Android app v5.3. After making changes in the lightoom desktop, the thumbnails on the mobile APP do not update. The only way is to make a small change, then the thumbnail updates. The whole thing is quite frustrating and makes it very difficult to understand what has been changed and what has not.

Device: mate 20 pro.

Update: same issue on 3 different Android devices (Android version 8,9,10 respectively).

@Rikk Flohr: Photography Any update? It's been two years! I am still seeing the same issue: thumbnails not always got updated! Sometimes, it's edited in desktop, mobile thumbnails don't get updated. Sometimes it's the other way around. Sometimes, thumbnails on both platforms (desktop and mobile) are not updated.

Edit is definitely sync'ed because if I open the image, it shows properly what I have edited whether it's on the same or on the other platform. As you can see from the attached photos, the grid view (thumbnail) has the blueish cast which was corrected and when photo is opened, it shows that it's corrected.

Solution, as @FeedbackCommunityMember suggested, is to edit it slightly (on either platform). But why do I need to do this?

Hi all I have found a solution for "Adobe Lightroom Android app not loading the thumbnails", please open each photo and do some minor changes to it and the thumbnails starts appearing again. Actually this is caused due to deleting the cache files of Lightroom folder on the phone. Hope this helps you all. 😊 Have a wonderful day. Good Bye.

@Rikk confirmed the issue. That is the best what could happen, it will be fixed. App update period is longer lately, so we will probably wait couple of month though.

No news or update yet, except for it being logged by the team.. No resolution on this either, as the issue/bug is still present.

Same here with Samsung S10e running latest firmware and lightroom version.
Any news from Android team?

Just to add - facing the same issue when editing from the iPad - device is a Pixel 3. Creating a 'version' of the final edit doesn't help either.

Thanks for your help on this!

Am using Lightroom Mobile on an Android device - Google Pixel 3 and on the iPad. Both are the latest updated versions.

Any edits made on the iPad or on the web, do not sync with the 'smart preview' on the Android, even when I use the 'force sync' option on iPad, and have made sure there are no internet connection issues.

Have tried clearing the cache on Android, that did not help either.

Please do help!
