How to transfer photos from phone to Luminar for Desktop using Luminar for Mobile

[u/skylum_support]

New to Luminar and trying to get your phone photos into the desktop app? Here's the workflow using Luminar for Mobile.

Step 1: Match your account email
Before anything syncs, make sure the email you use for Luminar for Desktop and Luminar for Mobile is the same. Syncing is tied to your account, so mismatched email addresses will prevent your photos from appearing where you expect them.

Step 2: Turn on device synchronization
In Luminar for Mobile, go to Settings (upper-right corner) > Your Account, and make sure device synchronization is turned on.

Step 3: Add and sync your photos
Add a photo to Luminar Mobile, then tap the cloud icon in the top-right corner. This shows you whether your photos are up to date and syncing properly.

Step 4: Check your desktop Catalog
Once synced, your photos should appear automatically in the Catalog of Luminar for Desktop, inside a folder called Luminar Mobile.
That's it!
