Having synced a Collection folder in LR Classic, only some of the photos are showing up on my device

I've just set up to sync a newly created Collection folder in Lightroom Classic on my Windows notebook computer. The folder contains 122 photos. But only about 20 of these are displaying on my Android tablet in the Lightroom app. I can't understand why it's not showing all the photos. I'd be grateful for any advice. Many thanks.

It may be that the sync process hasn't completed. If you go to LrC on your Windows Notebook, and click the cloud icon, what is the status? Note that you can see sync activity in LrC by opening Preferences and navigating to the Lightroom Sync tab. What do you see there?

 

If Windows LrC shows everything is fully sinced, the next place I would check is Lightroom on the web, which you can access at https://lightroom.adobe.com - check there to see that everything has synced properly to the cloud. What do you find up to that point?
