How To Import Presets Directly into Lightroom iPad and Mobile | Lightroom Quick Tip
In this super quick Lightroom tip, I’ll show you how to import Lightroom presets directly into Lightroom on your iPad, without the need to install them on the desktop version first!
I actually didn’t realise you could do this until recently, when I discovered it by accident. I always thought that you needed to install presets onto the desktop version of Lightroom (not classic). That’s probably still the easiest, but if you need to do them directly on Lightroom mobile this is how you do it.
The Short, Short Version
Here’s what to do to import presets directly on your iPad, or iPhone or Android version of Lightroom Mobile. (I’m assuming this works on Android Too)
- Lauch Lightroom
- Edit an Image and go to the Presets Page by clicking on the presets icon
- Click on the … menu at the top right of the screen
- Choose Import Presets
- Local your presets from either local storage or a cloud storage service such as iCloud Drive. If you’re importing a set, your presets need to be zipped. Basically, zip your whole folder of presets.
- This should then import the presets.
That’s basically all there is to it. It’s pretty straight forward. Deleting them is another hassle though. There doesn’t seem to be an easy way to delete whole sets of presets. I could only delete them one at a time, so unless I was doing something wrong.
