iOS camera roll is not in sync with Photos App
I recently imported a large Photos Library into my current one, then and added most of those pics to my Shared iCloud Library. Ever since then, all of the iOS devices camera rolls that can access the Shared iCloud Library (mine and family members) do NOT display photos from their respective personal libraries in chronological order. Images DO show up as expected in the Photos App.
The first dozen or so photos are from the personal library and are listed in the order taken, up until the date of the iCloud Shared Library import. After that, all of the camera roll images are out of order and are mostly from the shared library. As a bonus, many of them are Live Photos /headscratch.
I have tried the following:
- Turning off iCloud photo sharing
- Removing users from the Shared Library
- Wiped a device completely (did NOT restore from backup)
All of the above results in the same out of order, shared library images popping back into the camera roll once images are pulled back down onto the devices from iCloud.
All that to say, shouldn't images be added to the device's camera roll, in the same "day the image was taken" fashion currently in the Photos app?
Hoping I'm not alone on this issue, and that Apple is aware and there is a fix coming outside of deleting the Shared iCloud Library altogether?
