Problems with iCloud

Hi. I connected to iCloud yesterday and i don’t know what’s wrong. I have too much photos and wanted to load them into iCloud but nothing changes. I have done everything correctly to the instructions on your official website but my photos just don’t load. I want to do it as fast as possible, because 33 Gb of photos is too much, and my phone in full. Need space to download one game :(

If you are using iCloud Photos, you aren’t actually off loading the photos into iCloud. They take up space in iCloud and still take up space on your device. iCloud is not archival storage. It is a syncing service.


You can optimize photos to save space or you can archive photos to a computer and then remove them from your device to make more space available.
