iPhone Installation Guide for Lightroom Mobile Presets

Currently, Adobe doesn’t have a way for us to automatically install mobile presets. Not to worry, the process is simple. It involves downloading the Preset DNG files to your phone. These Preset DNG files have all the preset settings saved into them. Next, we will simply copy the preset settings from the DNG files into your personal Lightroom preset collection.

NOTE: Based on your lighting conditions, camera settings and personal style, these presets will work differently on every photo. The final touch may be done by you through small adjustments like changing the exposure to create your perfect image. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need help tailoring these presets to your specific photo.

Common Problems

• If you can’t see the “Create Preset” button, make sure you’ve updated your Lightroom app
• Make Sure you’ve selected PRESETS and not PROFILES in the main Lightroom slider

• When creating presets, we advise that you create your own folder, otherwise the presets will be automatically saved in the Lightroom Folder
• If you do not see your presets once you open the PRESETS section, check the different folders. If you do not select or did not previously create a folder, your presets will be saved in the folder called USER PRESETS

• Can’t see the imported presets? Sort the gallery by IMPORT DATE

• Do you see this error when trying to download the presets? Just simply copy the preset link and paste it into your browser.
