Hello guys, I downloaded Lightroom for IOS, I premise that I am an amateur who enjoys editing photos, I used the mask to correct the sky in a photo taken with iphone but I can't save this edit. I click on the tick to the right of "masking" but after editing it disappears, to make it reappear I have to go back to masking. How can I save the edited image to my phone? Thank you very much.

Did you tap the 'Done' button when you we finished with your mask? And are you using the free version or the Premium version? The free version does not include masking, but maybe it does give you an option to try it out without the possibility to save the mask (I do not know).

I've the Premium version, and yes I clicked on the checkmark and after clicking on it the photo returns to its original state.

I can't reproduce any trouble with the latest build released.  My edits are being saved.

Are you editing images in the Device tab?  After applying a mask or any other edit, image thumbs may look unchanged, because the Device tab is how Lightroom shows images that exist on your camera roll.

 

But if you re-open the edited image, or switch to the tab "Lightroom" do you see your edited version there?  In either All Photos or My Edits albums?

 

Do any of your edits appear in Lightroom . My Edits?

 

If only masking is not working, does it help to reinstall the app?
