I add photos from my Macbook Pro to Photos, create albums and they don't sync on Icloud or iPhone.

I added a bunch of albums from an external hard drive to Photos on my Macbook Pro. However, the photos only stay there. I've already checked and syncing with ICloud for the Photos app is already active. Even so, I can't see the photos on the iPhone or in ICloud through the browser.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.1

If you open the Photos app on your Mac, click Library at the top of the sidebar and then scroll to the bottom of the main Photos window it should give the syncing status. What does that say?

Indeed, it was synchronising.

But it took a very long time, even though my connection was good.

MacOS was doing some optimizations and got in my way.

Thank you very much!
