Presets FAQ

General Questions

What are Lightroom presets?
Lightroom presets are pre-saved editing settings that allow you to apply a consistent look to your photos with just one click. They adjust colors, tones, contrast, and other image settings to enhance your pictures.

What is a .DNG file, and why is it used for presets?
A .DNG file (Digital Negative) is a RAW image format that retains all the editing adjustments. In Lightroom Mobile, .DNG files are used to store presets because they allow users to copy and paste settings onto their own photos.

Do I need a paid Adobe Lightroom subscription to use these presets?
No! You can use .DNG presets with the free version of Adobe Lightroom Mobile—no paid subscription required.

2. Move the DNG File to the Photos App

  • Select Share.
  • Choose Save Image (this moves the file to the Photos app).

My presets look different on my photos—why?
Presets are a starting point, and their effect can vary depending on the lighting, colors, and exposure of your original image. You may need to adjust settings like exposure, white balance, and shadows to get the perfect look.

Troubleshooting & Compatibility

Are these presets compatible with all devices?
Yes, .DNG presets work with both iOS and Android versions of Adobe Lightroom Mobile. They do not require a desktop version of Lightroom.

Why do my presets look overexposed or too dark?
If your photo is too bright or dark, simply adjust the Exposure and Contrast sliders to fine-tune the effect.

Can I use these presets in Lightroom on my computer?
.DNG presets are designed for Lightroom Mobile but can be manually recreated in Lightroom Classic or Lightroom CC by copying the settings.

Can I share these presets with others?
No, these presets are for personal use only. Redistribution, resale, or sharing is not allowed.
