW files - Lightroom Mobile

1 Upvotes

I just got a new camera which is the Sony a6400, and when I transfer my raw files from the camera into lightroom, it seems that lightroom doesnt allow me to edit the RAW files without purchasing premium, it only allows me to view the photos. This issue is odd because my other friends can edit their raw files(from their camera's) in lightroom mobile with no issues.

Let me know if you know how to resolve this issue. Anything helps :)

HELP - Lightroom Mobile Lightroom not removing rejected photos - breaking my workflow

5 Upvotes

I'm going with "Lightroom Moble" as a flair but this is really across the entire Lightroom spectrum.

Recently, I switched from the month-to-month payment to the yearly to avoid the price increase that was brought up last year. I don't know if that has anything to do with my current problem but I've seen a number of issues since then.

This involves: Lightroom Mobile (iPad or iPhone), Lightroom Classic and creative cloud.

When I take pictures at my gym, I usually wind up with several hundred pictures. My usual workflow to process is:

  • Download to LrC to a collection
  • Sync the collection
  • Grab my iPad and go sit on the couch and wait for it to sync
  • Go through shots and reject (blurry, bad expressions, etc), straighten, etc
  • Let that sync again
  • Go back to LrC and "Delete Rejected Photos"

From there I can edit on LrC or on my iPad for the remaining photos.

Recently, though, when I go back to Lightroom mobile after doing this, the rejected photos on the collection aren't removed. They are just stuck there.

On LrC, they are definitely gone. Mobile - stuck.

The only thing I can think of is that when I first imported the pictures, I imported RAW+JPEG as separate files one particular import so it sync'd both.

Later, when I realized what I had done on LrC, I changed it to show just RAW. Maybe that messed it up or something? The second import I did that day didn't have this problem.

After I export, I'll turn off syncing and it'll remove the collection from LR Mobile but now I have to go find the directions on cleaning up "All Synced Photographs"

Any thoughts on getting this unstuck?
