Going to cell settings to apps to lightroom tap on storage to bring up lower level hidden menu makes storage external, that is not on the internal memory. Then in lightroom setup info "device info and storage" set use SD Card... and it does.

There is also a "use cell data" setting off lightroom preferences but it does not seem to change the outcome.

But after all that it still uses the internal memory as well. I can still take images and use file transfer to get them onto my PC for editing and printing.

SD support in Android changed again with nougat not entirely surprised there are issues.

In the end I do not want to clutter up internal memory even briefly with images.

Hi John,

When the storage mode is changed to SD card from within the Lightroom App, all the new import, downloading of the proxy of the images for editing will be stored in the SD card. At the time if initial sync when the application was first installed the Lightroom uses the Internal storage even if the SD card is enabled in the Application.

You can check this from the storage option under the setting of your device, if the SD card is selected within Lightroom, the Lightroom will use SD card for cache, importing and other storage-related operations.

Thanks

Deepak
