Hi,

 

We're sorry about the trouble with Lightroom. Would you mind sharing the version of Lightroom mobile you are using? Are you using the apps through a subscription? If yes, please go to Lightroom.adobe.com & check if you are able to locate the images you added to Lightroom mobile on the web. Also, please ensure you are signed in to the mobile app & the desktop app with the same ID on which you have the subscription.

 

In case you are/were using the free version of Lightroom mobile, the images would be stored locally on the mobile phone as sync is disabled for the free version of Lightroom mobile.

 

Regards,

Nikunj

Thank you! Yes, I used the free version, so where I can find the local catalogue on the mobile phone (what kind of name is the local catalogue) and how to reload into the cloud?

 

I am sorry, I am a kind of dummy on this😄

I have installed the version 4.2 on my computer. Is used the free mobile version since 2018, has the catalog always been saved only locally? I checked my mobile device and my memory has not changed and there were already about 4000 photos in the catalogue...

 

Thanks a lot!


Thanks for the info! With the free version of Lightroom mobile, the images are stored locally on the mobile device itself. Since sync is not enabled in the free version, the images are not synced to the cloud storage & can not be accessed on other devices.
