Lr Mobile destroys tint while importing RAWs from Apple iOS

I'm importing photos from my camera roll to Lightroom mobile. Lightroom messes up the tint, it shows -150 yet is still magenta colored. I've seen this issue described in other forums but not sure how to fix. 

on Lr 10.3

    Hey @Trxtrx!

    Can you share more details about the issue? How exactly are you importing your photos to Lightroom Mobile? What camera model and raw format are you using?
    The color discrepancies between Lightroom and your iPhone's gallery can be attributed to several factors, including color profiles, screen calibration, and iPhone's HDR display settings. Lightroom interprets RAW data differently than your iPhone's gallery which shows a JPEG preview of DNG files. 
    Thanks!

    These are iPhone 16 Pro photos. I included the image data in the last photo. I'm using Lightroom to import

    Hi @Trxtrx! Does this happen with every image or just specific ones?

    It might sound obvious, but have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app? Just make sure you're properly synced to the cloud before uninstalling to avoid losing any of your work.

    Thanks a bunch!
