why was this video more about the actual photos app ,camera and how save space on your phone than icloud photos and how it works,, thought he was gonna talk about how to access them after you back them on icloud but he didn't lol
Once they’re backed up to iCloud, they’re accessible on all your devices by turning on “iCloud photos” toggle in settings on the respective device. You can also see your entire library at iCloud.com
I think he’s just accurately representing how iCloud photos work. However, I agree with you on this issue, it’s an issue on the side of iCloud though. I don’t want every single file to automatically backup and be expressed on every single device, I want it accessible from a separate app in which I specifically control every aspect of management, not automatically. I think Amazon photos does a much better job if you’re wanting any kind of command over what it’s doing.
Me too
I can’t find my files in the actual cloud on my laptop access
@@hannanathan564 I agree that Amazon Photos provides more control, but they also charge extra for video backup past a minimal size. So I like Amazon’s feature of purely backing up photos. I know that all my photos, good or bad, are safely backed up to Amazon. But iCloud Photos does backup all my videos. So since I have the space with my Apple One subscription, I plan to use both iCloud and Amazon Prime Photos since iCloud Photos will delete a photo from everywhere if I delete it from my Phone and Amazon Photos won’t do that.

What I hate about iPhones are when I create new photo folders, and move the photos to that folder, but it's actually more like a shortcut. the photos will always remain in the main library.
100% agree
Because Albums are like Playlists. Ist literally says library. There is just everything in chronological order. Why would you remove the pictures there and break the orgnisation?
@@comedianjamie then what if I got nsfw images if someone wants to scroll my library?
@@zadisma then you can hide them, or move / copy them to the notes app 😀 (in both cases you can lock the images with a password / Face ID) 😉
(locking hidden Fotos // showing the hidden Album you can enable in settings)
That’s a feature I actually like.
I’m trying to figure out how to change my “Me” photo in my one shared photo album instead of the sad depressing one sitting on piano bench.
Very good video, I’ve had my phone for a couple of yrs and learned new stuff today! Thank u
Hi Michael. Thank you for sharing. Can you tell me please. How can I remove items from iCloud? I’d like to free up some storage. Does iCloud just keep syncing like a backup. Put older new files on top of older etc. not just photos. I’ve been trying to learn about this and can’t find what I’m looking for. Thank you for your time
Interesting video. I'm using an older version of iPhoto I got with an eMac I had years ago. Is there an upgrade for iPhoto that can be purchased for OS High Sierra 10.13.6? I've been told the computer I have can't be upgraded. Same problem with my iTunes. Is there a newer version log any of these? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you, that is the information I needed!
Great video! Very informative.
What’s the difference between optimized iPhone storage vs download and keep originals??
So very helpful! Thank you!
YESSS Is that information button new? I can finally see the name of my files. I feel like I never could before unless I just didn’t know how to do it.
THank you so much , learned much.
Hooo I have a 64gigs version this helped me a lottt….thanks mate
Michael, thank you for a brilliant and clear video on iCloud. Wondering if I can ask for you advice. I have 1TB of photos and videos on Onedrive. I own a MacBook (128gb storage) and an iPhone which is similar. Ideally I'd like to download my media from OneDrive to my MacBook in chunks and then move them to iCloud for easier access on my devices. However when I tried this I found that when I had uploaded the photos to iCloud and then deleted them from my MacBook to free space to download another chunk, iCloud also deleted what I had just uploaded. Am I missing a trick?!
Thanks for your comment Paul. I would try downloading the OneDrive application for Mac, and using the chunks method, drag your media out to your desktop, then bring them into the photos app from there. Another method would be just buying a cheap hard drive for the photo transfer, and either keep the hard drive for other uses, or you could probably just return it when you’re done with it
Thanks pal…very interesting.
Great Video well worth my time thanks
Hi! Hope someone can help with my question.
Will the photos on my iphone library viewer be in a noticeable worser resultion, If i have chosen to optimize my iphone storage by using the icloud photos feature?
I mean that the icloud photos feature promises to keep my original photos in the original resultion and great quality in icloud photos, and it certainly clears up some space on my iphone storage. And thats what makes me wondering, if the pictures im then seeing on my phone now (with icloud photos storage enabled) - are these then in a worser reultion and quality, than if i just downloaded the originals to my iphone storage?
Now it is enabled and evertime i scroll trough my photos it seems like it is loading for a little secund, (sort of) and its looks like the photo i a little blurry at the start, but after that little secund it seems like its in a really great resolution. So does that little loading time actually download the full resultion picture from my icloud storage, just when im looking at it? And forgets it again as i close the photo album?
I just want to be able to watch my photos in full quality 😅
Hope you can answer my question.
Hey man should you defo use iCloud photos on do I use download and keep original or optimise storage or should I have it turned off?
Hi Michael, I have around the same number of photos as you do. None are on the cloud. I transfer them to my pc and then sync it to my library back into the phone through iTunes. My question is that will the battery drain quickly if the phone has to curate all these photos in the background?
tx much! this did indeed help
Hi Michael! Can I ask what if I uploaded 5000 photos on iCloud after that 2months I delete some UNUSE screenshots then photos on my phone be like 4000 photos. So how about photos on iCloud it will be 4000 updated or it will be 5000 same as first time and I have to delete unuse screenshots on iCloud again?
Thanksss🤟
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I wanted to know how to keep photos on icloud but delete from phone, or would I have to buy a physical storage device to be able to delete?
What about deleted pictures? So do deleted videos or pictures save as well or only the current ones?
I was looking for much more about storage. Like is it possible to keep a photo on phone WITHOUT is showing up on other devices or cloud? Im not sure thats even possible
I’m curious if I were to lose my phone and have to buy a new one would I be able to recover photos on iCloud storage if they were only on my phone that I had lost with say the new phone that I bought?
Hi everyone
How long does iCloud Photo Library store the temporary download in phone storage as in camera roll
thank you ever so much !!!
Thanks for the explanation, 1 video says more than 1 milion Apple pages :)
Boo to the haters... I learned so much within the first several minutes! Thanks!
It has nothing, really nothing!, to do with hate.
Let’s be honest when talking about organize photos. Many people want organize photos in folders or in albums.
And when move a photo to another folder or album, then it has to be really moving. That is what many people expected.
But the situation is different. The photos stay always in the camera roll/photo library. Definitely not everyone (including me) likes that.
@@Kluivertnr1 Eh you're wrong. You can organize photos in folders and albums. It is moving. It's not duplicating a photo if you put it in an album. It's not taking up more storage space by doing so. It is the same as all other photo apps. What do you mean the photos stay always in the camera roll/photo library? That's the point... The Library shows you all your photos and videos in chronological order. While albums and folders you create can sort the images. It doesn't duplicate the image, acting like you have two of them.
The same photo can be added to multiple albums without increasing the amount of storage used on your device. This is because albums in Apple Photos are essentially virtual collections or pointers to the photos in your library, not separate files.
can i only have it turned on on my macbook so my iphone camera roll isn't connected? because i have a lot of random stuff on my phone so i always airdrop the pics i wanna keep to my macbook but my macbook is running out of storage 😅
If I optimize my iPhone storage will my photos and videos be the same quality as the original when I view them in the photos app on iPhone????? I am asking because when I view my iCloud photos online through safari or the internet on my PC the videos appear very blurry. Please help??????
Do you recommend that I enable iCloud Photos or does that not save any storage?
I’m a 12 pro user mostly clicking photos in RAW, when I upload the raw photos to files (iCloud drive) it is not saving in actual size actual photo is 30mb but it is uploading around 3-5 mb this I’m experiencing from past 1 month previously original size was getting uploaded on iCloud Drive can u help me?
Thank you
hey so if the icloud photos is turned on, those thousand of pics will not take your iPhone internal storage and instead fill the icloud one?
Please answer me i dont know what to do I have 200gb of icloud and my phone storage is 128gb and my vidoes and photos is almost 110gb because a lot of videos is 4k quality i try what you say but why my avail storage is keeping decreasing the avail space? Im just sync my photos and vids to icloud. If all photos and video are sync to my icloud it will reduce the phone storage? Is that right? Please i hope to get a respone from you
Can you talk about how to organise icould menu bar
hi, what if i turn back on my icloud photos, and my phone has no more storage, will it attempt to upload my new photos to the icloud? Will I also be able to see all the photos from the icloud on my phone?
What I don’t understand. Is how to keep photos in iCloud only to free up space on my phone?
I'm having trouble understanding this. I have four family members. Each of us wants to back up our photos to iCloud in case we need to restore our phones. But we don't want each other's photos to appear on all of our devices. How do we create backups but not share photos? Thank you!
anyone know how to sort or find all the photos which aren't in an album yet? (in the new iOS 17), i adore sorting all my photos into albums especially because it makes it so much easier to find everything, now switching from Samsung to iPhone I'm lacking this feature to easily find these photos.
I had an old iPhone, my 11 but that’s been disabled as I lost the pass lock, my new iPhone which I use currently has iCloud photos toggle on, the new device which I did have linked was my old disabled phone, so I’m thinking where else can iCloud photos be sent to if my other device isn’t active. Pls help thank you
so if my “download originals” is on. that means they’re save to my phone? i also have i cloud on. so confusing. if i delete from i cloud will it delete from phone?
conversely if i delete from phone does it delete from i cloud? lol
basically do i need to just download he’s copies to computer and then to a hard drive?
How did you get Weather and Calendar to stay open in a larger view option in the home screen?
Widgets.
I have 190gb photos in my iphone storage. If i sync into icloud all the photos, does it will free my iphone space?
Thanks...good video ! I do have a rather basic question. On my phone I can also view my photos by clicking on the Camera icon. Does this mean I have my photos in two places...Camera and the icloud ? I am reaching my icloud limit and have lots in my Camera. So wondering if I remove photos from either icloud or Camera, will they be deleted from the other ? Thanks
Man I’m going through the same thing I’m so confused. I just bought icloud and I wan to just transfer everything from my phone to iCloud to then clean out my phone and start fresh. Every video I find is the exact same thing
@@allcityink bro solved? Can yoh tell me the solution?
Every time you take a photo, it will automatically go to your photos app. The photos the camera app is your camera roll, which is just your recent photos you took on said device. If you remove a photo or video from either the photos app or camera roll, it will be deleted from the device all together. Your camera roll just takes photos from your photos app, it isn’t two separate storages that both take up space.
When I go through settings and into Photos, there is no iCloud toggle. Could that have been turned off somehow? I’m on iOS 16.2
My iCloud is turned off. My photos back up is turned off. However lately whenever I am trying to post a video on some thing it says downloading from iCloud. Maybe that’s an error I don’t know. But it’s weird in me out I check my settings again and I don’t have anything in iCloud
Hi michael thanks for your helpful videos
I have a very important question
If I lost my iphone and buy new iphone and already had them backup in my iCloud it will sort them by my albums like my old phone or no please please please help me🙏
Yeah if you buy a new iPhone, it will automatically sync those photo’s into your new device, including your albums and folders, favorites, and Memories.
7:49 im actually a videographer and i often shoot videos using my iphone 13 promax. I just found of about this optimize and keep the original. Since my phone is default at optimize iphone storage, i lost my videos in last years and when i try to look up in my icloud, it’s not there as well. This is so sad. I want to edit last years videos but couldn’t retrieve any of those. 😢 so im gonna select keep original after this
If i take a photo and upload to iPhotos and then i upload another photo into iPhotoss via desktop, does that photo from iphotos take space on my iphone?
Thank you for the video. I would be interested in the following. Suppose the memory of my iPhone is full and you do NOT want to optimise the memory. Is it possible to tell the iCloud/iPhone memory that everything older than x months/years will be deleted on the iPhone, but will remain in the iCloud? Up to now, I would have understood iCloud to mean that the photos are synchronised and that this is not an archive. If photos are deleted on the iPhone, they are also deleted in the iCloud. I haven't found a solution for this yet (even though I'm still far away from it, I'd be interested to know how to deal with it). Thanks 🙂
Hopefully you will see my answer to you
How do I set it up so my photos library on my phone only shows what I have saved on the iPhone storage and not include what’s in the cloud? I had it set up this way so anytime I deleted a photo on my phone it would still be on the cloud but now everything on the cloud appears in my iPhone
Question: Can i choose which month / year of the photos i want to add it to iPhone camera roll?
Good question. I don’t think so. Apple thinks very strange in some ways.
I have a video I sent from another iPhone to MY iPAD! It was a video I wanted to send in an iMessage, so I did, and It was like an eleven hour video. It's been uploading since yesterday morning! How do I see the percentage, or some progress bar? I mean I immediately deleted it from the other iPhone from another account, but I deleted the video from that iPhone and on MY iPad, It's been uploading since yesterday morning! PLEASE HELP!
Hi Michael, unfortunately iCloud Photos doesn’t show you the full resolution video or picture when you click on it as it’s optimised for your viewing. You only seem to get your 4K video if you click edit. Then it downloads. Hope you know a better way. Cheers for your video.
Hello, I would like to know how to coordinate the photos and videos I cancel on my iPhone with iCloud. At present, after canceling these on iPhone I have to repeat the operation on ICloud for every single photo and video I throw away. How can I have iCloud do it in a synchronized automatic way?
It should be possible to make the uploading to the cloud only for manually selected photos.
Yes. I think the way to do is using one of your devices without an Apple and an other device with an Apple ID.
I cant pay for the icloud anymore but i want all my photos that are in the cloud, so i was wondering if i disable iCloud photos and basically delete all of them from the cloud and keep only in my iphone, how can i do that? How can i download all of them? I have 240 gb of free space, so storage is not s problem.
Obs.: i need space, my icloud is full right now, so i want to free space from the icloud, so I’d let disable icloud photo library
Hello Michael,
I just bought 2tb storage from iCloud and started saving my 14000 photoessays and videos, how will I know that it’s all got saved in iCloud along with my all other data.
Regards
Hi sir, im a little bit confused. Currently im using iphone with 128gb storage.
Does this mean my 200gb icloud plan only can be utilized up to 128gb?
Or i can continue taking pictures/videos after 128gb full without deleting the old one?
Thank you
Any answer ?
My question as well
I just got a new iPad. If I turn off iCloud Photos on that iPad would it stop all my photos from sharing on iCloud for all my devices or just on the iPad I turned iCloud Photos off?
Thank you this had been helpful
It’s not so simple to get in contact with Apple so I thought I’d try UA-cam.
I backed up my iPhone 6s last night to prepare to transfer to iPhone 13
My photos are my prized possession when it comes to my phone, I have about 95GB (so my phone DID say)
When I went to the iCloud backup screen and went to photos to turn them on, I *turned off* the option to ‘upload to photo stream’
My photos storage has now went down to 52GB
And all of a sudden, the 128GB I was using, has now drastically decreased to 70?!
Therefore I just wanted confirmation of turning off ‘upload to photo stream’ won’t affect any photo being missed out of the backup, considering the amount my storage dropped 😳
Please help if you know!
Many Thanks!
Is there a way i can delete photos from iphone but keep it on icloud ?
Thanks.
how do i delete few pics taken on my i phone and still keep them on I cloud ?
Yah but how can I take every Photo that I had bake, because i deleted all my Photos on the old phone but then I remember that I took all the photos with my old phone so I deleted every Single photo that I had can u pls do a vid for that question pls? And sorry for my bad English
Hi Michael thank you for the explanation!! But I want to ask something. So, I just buy icloud storage for 50gb. Beforehand, I don’t backup my photos on icloud. So, I just back up all my photos to icloud storage (about 20gb). I think after I backup it to icloud, the memory on iphone storage (photos) will automatically decrease (after I turn on the Icloud photo library). But, the reality is my iphone storage still full and the size of my photos on my iphone storage still 20gb. Or the synchronization is not done yet? What should I do? Thank you😊
Same here
You turn on optimize iPhone storage
I have my iPhone set for iCloud photos, I even bought extra space, but I can’t see that any photos are going to my iCloud. Where do I go to view iCloud photos? I also have photo stream on. I lose a lot of photos, I delete them off my phone to save memory but they aren’t in iCloud. Occasionally I’ll have batches of photos disappear completely randomly too. Ugh!
Hey, thanks for the video. I also want to know how to upload to icloud than delete in your phone to open up storage. I looked up on internet and saw some info like "Turn off 'iCloud Photos' and choose 'Remove from iPhone'. But there is catch up, if you turn on 'iCloud Photos' again and your phone is empty, if you delete all data from icloud.". This is really scary for me. Can you guide me on this?
Your iCloud Photos will always download on your device on less you turn off iCloud
So I got 128GB on my iPhone and have the 50GB/ month plan. So what does that mean? Can I delete photos on my iPhone but the photos I deleted will be saved in the cloud? I just wanna save space on my phone but ofc not delete them forever.
This is perfectly possible. Via the File app. For example photos from a holiday, that you want saved in icloud ánd delete from your iphone.
Go to the Photo app and select the photos of the holiday. Click on the share button and scroll down till you find ‘save in Files’. Now choose the location. On your device or in icloud drive. Also it’s possible to create a folder by clicking on the folder+ icon.
When done, in the Photo app you can delete the photos you selected for the holiday (also in the bin of the Photo App)
In the File app, on your left you see locations. That’s the place where to find the photos.
On this way you can save space on your iphone.
Hopefully this is helpful for you.
When deleting photos on my phone, do they automatically delete on iCloud as well?
Yes
Not necessarily. The big thing is that you múst use the File app. Move all your photos, via the share button and the save in Files option, to the File app. One big advantage of the File app is that you can make folders. When the photos are moved to the File app, you can delete the photos in the Photo app. Before i forget. In the File app you can choose if you want save the photos on your device or on icloud drive.
what happens to your photos If you didnt renew your icloud?
Most likely delete photos that are not in the base 5G of storage after 30 days.
If I chose "Optimize iPhone Storage" - do I have the opportunity to edit videos afterwards? I mean videos that have been uploaded into the iCloud already?
Yeah of course
Icloud Photos is a nightmare on devices with only 32GB of space like my iPhone 7+
With icloud photos i can have 50-200GB of photos in the cloud but the drawback is no matter of i have 5GB of photos or 200GB of photos there they will occupy 5GB of space on the phone physically to hold previews etc, and it increases the "other data" even more so the last two years i have had 7.38GB of IOS size, 14-15GB of other data, 5-6GB of space taken by photos app, so i only have 28/32GB used before any apps and i have almost all apps offloaded that i have to download when i use them and basically have 1-2GB free and the photos space and other data fluctuates pretty randomly so almost every day i end up with storage full messages and the high resolution photos don't even load or work in apps unless there's 1.6gb of free space.
So i got stopped using icloud photos because it's only a total nightmare on a 32gb device. It's so bad there should be a warning to not use it with 32gb.
I bought a Pbotostick Omni and tried to save all my photo to the Photostick. After plugged in the Stick into my phone, all the instruction, it doesn't transfer any photos to the stick, it says the iCloud is Empty, I went to the Settings of the phone, it says all photos has uploaded, but why it is empty.
Is it possible to add some photos taken from a different device to icould and eventually have it available on the iphone too? I recently switched from android and I have bunch of photos and videos which i want on my icloud and iphone . Please let me know how can this be done.
iOS devices will always sync with each other, as long as you turn on iCloud.
Hi michael. If i upload all the pictures on my phone to icloud. Then after that i delete some pictures on my phone It will affect that pictures to my icloud.? I mean it will deleted also?
Yes
If I delete photos while on iCloud photos can I get them back?
Hello Michael are you going to answer the questions?
But. I don’t understand? If I delete pictures from my photos app will they still be on iCloud, I’d like to do this to save storage on my phone can someone let me know
can i still save files or pictures if i turn off icloud?
Hi Michael, Your video is very informative. I have a question you might be able to answer.
I have an IPad & an iPhone that share the photos with iCloud. When I delete my photos in the iPad it says that my photo will be deleted from other devices, but the iPhone still has the photo and when they are both connected to wifi, the photo comes back to the ipad. Why does it do that?
Thanks in advance 🙂
Maybe you have some option enabled on one of the devices that keeps them locally and that keeps uploading the photo to icloud again :)
I got the 200 gb plan and when syncing my photos and automatically backing up my phone it used up 100gb which is a scam cause it’s not done syncing it’s just gonna use all of the storage when I bought my phone comes with 175gb so it’s only gonna leave me with a few gb how do I fix that
How do I do if the picture is not on iCloud, I scroll down and the little cloud i's crossed. And it's not showing on my computer.
Anyway iPhone can promptly tell which ones of those photos are clicked from my iPhone and which ones are screenshots / WhatsApp messages, etc.?
My iPhone storage is full but my iCloud has plenty of space !! It’s stressful
I am trying to load photos to iCloud and it wants to delete 11,000 photos from Finder. Can you use both? I want to clear them off my phone, not delete them from other places. The photos keep duplicating. I moved them all off and deleted them a month ago over 6000 photos, they are duplicating and filling up my phone again. :( 😧
Brother my iPhone was water-damaged a few days ago (and all of my data lost like photos & videos), I used free 5GB iCloud for some photos and videos after that I didn't upgrade my storage. Now If I upgrade iCloud is it possible to get all photos and videos from my iPhone by syncing through my Windows PC 🤧😭
I wonder what the difference between 'cellular data' and 'unlimited uploads' is? The former still sounds like it's going to eat through data - what uploads does it not do?
Can you delete photos from iCloud and if so how?
If my photos is synced with iCloud storage and i delete a picture from the phone, will it delete from icloud too? If no, how do i keep the setting to act similar?
It will also delete from icloud. Very frustrated. I know. There is a way to solve this.
The first step is to move your photos from the photo app to the file app. Not all together.
For example from a period like a holiday.
In the photo app > 1) select the photos 2) click on the share button 3) search for ‘save in files’ 4) choose a location in files °on your device° or °in icloud drive° so you choose icloud drive 5) eventually make a folder where you put the photos
The last thing you do: go back to the photo app, delete the holiday photos (also check the bin or recently deleted photos)
I have 2TB iCloud storage. And 258GB on my iphone. But everytime I edit photos on my snapseed, it says could not load photos or error loading.. I already updated my IOS. But still it’s error.. please help.
This is only photos you take right and not.. screenshots or screen recordings correct?
My question is if I delete all the photos on my device will they still be available on iCloud? I have problems with downloading the iCloud photos and can’t even post them because they won’t download
Google drive em that’s what I did
If I take a picture on my iphone and upload it to iCloud is it still taking up storage on my iPhone?
Yes you don’t manually upload anything to the cloud. It does it automatically as a back up. It’s not additional storage for your phone. However as you can see in those settings, you can set it to where your phone will only keep the lower quality version on the device if you’re getting close to running out of storage.
This is my understanding anyway.
I have a shared album on my MacBook Air. It's not showing up on my iPhone or on iCloud. Can you please explain what might be happening ?
Figured half of my question out: shared albums do not show up in iCloud. It is not my issue but a universal issue.
If you delete photo on the phone does it delete from the iCloud library?
Yes and that is imo a big problem.
I cant pay for the icloud anymore but i want all my photos that are in the cloud, so i was wondering if i disable iCloud photos and basically delete all of them from the cloud and keep only in my iphone, how can i do that? How can i download all of them? I have 240 gb of free space, so storage is not s problem
locally save photos and delete from icloud. So I'm trying to delete some photos from iCloud but keep them stored locally on my Mac (and ideally iOS devices but that doesn't really matter so much). Is there a way to do this? All research I've done shows me how to delete the photos locally but keep them on iCloud! The easiest way to do this is to make an album into which you put all photos that you want to keep, then drag and drop them from Photos into a folder on your hard drive. After the copy has finished, right-click on the photos in the album then choose Delete (not Remove from Album as that won't delete them from the library). This will remove them from iCloud as well.
Keeping them on the iOS devices is trickier as there's no separate area to store them. You could create a shared album in Photos, copying the photos into it before deleting them from the regular album. (Shared albums are not included in your regular Photos library, so they won't be copied back to your iCloud Photo Library.) This would then make them available on the Shared tab of any iOS devices that use the same Apple ID, or any users you invite to the shared album for that matter.
