Let Someone Hold My Tablet or Phone Without Messing Up My Stuff?

If you want to hand your tablet or phone to someone without having to worry about them accidentally flagging (or unflagging) an image, or messing with anything else for that matter, before you hand them your device, enter Presentation mode. You do this from Grid view by tapping on the Share icon in the upper-right corner of the screen, and from the pop-up menu that appears, choosing Present. Or, if you’re in Loupe view and want them to see your images starting with a particular image, tap that same icon, but choose Present from Here (as shown above). This hides all the controls, all the Loupe view icons, and most of the interface, so you’re safe to hand your tablet or phone over without worrying if they’re accidentally going to mess anything up. When they hand it back to you, tap the X icon in the top-left corner and it asks if you want to Exit Presentation Mode? Tap Yes, and you’re back in regular LR mobile.
