iCloud Photo Library
iCloud Photo Library gives you access to your photos and videos on any iOS 8.1
or later device, Mac with OS X Yosemite v10.10.3 or later, and on iCloud.com
using the same Apple ID. You can make changes to photos and videos in the
Photos app, preserve both the original and edited versions, and see the changes
updated across your devices (see Edit photos and trim videos (on page) ). Store
as many photos and videos as your iCloud storage plan allows.
Note: If you turn on iCloud Photo Library, you can’t use iTunes to sync photos
and videos to iPad.
Turn on iCloud Photo Library.
Go to Settings > iCloud > Photos. Or go to Settings > Photos & Camera.
View photos and videos in iCloud Photo Library.
In addition to viewing your photos and videos in the Photos tab, organized by
Years, Collections, and Moments, you can also view them as a continuous
stream, organized by date added, in the All Photos album.
Choose to optimize your storage or keep all your photos and videos in full-
resolution on iPad.
If your iCloud storage plan is over 5 GB, Optimize iPad Storage is on by default.
It manages your storage by automatically keeping your full-resolution photos
and videos in iCloud and lightweight versions on your iPad, as space is needed.
Tap Download and Keep Originals to keep your full-resolution originals on your
iPad. Your originals are always stored in iCloud.
Download a full-resolution photo or video.
If you’re not storing original versions on iPad, simply pinch to zoom in to 100%,
or tap Edit.
Note: To upload photos and videos to iCloud Photo Library, iPad must be
connected to the Internet. Using a cellular connection on iPad cellular models,
you can download up to 100 MB at a time.
If your uploaded photos and videos exceed your storage plan, you can upgrade
your iCloud storage. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Change Storage Plan
to learn about the available options.
My Photo Stream
My Photo Stream, turned on by default, automatically uploads new photos and
videos to your other devices that use My Photo Stream.
Turn My Photo Stream on or off.
Go to Settings > Photos & Camera, or Settings > iCloud > Photos.
Note: Photos stored in iCloud count against your total iCloud storage, but
photos uploaded to My Photo Stream don’t count additionally against your
iCloud storage.
Use My Photo Stream without iCloud Photo Library.
Photos and videos you take with iPad are added to the My Photo Stream album
