Thank you for listening to us users, I've seen app changes I've asked for and it's just amazing that u take the time to improve your amazing program!

 

I don't really use the preset profiles, I mean as a Lightroom user why the heck would I?😂 but also, when ever I had the urge to try and go and flip through the nice presets I get into a situation: I pick a profile, but I can't unpick it! 
 So I'm stuck with a profile and need to either go back, reverse, which is a mess if you've been going through many of the profiles 😂 my way to get rid of the profile is to just reset to import. Still there's is room for an easy improvement here. If I can add an profile, I should be able to remove just as easily as I added it.

 

Other than that, thank you for making a great raw file editor on iPad, love you for it!

I'm not sure I understand your request. Lightroom always uses some profile, you cannot have no profile at all. So you can always simply choose another profile again, but you cannot choose 'No profile'. If you selected a profile and you don't like what it does, then there is an 'Undo' button in the upper right corner.

Alright, so you mean there is a profile, invisible one, when I import. Well why can't I see it? When import a raw photo all the settings are at let's say 0 as name for the original imported version. Then I can tweak the settings, and create what ever I want, those settings are my edits. Then there is the profiles, something I'm not very familiar with tbh. If I try one before I do any of my own editing, Then I can easily go back to where I was, the original imported version. BUT if I do edit a picture, and then try a profile for fun, the only way to REMOVE that extra profile is to go back or use the reset settings. It's just not very efficient. What am I not understanding? Am I really the only one to be confused by profiles? Anyway maybe an "original" profile to press, to get rid of any of the chosen profiles, or just a way to UNPICK a profile, press it once to apply press it again to remove.

No, there isn't an invisible profile. The default profile is applied on import and is always visible at the top the Edit panel. There is always only one profile, you cannot use an 'extra' profile. If you select a different profile, then you'll replace the current profile with that selection.
