Two questions: 1. How much space should Lightroom take up on my iPad Pro (2nd gen)? My system's iPad Storage shows Lightroom occupying a healthy 316.45GG (of my 1TB iPad Pro). While Photos shows 146.54GB. Which makes me think some of my import photos are being stored "locally" on the iPad instead of being bumped up to the cloud.
Which brings me to question 2. How can I find photos on my iPad that Lightroom might be storing locally on the iPad?
My workflow: I use my iPad while traveling. I first import all my photos from a day's shoot by inserting my sd card into a Gnarbox. The Gnarbox is my first backup copy. Then I use iPad's Files to copy all files onto a Samsung T5 2TB drive for a second backup. After that, I insert the sd card into an sd card reader plugged into my iPad and import them into Lightroom on my iPad Pro. They are then uploaded to Adobe Cloud and copied to my external hard drive attached to my iMac at home. While on the road I cull my photos and sometimes start editing some of the photos from the trip using the iPad.
I stopped traveling with a MacBook more than 3 years ago and I have found that the iPad more than meets my requirements for traveling with much less weight.
