Method 1

Syncing Presets with Creative Cloud

(recommended method)

  • Open up Lightroom CC (not Lightroom Classic CC). If you need to download Lightroom CC, you can do so from your Creative Cloud application.

    -

    Lightroom CC automatically syncs your presets, profiles, and images with Lightroom Mobile CC. Just make sure both applications are synced with your Creative Cloud account. You must also ensure that “syncing” is enabled on both. 

    -

    Lightroom CC will also sync with Lightroom Classic CC, and will automatically import your presets to Lightroom Mobile (only if you are signed in and all applications are synced with Creative Cloud)

  • Click File > Import Profiles & Presets

    -

    This will pull up a finder window. Navigate to your downloads folder and open “Preset Pack.zip”. 

    -

    Simply click “Desktop” and click “Import” and all the presets will be automatically imported into Lightroom CC. You might need to wait a few minutes for the sync to complete, but once it does the presets will be ready to use.

  • Time to check if they work. Open Lightroom Mobile CC on your phone and open any photo. 

    -

    Scroll to the far right of the editing bar and tap “Presets”. Here you will find the imported presets.

Method 2

Transferring Presets with .dng Image Files

  • Navigate to the downloads folder on your mobile device and open “Preset Pack.zip”. This should automatically unzip the file and a new folder with an identical name should be created.

  • Open Lightroom, navigate to the library panel, and tap the plus sign next to “Albums”.

    -

    Create a new album and title it: “m.j.cars” or something similar.

    -

    Open the new album (it will be empty), and tap the three dots in the top right corner. Select “Add Photos”

    -

    Next, select “From Files”

    -

    Navigate to your downloads folder, open the Preset Pack folder, then open the Mobile folder, and tap “Presets”

    -

    Select all of the .dng files you would like to import and tap “open”

  • Now you need to create a preset from each photo manually. This is because the preset information is stored inside of the .dng photo metadata, so we must dig it out.

    -

    First, tap on the .dng photo you’d like to create a preset for.

    -

    Next, tap the three dots in the top right corner and select “Create Preset”

    -

    Tap “Select” and then tap “Modified”

    -

    Next, title the preset the same title that is in the image.

    -

    After that, tap “Preset Group” and create a new group titled “m.j.cars” or something similar.

    -

    Next, click the check mark in the corner of your screen and boom, you’re done! 

    -

    You must repeat this last step for every preset.
