Edits Failing to Save Lr Mobile (iPad & iPhone)

This issue has been happening intermittently on both my iPad and phone versions of Lr Mobile. I will edit a photo and hit the back button to go back to the album. I will notice photo I just edited will look odd in the album view. It's zoomed in further than my edit's crop was. I'll go to it and it will load for a second with the edits and then totally revert back to its original state. Lighting, color, cropping, masks, everything! Go to versions and there is no history. Just have to start all over.

There is no rhyme or reason to it. Like I said, it happens on both the phone app and the iPad app. Does it on somethings and not on others. It's getting really frustrating.

Attached are some screen grabs from my iPad along with its version.

Hello @mikemoriendi

Don't remember the exact date but it has definitely happened in the last 2
weeks.

Thanks, Mike. I updated the bug with some new details, hoping this gives developers some clues.

Lightroom Mobile on both my iPad and iPhone is randomly losing edits. After editing, the photo sometimes shows a zoomed-in thumbnail, then reverts to the original with no history or versions saved. It's inconsistent and very frustratin.

This sounds exactly like what I've been experiencing!

Hi @mikemoriendi — thanks for pointing that out, and sorry, somehow I missed that the issue was happening on mobile. Totally my oversight!

@ethan john545, @mikemoriendi, and any others affected, when you get a moment, could you try clearing your Lightroom Mobile cache to see if that makes a difference? If it doesn’t do the trick, it’d be super helpful if you could let me know the exact model of the devices you’re using, along with the OS and Lightroom version. I’ll pull everything together and share it with the team so we can take a closer look.

Really appreciate your help on this — thank you!

Hi @mikemoriendi!

I'm sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing in Lightroom.

It sounds like there might be a problem with the app trying to synchronize your edits to the cloud. Could you log in to Lightroom Web and check if there are any sync issues? You can follow this guide.

Let me know how it goes!

There is nothing syncing on either app. It always says Synced and Backed Up. The web version shows no edits but it also doesn't show editing tools at all. Just seems to show me the albums and what's in them. That's it.

Let me clarify. There is nothing stuck syncing is what I meant. Most things sync as normal and then show Synced and Backed Up.
