I notice when I edit on my pc.. Lightroom CC, that when I open mobile to download something to show or post on IG, that the photo changes. My edit that I made on desktop shows on my phone screen (iPhone 16 pro max) and then poof.... A flatter version is available to download. Anyone know why?

When you edit an image in Lightroom mobile, you need to apply the edits by going out of the edit mode. It looks like you don't do that, so the exported image reverts to the stage before you applied the edits.

I'm not editing on the mobile app. I just download to my phone from the mobile app.

At the end of the video, your screen recording shows very briefly that you are in edit mode and that edits have been applied.
