I have lightroom mobile & lightrooom CC on my PC. My photos seem to be completley different in color as far as saturation and contrast on a computer vs. Mobile. I have sent the photod to my work computer as well and seem to have the same problem.  Would anyone know why?

Hi there,

 

The screens of mobile devices and computer monitors are designed and caliberated differently resulting in difference in color reproduction. There may also be a difference in the color profile that the computer monitor and the mobile device are calibrated to (and the profiles they can support) resulting in difference in color reproduction. 

 

The above mentioned reasons effect the saturation of colors and the contrast of the images as well and that would be the reason why you see a difference. 

 

Let us know if you have any other queries.

 

Regards,

Nikunj

I am having these issues as well. I'm a newbie to this program and I took some photos for my cousin's wedding. As I'm editing on my laptop, they look exactly how I want them to, but when I switched to mobile to save them and send her a sneak peek, they looked AWFUL. Way too dark, exposure too low, contrast too high, over saturated. But if I edit them on my phone, they look super washed out when I jump back on my laptop. Is there any way to remedy this even a little? I'm trying to avoid editing them on my phone - and I imagine she will want them printed for an album. How do I know how they will turn out printed and as most people will be viewing them on mobile (I imagine) I don't want them to look so hideously dark and saturated.
