Installing Profiles
FollowWith our latest release, Luxe Pure Color, we're excited to offer another layer of dynamic editing with profiles! In most cases, these will import right along with your presets. However, iPhone and iPad users note: direct import of profiles is not yet supported in the Lightroom mobile app for iOS.
You'll find profiles on your downloads page under:
PROFILES | Desktop: Subscription Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, and Photoshop (ACR)
The entire install process should involve:
1. Download the .zip file. 2. Import into compatible software.
PRO TIP - DON'T UNZIP: In current Adobe software, you never need to unzip or open files prior to import. If on Mac, Safari may unzip your files (you can learn how to fix this here).

Lightroom Mobile (iOS)
The Lightroom Mobile app on iOS doesn't currently support direct import of profiles. We're not sure why this is, but the only method of installing profiles in the iPhone/iPad version of the Lightroom mobile app is to sync from Adobe cloud software that does support profile import! How to get profiles on iOS:
Install in the subscription Lightroom (not Classic) for desktop.
Or Import into the Lightroom Mobile app on an android phone or tablet logged into your Adobe account.
Unfortunately, both methods do require a current Lightroom subscription.
Lightroom Mobile (Android)
You can import profiles in Lightroom Mobile on Android via "Import Presets" as demonstrated here.
Or you can locate "profiles" at the end of the edit toolbar, navigate to "..." and select "Import Profiles":
