Lightroom Mobile has wrong times/EXIF, everything is PDT and I'm EDT.

This should be fixed in current versions of Lightroom mobile. Let us know if you're still having issue.

Hi Jeff,

When you say "the times are all 3 hours behind" which times are you referring to? Where do you see this in the Lightroom interface?

Thanks,
Becky

OK, here is what is happening.

Original shots were taken in St. Pete, FL on 3/30/2014 from 11 AM on and the EXIF shows this time.

Images in Lightroom 5.4 show correct time and their collection is synced

Images in Lightroom Mobile 1.0 and 1.01 show exactly 3 hours earlier from the EXIF time, they show PDT rather than EDT.

Edits are performed and images synced back to Lightroom 5.4 and they still have the correct time. But all the images in Lightroom Mobile show incorrect time.

Images directly imported into LR Mobile show correct time, EDT.

Becky, the incorrect data shows in the Info Overlay

I am having the same problem, except I am in Pacific time and my time created info on Lightroom Mobile is consistently seven hours behind the correct creation time on thousands of images. Creation time is correct in Mac version of Lightroom, and also in the images themselves

I'm also experiencing this issue. Photos displayed in Lightroom on the desktop show proper time in EXIF. In Lightroom mobile, the current time displayed in the Info Overlay is off for me by 4 or 5 hours depending on when the image was captured. Images captured in February 2014 are off by -5 hours and images captured after the US daylight savings change are off by -4 hours.

Clearly a timezone display issue on LR Mobile.

Hi,

I can reproduce this - we will add this to the next update.

Thanks,
Ignacio

Thanks, Ignacio. While I have your attention, I also noticed that in some instances, if I make adjustments to an image on the iPad app, the changes sync back nicely to the Mac desktop app, but the Before\After switch switch does not work on the image in the Mac app. I can only see the original by choosing Settings, Reset, and then undoing that to go back to the changes. Also, the three finger tap on the iPad app will display the word "Before" but the image won't change there, either.

Thanks.

It looks like LR Mobile assumes that the capture time in the metadata is GMT and then mistakenly corrects it for the local time zone. That's consistent with the reports from different US locations, both standard and daylight time.
