When exporting a tiff to iOS it will only arrive as a jpeg no matter what settings I choose in lightroom.

Now what program are you working in? Lightroom or Lightroom Classic?

I exported a RAW as Tiff to my Mac and then Airdropped it my Iphone and it ended up in the Camera Roll. It showed up correctly as a Tiff.

    I can export a tiff to Photos on my iMac from Lightroom Classic using the options as shown in the screen capture and it arrives there as a tiff. See the second screen capture for the file info in Photos.

    How do you send the image from Photos on the iMac to iOS on iPad or iPhone I have no idea since I do not use the "Photos" app very often.

    Exactly how are you “exporting” to iOS?

    “Arrive” means what (how, step by step)?

      On the picture that I want to export I press the square icon. Go to export to camera roll. Go to settings. Change to tiff and 16 bit etc. then export. A 41.6mb photo exports to the camera roll as a jpeg 1.8mb. No matter what I try I can not get it to export as a tiff

      Yes, that method works fine from LrC Mobile the Photos. 


      Agree with Conrad’s post, works for me also.
