P: Mobile: iOS switches back to Auto Mode... since iOS 12 update or 4.1.1 update

Very recently I updated iOS to 12 (necessary for some app).
I realize it occured about the same time as the Lr 4.1.1 upgrade (711BD8).

Now, everytime I start the camera, I'm back to auto mode and 4:3 and f#@&g activated flash on.

Is it only me ? If I uninstall it, i'll have to download all my pictures again ? what informations would I loose ?

Is there a better way to reset prefs ?

    Lately (maybe since the 4.1 update?) I've been having an issue with the camera. When I open the camera, I often find that it has been reset to Auto mode. When I change it to Pro (what I always use), all the Pro settings have been reset as well. The flash has been set to auto, the horizon level has been turned off, the aspect ratio has been set to 4:3, etc.

    Lightroom used to save my last used camera settings. It's really annoying that it keeps resetting everything because then I have to waste time fixing everything before I can start shooting.

    I've restarted the phone (I never think about this, i need an uptime counter 🙂 ), so far it seems to work.

    Thanks Rikk.

    Franck, 

    I am not seeing this.  Both Shooting Mode, Flash and Aspect Ratio are sticky across sessions.

    Using iPhone 7 Plus
    Lightroom 4.1.1
    iOS 12.1.2

    If you are fully synced (tap the Cloud icon at top to confirm) and you uninstall, you should lose no information. You would have to sync down any photos currently synced from the cloud. 

    Have you tried restarting your device?
