My photo stream

Does this change on July 26 mean I lose all my pictures in Photos? Also, is photos being discontinued? Library doesn’t come up when I open photos on my iPad.

iPad, iPadOS 16

The very old My Photo Stream service is being closed-down by Apple:

Information about the My Photo Stream shutdown - Apple Support


My Photo Stream has been replaced by the far superior iCloud Photos:

Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support


All photos that are stored within iCloud Photos will continue to be available to you. If you haven’t done so already, you can enable iCloud Photos for your iPad from settings:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > Photos > Sync This iPad - set to ON
