I am a membership clerk. I was taking photos of the youth and uploading them to LDS.org. The pictures uploaded OK and then showed up on LDSTOOLS. Now I can upload them and they show in LDS.org but not on my Android devices. They do show up on my wife's iPad mini. My phone is Note 5 with android 6.0.1
Any ideas?
Photos on LDs.ORG, But not on LDS TOOLS

What version of LDS Tools are you running? You can try the newest beta version here if you like to see if it helps: http://tech.lds.org/dl/android/ It's working well for me.

There as a recent transition in photo services. The photos might have gone into the new service - but I don't know what service LDS Tools pulls from. It would have to be up to date to pull from the current service, so make sure you have the current version of LDS Tools.

Re: Photos on LDs.ORG, But not on LDS TOOLS
I've recently had troubles with photos as well. Yesterday I updated the pictures for my family and I'm baffled at the results. I uploaded my household photo and photo of my daughter via lds.org. I uploaded individual photos for my wife and I via the Android 3.1.0-BETA app.
lds.org "My Household" now shows:
Android app 3.1.0-BETA shows:
This is unacceptable. I've synced the apps multiple times to see if it'd fix the photo issues with no luck. As I'm an approver in the ward for uploaded photos I've verified there are no pending photos awaiting approval. I'd at least expect lds.org to properly show the photos. Not having consistency showing photos between different versions of the app, assuming that's why the iPhone has the old household photo, is poor programming and/or software design.

- Household photo - yes
- My photo - missing
- Wife's photo - missing
- Daughter's photo - I had to try a few times but it eventually assigned to my daughter and was showing last night for a bit but now it's missing.
