Smart previews are 2560 pixels on the long side, which is big enough for any web usage and even good enough for prints up to 10 or 15 inches. You have full raw file editing capabilities over these smart previews in Lightroom CC and any edits you make will be synced to the cloud and back to your Lightroom Classic catalog. Smart previews are downsized images that don’t take up much space.

Any collection you click the sync icon for will sync to the cloud and you will be able to access those photos in Lightroom CC from any computer, phone or tablet.

Open Lightroom CC and verify that the collections you selected to sync are showing up in Albums.The images in those collections will begin syncing to the cloud. Go to your Lightroom Classic collections and click the small Sync icon to the left of any collection you want to have access to in Lightroom CC.In Lightroom Classic on your main computer, click on the Lightroom badge in the upper left corner the screen and then click start where it says “Sync with Lightroom CC”.

Go to the App Store from your phone, iPad or any other device you want to access your images from and install the Lightroom CC app.Use the Adobe CC app to also install Lightroom CC on any other computers or laptops you want to access your images from.Go to your Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app and install Lightroom CC on your main computer (the one you have your Lightroom Classic catalog on).Watching the video is the best way to see how to do it, but here are the written steps:
