P: iOS Export Limit to 99 Files when sharing from Grid?

I have used Lightroom iOS for many years. Never had a limit on how many files you could export to camera roll until most recent update. Now only allows me to export 99 at one time. Looking through settings and options with no luck changing. Please go back to no limit! There's no reason for a limit and now I'll have to do it in batches or from a computer.

なぜアップデート後、一度に100枚以上の写真を書き出しできなくなったのですか?

たくさんの画像を一度に書き出したいのに、これではとても不便です!

Greetings all,

 

Adobe Lightroom Mobile product updates are released.  The May release, 10.3.1, contains a fix for this issue. 

Updates will be available via the Apple App Store. Note that it can take several days for some customers to receive a notification of an available update via their App Store.

 

Thank you for being so patient.

Before I saved 500+ photos, but now it only saves 99 photos. I am very disappointed with this. It is annoying.

I can not export more than 99 photos. Which used to be possible in the past. Very annoying.

Hi @martinezrw 

Thanks for sharing your workflow -- that is truly interesting!

 

I can tell you a fix has already been found.  Our releases go out monthy, and the fix you need will go out with our May release which unfortunately is about a month away.

 

I have another suggestion for how to quickly harvest your LR camera images from the device:

Try using Mac OS or PC-based file sharing to connect you phone to a computer and copy Lightroom original images directly out of the app cache.  See this page for more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/kb/recover-lightroom-mobile-photos-itunes-file-sharing.html

We use the export as a functionality to transfer from the phone to a NAS, typically hundreds at a time many times per day. We use LR mobile strictly for the manual camera features, we dont make any adjustments.

 

A streaming option to SMB files while you shoot would be awesome! Or even the ability to save files to the file system (via files) would also be awesome. That way we could map to an SMB share or use a usb drive attached to the phone.

 

We really like mobile LR and are greatful for the dev's that made it awesome, this change is just hurting us pretty bad at the moment.

While the team works on this, let me point out that even with a Lightroom Mobile-only subscription, as a work-around for now one can still sign into the same account in a web browser at https://lightroom.adobe.com 

 

Just now, I was able to select and save 300 images using my desktop web browser.  LR Web saved this as a zip file.

We really need this resolved soon, we shoot thousands per day. LR is a key piece of our workflow, trying to select just 99 for an export is killing us.
