# Cross-Device Editing

When you edit in Luminar, your photos and adjustments are saved automatically to your private Luminar Space. When you open Luminar Neo on your desktop, your images will appear with every edit intact. You can refine, enhance, or transform without having to start over. There is no need to move files or rebuild adjustments. Everything simply follows you.

Edit your photos flawlessly, and then return to the main gallery view to check whether the synchronization is complete. The cloud in the top right corner will show the status of the sync progress.
