I was deleting pictures in Lightroom and noticed they were missing in my Photos. How do I get this to stop from happening?

Hello @RosieSilva105 

Are you deleting images in Lightroom's Device tab, and then seeing the same images disappear from your camera roll/Photos app?  If so, this is because the Device tab in Lightroom is your camera roll -- Lightroom is displaying your camera roll inside the app for easy access/edit/import of your images.  Deleting images from the Device tab will remove them from your Photos camera roll view too.

 

It should still be possible to recover those images by opening the Photos app, and then going Recently Deleted.

Do you see your deleted images there?
