I take lots of pictures and store them on my photos app on my phone. I received an email saying that the photos app is going away and Apple will be using iCloud Photos. I have read details into this and still do not understand. Can someone please help me? I don't want to lose all my photos. I thought the photos app and iCloud Photos was the same thing
The Photos app is not going away. iCloud Photos is not going away.
The only thing being discontinued is "My Photo Stream."
Following is a short description of My Photo Strem from My Photo Stream - Apple Support
My Photo Stream uploads your most recent photos (except Live Photos) so that you can view and import them to another device, if you like. Photos are stored in My Photo Stream for 30 days and then are deleted from iCloud
