The original photo I've taken with iphone is 2448*3264, 1.64mb. When I import the photo in Lightroom mobile it automatically reduce the size to 1536*2048, 446kb. Why? How do I turn this off?

    As of version 2.2 Lr mobile on iOS now uses full resolution output:

    Bumping this up again because it's driving me mad. You're stating that the android version now has full download capability, but I cannot see any options to change to prevent from downloading 2048 longest edge size. I see the options in LR Mobile to 'Save to Gallery' then 'Highest Available Quality' along with the 'Limit to 2048px'. I choose the 'Highest' option and it still downloads in 2048px.

    Can someone please help with this? It's bee an issue for 2 years so would appreciate to be pointed in the right direction.

    Running the latest version v.2.1.1 on my Galaxy S7 Edge.

    Thanks!

        Glad I found this thread. My first foray into using LR Mobile involved exporting to the Camera Roll. I found my 3024x3024 images downsized to 2048x2048. Not mention of why anywhere, just some arbitrary decision (I mean feature) that's not documented or changeable.

        Nice.

        Thanks – this is good to hear, and eliminates this significant limitation.

        Note this was also addressed in the new version of Lightroom Mobile for Android as well:

        This is a problem for me as well.  While LR mobile can handle most of my editing requirements, there are still times I would like to use Snapseed or even Photoshop Fix.  However, I am not willing to accept the downsizing when sending the photo to one of these apps from LR mobile.  Adobe insinuates that it is an Apple restriction, but I find that hard to believe.  I can send a photo to Snapseed from Google Photos and there is no downsizing.  At this point it is hard for me to go all in on LR mobile until they change this.

        This is not an Apple iOS restriction. I shoot in the field, download wirelessly to an iPad pro, and AirDrop from the iPad to my desktop at home.  Original file sizes are preserved unless you put LR Mobile in the loop.  Adobe needs to fix this if they want to sell into the PP enthusiast/pro tools market.

        Would like to add my name to the list of people wanting to be able to export images full size on LRMobile. I Can understand smart previews from the desktop version, but would like to export full sized images from pictures already on a device.

        This is a significant need. With the current downsize on export, this means you can't use any other iOS app to edit your photos and bring them back to Lr, unless of course you don't care that you lose most of your resolution.

        Adobe, do you have a response to this? I was looking forward to an iOS-heavy workflow on an iPad Pro but that's clearly not possible with this massive limitation.

        For you folks wanting full-size exports from LR Mobile, go to this site and make an enhancement request:

        Photoshop Family Customer Community

        As a rule, Adobe does not read the user-to-user forums.

        Same problem for me. Additionally to say: Nearly all Sharing functions in iOS apps will reduce the resolution - a workflow with several mobile photography apps without losing image quality is nearly impossible

        It would be really great if Adobe can fix that and enable full size exports - or even better: let the user control the export size.

        same here; just downloaded Lightroom iPad (free version); imported few photos from camera roll, edited them and export them back to camera roll to notice that all new saved photos are 2048x1152!!!!! THAT IS MEAN ADOBE!!!!! what's the point to use it then???!!!! if all photos are shrinked to ipad resolution ONLY: I found NO setting to change that... I even tried to share directly to FLICKR and all photos are also shrinked to 2048x1152 pixels....

          Same here.

          If I can't share full size images on iOS, I can't use the app.

              If you are syncing originals from your Desktop LR to LR Mobile, the Desktop is sending smart previews which are sized 2560 on the longest side, while the originals remain only on your desktop:

              http://blogs.adobe.com/richardcurtis/?p=2691

              I am not sure what happens with photos that originate from LR Mobile (the camera roll or whatever that has turned into in iOS8) if that is what you’re talking about.

              You cannot turn off the usage of smart previews going from the desktop to the mobile device because Adobe is using the cloud to host them and doesn’t want to have terabytes of space used up storing large originals.

              No, it seems I wasn't clear enough. I'm not using desktom Lightroom. I'm talking about photo import from iphone's Camera roll to Lr for iphone's album. Everything's done in iphone, so no desktop sync is involved.

              I believe LR Mobile is supposed to be a temporary location for working on photos that either have come from or will eventually be imported into the Desktop LR.  It seems less important how large the photos are in LR Mobile, and more important how large the photos are in the LR folders on the Desktop LR computer once the iOS-device photos are synched back over to the desktop.  Have you tries this?  Do iOS photos end up in the Desktop LR at their original size or in the smaller size you're seeing in LR Mobile?

              For additional information, I use iphone 6 with ios 8.02. Every photo that's imported to Lightroom become smaller.
