Hello Crystal_Opperman89,


You can check the status of uploads from iCloud Photos from your iPhone by taking these steps.


"How do I check the status of my uploads or downloads to iCloud Photos?

  1. Open the Photos app.
  2. Select the Library tab, then tap All Photos.
  3. Scroll to the bottom to see the status bar."


If you're still seeing a difference after all uploads we recommend ensuring everything is set up as needed. A complete guide to resolving most iCloud Photos issues can be found here: Get help with iCloud Photos - Apple Support


Cheers.

Hi Crystal_Opperman89,


Are you seeing you have enough iCloud Storage to complete the sync? The article here has more information to help you check: Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support


Also do you use iCloud Shared Photo Library? If so, you may need to switch between your Personal Library and Shared Library to view your additional photos.
