Pause/Stop Lightroom Mobile from syncing

You can turn off by clicking on GENERAL and then unselected "auto add photos"

A move in the right direction and now consistent with pause in Lightroom Classic CC.

I see that version 3.0.0 does now allow us to pause & resume syncing which is what the original post was about. I do, however, agree with micheleo... that being able to choose what to sync would be much better.

What happen to choosing what syncs?  I want just to sync the collections I chose.

Is it going to sync my entire catalog? I don't have to for that.

'same issue and it's killing my data usage on my portable wifi.

Adobe: please let me sync manually at a time of my choosing. I love your app camera but don't want it syncing with each click.

AGREE I will uninstall LRM until fixed

I ABSOUTELY agree, any good software would allow us to turn off syncing. I am traveling and have access only to slow and unreliable wifi. I guess this means I won't be using Lightroom on my iPad and probably won't renew my subscription to Lightroom CC.

I agree!  Need to be able to stop or pause syncing in LRM... for all the reasons listed above!  Please!

Thanks

So I'm having the same issues as others...can't get Lightroom to stop syncing to LR Mobile. I've deleted the collections on LR Desktop and LR Mobile, but it still says "syncing 488 photos". I'm trying to stop the sync because it's locking up LR Desktop and shutting it down, and issue that was posted in 2014 by another user who fixed their own issue with something that appears to be unrelated: Lightroom 5.6 crashing after enabling sync to Lightroom mobile 

I don't use sync often, but I've never had this issue with previous versions of Lightroom. I'm currently up-to-date with Lightroom CC 2015.10.1 on Windows 7 Professional Version 6.1 (Build 7601: SP 1)

Has anyone tried reverting back to a previous release of Lightroom? If so, how far back did you need to revert to make this feature work like it used to? This is so frustrating...I've lost 3 days of work to this issue!

I'd like to chime in in agreement here -- the fact that Lightroom Mobile doesn't have an off switch for mobile sync is a pretty glaring flaw, and is in direct conflict with my primary goal of using it, specifically using it to review and cull photos while traveling. When I'm traveling I don't necessarily have a stable or fast wifi connection. Optimally I'd like to use my iPad to handle import and initial culling and review, then in the evening transition over to my laptop. I shouldn't need to worry about my tethering connection getting abused by RAWs being uploaded. Honestly, the best-case would be the ability to sync the app over USB connection or non-internet wifi (device-to-device), as I may be in a hotel with lacking wifi as well.

But the core need of being able to just control the use of data is, at the end of the day, critical to tethering or wireless-hotspot users. I would have thought that tethering would be a pretty common practice with professional photographers traveling internationally, too (who wants to source a local SIM or international plan for their cell phone AND their iPad?) so it seems silly that this isn't already in the app.
