Direct import on mobile cancellation is broken by design
So the other day I shot some photos around the house (covid natch) and I noticed that after I imported and deleted my photos from my SD card that Lightroom showed an "import" task ongoing in the cloud sync section. It seemed to be taking a long time, and perhaps be queued behind an upload task.
Interestingly "import" had an cancel X button. I was irresistably drawn to understand what this button does, so I pressed it.
What it does is it throws away your import without asking you anything.
Come on, Adobe, why is there a new data-loss-causing UI button? At least add a confirm, at best consider just removing this weird option which is AFAIK unlike any other in the mobile UI.
Processing HDR or long exposure photos is a background task that can take a long time as well. Did you ever consider adding a cancel X to these operations that just throws away the photos that the user took?
I get that there are some challenges in porting long-running background work to the mobile environment but there's no excuse for an obscure UI element that can cause immediate data loss. Somehow, by hook or crook you need to make the import process "done" (as far as data loss is concerned) after the original modal UI finishes.
