I am experiencing that edits made on my iPad are disappearing.

i edit an image on my iPad and I no not touch that image on any other devices. An hour or day later all or some of the edits that I have done to that image is completely gone.

 

Help please, some images I have edited multiple times and the edits keep dispersing all of them. 
I saw post similar to this topic back from 2018, it this an issue still?

Hi,

we've solved several sync issues during the past years so this should not be the same issue.
Just double checking; after you have edited the images, do you swipe away from them or exit the loupe?
If so, which client are you waiting on?
Have you verified on https://lightroom.adobe.com and verified that the edits are there?

Thanks,
Ignacio

Thanks for reaching out.

Please clarify what you are meaning with "swipe away from them or exit the loupe" and "which client are you waiting on"

 

thanks

LR Mobile is undoing presets, edits. and adjustments from old photos. It started after the newest update. Is there a way to change them all back?

@AshLeigh5CC4 when you mention Lr Mobile, do you also mean that one of your iOS/iPadOS devices is seeing lost edits and you don't recalling having done them?
Is the state the same on https://lightroom.adobe.com
There's a possibility that you have another client doing this besides iOS/iPadOS.

At the time, I noticed it on Lightroom Mobile iOS, but it's doing the same on Lightroom Classic for Mac. All edited photos revert back to the original upload but the edit history is still there. I was able to recover the edits that way but it's a slow process since each photo has to be done individually. I apologize, but I don't understand your question about if the state is the same on lightroom.adobe or the statement about having another client. I can only say that I've been using Adobe programs for years and haven't changed anything except switching to the photography plan, but that includes everything I've been using minus the programs I no longer need such as Illustrator. If you can please elaborate, I might be able to provide more information. Thank you for your response.
