How do you stop iPhone photos from automatically going into LR CC

Odd, this week LR CC started importing photos taken on my iPhone (without my help).  This morning I opened the iPhone camera app and took four pictures. This afternoon I opened LR CC on my MacBook Pro.  The four pictures have automagically appeared in LR CC?

I suspect this is happening on my iPhone.  But it may be happening on my Mac.  The iPhone Photos App is syncing with my Mac's Photo App.  LR CC on my Mac, could be grabbing the photos from Apple Photos App on my Mac.  As I said, it is probably happening on my iPhone

To stop this, on my iPhone, I went into settings and removed LR CC's permissions to read and write to App Photos.  Is there another way to stop this?

Thanks

Monty

Check the LRmobile settings on the iPhone. Chances are that you have "Auto Import Photos" enabled, which means any picture added to the Camera Roll will automatically be imported into LRmobile, and from there they are automatically uploaded into your Adobe cloud ecosystem, and from there automatically downloaded into LRCC on your desktop. That's the way it's meant to work, but if you don't want your phone pictures to end up on your desktop, turn off that setting.

Yes come on man Lightroom you make these changes for marketing etc. and it messes with people's setting you get duplication etc. that's not the role of software.

This was so annoying. I can't believe someone thought it was a good idea to add this feature and have it on by default.

Thank you for the post.

Old thread now, but no-one has mentioned changing the Phone settings (not the in app settings):

I hope it is okay to ask a question on an older thread. 

 

I discovered that I had the toggle set to ON on my iPhone and my iPad for Photos "Auto Add from Camera Roll". So thank you for this post for solving that issue for me. I have since set the toggle to OFF on both devices. 

 

Now the question is, for those images that did sync over to my Lightroom on the iPad and the iPhone. Let's say I start to delete them off the iPad, I understand they will be deleted as well off the iPhone however will they be deleted out of the camera roll? I supposed I can test this with one image that I don't wish to keep. But thought I would ask here first. Thank you!

I'm experiencing the same issue as Monty Montgomery.  Just stared happening recently.  Have adjusted the auto import settings, but the problem persists. Any other suggested solutions would be appreciated.


Did I get it right that with the Auto-Setting Off you are still getting new created iOS camera roll photos imported to Lr CC on your mobile device? - Guido/ Lr Mobile QE
