Enable Auto-add photos to Lightroom on mobile
Learn how to enable Auto-add photos in Lightroom for mobile
Auto-add automatically imports new images, screenshots, and videos from your device’s photo library into Adobe Lightroom on mobile. Once imported, your images sync to Lightroom cloud storage, where you can access them across all your devices.
Auto-add is available to premium subscribers only.
In the Import panel, toggle on the import options such as Photos, Screenshots, and Videos as required.
Auto add feature requires full access to your device photo library. To enable full access, go to device settings, and change Limited Access to Full Access.
Select Menu > Preferences.
Select Enable Auto Add, and then enable the Auto add from device switch.
Toggle the switches in IMPORT SELECTED FORMATS to import JPGs / PNGs, Videos, or Raws as needed.
To set an album as the target import location in Lightroom on mobile, do either of the following:
- Toggle on the Import from all locations switch to sync all local device albums for auto import.
- Toggle off the Import from all locations switch, and then toggle on the DEVICE FOLDERS you want to sync.
You can select Options > Select All to enable auto-import for all device albums or select Select None to stop auto-import from all albums.
