Lightroom Mobile (iOS) Clearing Ipad Local Storage

Hello,

I'm using a 2021 ipad pro. I've deleted loads of photos and now only have 200 in LR. Ipad and LR are running on the latest version, files are synced to the cloud and I've cleared the local storage cache. However the app is still using over 130 GB of storage.

Any solution greatly appreciated.

Hi João,

 

Thanks for reaching out. That's a great question. Let me try to clarify.

 

Adobe Lightroom backs up and keeps your original images on the cloud under your account and can be downloaded as an original with or without edits.

You can use the Device info & Storage option in-app to release locally stored copies to free up space on your device. The original will still be backed up on the cloud.

Please check this article to learn more: Frequently Asked Questions About Lightroom For Mobile.

 

We hope this helps,

Thanks!
