importing desktop presets onto iPad

[karinkopersen]

I recently got an iPad and when I open my lightroom app in it to edit, the only presets that appear are my mobile ones. I am trying to instal my desktop presets onto my iPad so that I can do my editing on the go, rather than bringing my laptop (where my current desktop presets are). When I click "manage presets" on my iPad, there is no option to "import presets"- rather there is only an option to "create preset" from an existing image (the way that you would install a mobile preset on LR mobile. 

I am wondering if I have the wrong LR installed on my iPad or if there is even an option to have desktop presets on my iPad lightroom? 

The desktop presets that I am trying to import into my lightroom on my iPad are .xmp files. 

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Importing presets on the iPad is not supported. The easiest thing to do is install Lightroom desktop on your computer and import the Lightroom Classic presets in Lightroom desktop. They will sync to the cloud and so they will sync to Lightroom for iPad.

This is a great idea in theory, however many of us have had nothing but sync issues with ipad. Its horrendous and not for professionals.

An alternative is to apply the preset to an image in Lightroom desktop or Classic, and then export this image as DNG. Import this DNG into Lightroom for iPad. The edits will show in Lightroom for iPad, so save these as a new preset.

Under Presets / Yours, if you tap the three dot icon, then you should be able to Import Presets
