Backing up Lightroom mobile to hard drive

Question

I have been using a Chromebook tablet to edit all my photos on the Lightroom app. It has started not working so well and I'm in fear of it breaking and me losing all my photos and their edits. Is there a way to back up the files of the up onto a computer or hard drive so I can then later move it all to a new tablet and have all my photos there organized in there albums and folders and with their edits? I am not taking about just exporting photos, I would like to back app up the "entire" app to a different device to on the new device it would look exactly the same as the old as if I have been using the new one the whole time. Hope that's easy to understand, thanks

Hey, @Snazz0. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I've checked the account you're signed in to the community with, and you currently don't have an active subscription. Have you used any other email address to sign in to Lightroom on your mobile before?

If you log into Lightroom mobile with an account that has an active subscription, the images, edits, and the rest of the data will sync to the Lightroom cloud. You can use the same account to sign in to Lightroom on the new device & continue normally.

If you already have a subscription, you can log in to Lightroom Web (https://adobe.ly/3DzEwGB) and make sure everything is synced up.

Thanks!
