Hi all,
We are aware of an issue related to the latest release of Lightroom mobile (5.4.0) on iOS and iPadOS. The team is investigating and we’ll share an update with affected customers as soon as possible. If you have not installed the 5.4 update, please do not update. If you have installed the 5.4 update, do not launch the app. Also do not delete and try to re-install the app. We are rolling out a 5.4.1 update to resolve this issue.

The exact thing happened to me. Was using free mobile LR version for years. Adobe LR had some sort of update on Aug 17 (yesterday) so I have a feeling this did something. Many people seem to be posting the exact same thing happening. All photos and presets gone (only default LR presets are left).

Good morning,
yesterday 08/18/2020 after opening the lightroom application, it turned out that it has been updated and thus I lost photos and settings saved in it. There are only a few photos from 2 years ago. The application has been used for several years in the free version. Before that, there was no problem with it. Please help me recover my settings and photos.

And I was trying to look through, where I can find everything and unfortunately it was unsuccessful. Can you help me to solve my problem, pls ?

I am so upset. I went on my Lightroom today and all of my recent photos I've edited are gone as well as my user presets I created. I do have a subscription to Lightroom. When I go to my library, I see some photos I edited previously but none are recent. Does anyone know what could be wrong? I have storage on my iphone, on iCloud and I had storage in Lightroom. I worked pretty hard on the presets I created and had saved under "user presets". Is there any way to get my photos back into Lightroom? They are still in my camera roll unedited.

My wife has Lightroom on her iPhone. She had the free version as she does not describe. The App updated yesterday and she is now on version
v5.4.0 7C7959. She is no longer able to find her presets. They normally show under the User Presets folder, but that is no longer there. I have been able
to resolve this type of issue in the past, but it just seems like they are gone.
I even tried creating a new preset under the User Preset folder thinking maybe it would cause the old ones to show up, but they are still not there. I turned on the 'Show Partially Compatible Presets' setting but that didn't make a difference. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue with the recent update or have any suggestions?

I used the LR Camera feature for the first time on a recent backpacking trip. My goal was to capture photos in RAW dng to edit later on my desktop. I was able to then view my photos in the LR Camera Photos folder and I even edited one while in the field using the app. Due to being in the wilderness with no cell signal, I had the phone set to Airplane mode to save power. I also closed all the apps, including LR Mobile, before putting my phone away for the evening to limit any possible power loss. When opening LR Mobile upon returning home, I've discovered NONE of my photos shot using the LR Mobile app exist anymore. Meaning nothing existed in the LR Camera Photos folder. At least so it seems. I've checked my Adobe cloud, iCloud, and even did the trick of connecting my iPhone to my Mac. Would this have anything to do with no internet connection for syncing? So far, this is extremely disappointing as I captured a few meaningful images while out there.

So there is no way to recover the photos? And no further plans to investigate options for those that lost photos?

So we will not recover photos or presets with the new update but you made it only to prevent new issue? And how you think that we will continue using this app if you have these kind of issue? You are an app that works with photos and you know how much pictures are important for people in 2020 (many people work with them!) and with an update you cancel years of works or personal records and the best you can do is apologize and launch a new update that doesn't solve the problem! Good job Adobe!

So there is no solution to fix this and recover our photos? Then I sincerely hope Adobe will be providing refunds to us. I have lost 19,000 photos.

Hello, if I restore the backup from March and after restoring I update the application to version 5.4.1, can I count that at least this data will be kept? Will everything disappear after starting the application?
