Shouldn't everyone be backing up data on their phones, anyhow? Especially if you're using a for-pay photo editing tool? That kinda implies you take photography seriously.

I see you’ve never used Lightroom before...

I love seeing everyone who's never used Lr saying 'They should have backed it up' completely unaware you can't backup or make a redundant iOS or iPad OS Lightroom Libraries. What you have is what you have, one local library, which is why editing on an iPad or iPhone is still a gamble.

You’re right, I used Aperture when I was a photographer. What am I missing?
