P: Old version of edit is exported

This has happened to me a bunch, both before and after the latest update.

Often I use LR Mobile to spot check how my photos look on a mobile device, then I go back in to edit. If I do and edit that involves photoshop and saves as a TIF or PSD often I will go back to LR Mobile and see the edited photo just as I expected, but when I save to camera roll an earlier stage in the edit is exported. If I try and change any attributes the image in LR Mobile with switch from the latest edit to the previous edit as soon as a slider is touched. 

This seems to happen consistently when I am viewing the TIF or PSD on my phone, then jump back in to photoshop to adjust. After LR desktop syncs the new edit it's in LR Mobile where the issue occurs. 

In these situations I've found no solution except to use dropbox to send the final edit to my phone.

Once it switches back to the old edit there is no way for me to revert. I have imported a new file from card and recreated the issue in a new collection and screenshot the process. In photoshop I created a text layer to reflect the version number: IMAGE LINKS: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tb57k2ef6kn51vp/AACyWRnXJ0yGOX3BNecuJIeXa?dl=0

So you have Enabled Offline Editing for the collection?  
That was the difference. I can now duplicate the abnormal behavior. Thank you. I will log it.
Note, if I make an edit to the image, it reverts. If I undo the edit and go back to a grid view, does the image repair itself?

Make sure you load the full file on LRMobile not just the thumbnail. This error happens every time to me

I cannot duplicate that portion. The file that comes back from Photoshop the second time is intact after editing and does export correctly.

it reverts the edit state that was first synced to LRMobile.  Also to replicate I believe the initial synced photo has to be fully loaded on mobile, not just the thumbnail, as if it was edited or viewed at 100% zoom

So Editing in the mobile interface or Sharing from the mobile interface causes the image to revert to the version previous to the Edit In (as original)?
