Hi,
I am thinking about switching from iCloud to Adobe Cloud. I like Lightroom very much but when I delete a photo in the lightroom app it remains on my iPad locally and therefore also on iCloud. Is that a bug or is there an option to change this behaviour? Otherwise organising photos in LR seems senseless to me as I would then have to delete all photos twice.
Hopefully you can help me out?
best regards
flommm

Deleting an image from Lightroom cloud will not delete it from iCloud if it was also there. It will only delete it from the Lightroom app and the Lightroom cloud. That's not a bug. Apps on your iPad are not allowed to delete images from its photoroll as a security measure so it is not possible for the image to get deleted from iCloud.
The trick is to avoid having images in both locations. The photoroll you see in Photos on the iPad has nothing to do with the images in Lightroom even if it looks like that sometimes because often the lightroom app is set up to automatically import the images from the photoroll. The main way top avoid this duplication is to use the camera insidfe Lightroom and nt to use the system camera app. This will only place the image in Lightroom. You can even shoot in raw format this way which is really quite useful and can't be done in the system camera app.

Apps indeed can delete from the Photo roll after the security message. If you want adobe to do this you should ask for it on https://feedback.photoshop.com
