I edit on Lightroom Mobile (on iphone 15) i take pictures in RAW so i edit in RAW after i'm done editing i press share>export as>DNG>Save Image

once i save the image to my camera roll it saves without all the edits but when i go back to lightroom it shows all my edits. does anyone know how to fix this?

Do not export as DNG if you want to view your photos in a non-Adobe app. Export as DNG will save the original raw data as DNG, and store the edits in the metadata of the DNG. Non-Adobe apps can't read those (proprietary) metadata, and so they will show the unedited image. Export in jpeg or tiff.
