    Set up and use iCloud Photos

    iCloud Photos works with the Photos app to


    keep your photos and videos securely stored
    in iCloud, and up to date on your iPhone, iPad,
    iPod touch, Mac, Apple TV, and iCloud.com.

    How iCloud Photos works

    iCloud Photos automatically keeps every photo


    and video you take in iCloud, so you can access
    your library from any device, anytime you want.
    Any changes you make to your collection on one
    device change on your other devices too. Your
    photos and videos are organized into Years,
    Months, Days, and All Photos. And all of your
    Memories and People are updated everywhere.
    That way you can quickly find the moment,
    family member, or friend you're looking for.

    Your photos and videos are stored in iCloud in their


    original formats at full resolution. This includes HEIF,
    JPEG, RAW, PNG, GIF, TIFF, HEVC, and MP4 as well as
    special formats you capture with your iPhone or iPad, like
    slo-mo, time-lapse, 4K videos, and Live Photos. The
    photos and videos you capture with these devices are
    in HEIF and HEVC format. Depending on your internet
    speed, the time it takes for you to see your photos and
    videos on all of your devices and iCloud.com might vary.

    Turn on iCloud Photos

    Make sure that you set up iCloud and sign in to


    iCloud with the same Apple ID on all of your
    devices. If you have a PC, you need Windows 7
    or later and iCloud for Windows.

    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    W. Go to Settings > [your name].


    [. Tap iCloud.
    \. Tap Photos, then turn on iCloud Photos.

    On your Mac

    W. Choose Apple menu  > System Settings or


    choose Apple menu  > System Preferences.
    [. Click Apple ID. 
    \. Click iCloud in the sidebar, then select
    Photos. 

    On Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD

    your PC 

    What happens when you edit or


    delete photos

    When you edit or delete photos or videos, the


    changes are reflected across all of your devices.

    Edits show up on all of your devices

    When you make edits in the Photos app on your


    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch or on your Mac, the
    photo automatically updates across all your
    devices, including your Apple TV. So when you
    crop or enhance a photo from your iPhone, you
    see the changes when you access your library
    from your Mac. Your original photos and videos
    are stored in iCloud and you can go back to
    them at any time, and revert any changes you
    made.

    Photos delete from all of your devices

    When you delete photos and videos on one


    device, they're deleted everywhere that you use
    iCloud Photos. If you delete something
    accidentally, you can recovery it in the Recently
    Deleted folder for 30 days. After that, it's
    deleted permanently. 

    Download copies of your photos


    and videos

    When you turn on iCloud Photos, your photos


    and videos automatically upload to iCloud.
    They're not duplicated in your iCloud backup, so
    you should keep backup copies of your library.
    Use the steps below to download copies of your
    photos and videos to your Mac or PC. Or you
    can import your library to your Mac or PC. 

    Download your photos and videos from


    iCloud.com

    W. On iCloud.com, click Photos.


    [. Select the photos and videos that you want
    to download. 

    \. Click and hold the download button   in the


    upper-right corner of the window. If you want
    to download your content as it was originally
    captured or imported, choose Unmodified
    Original. For JPEG or H.264 format —
    including edits, and even if it was orginally
    in HEIF or HEVC format — choose Most
    Compatible.
    e. Click download.

    Download photos and videos from your


    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    W. Open the Photos app, then select one or


    more photos or videos. 

    [. Tap the share button  .


    \. Tap AirDrop, then select the device that you
    want to share with. Learn more about using
    AirDrop.

    For large numbers of photos, learn how to


    import your photos instead. 

    Download photos and videos from your Mac

    W. On your Mac, open the Photos app.


    [. Select one or more photos or videos. 
    \. Drag the content to your desktop, or Control-
    click and select Share > AirDrop.

    Make sure that you have enough


    storage

    The photos and videos that you keep in iCloud


    Photos use your iCloud storage and your device
    storage. And as long as you have enough space
    in iCloud and on your device, you can store as
    many photos and videos as you like. Learn more
    about iCloud storage and device storage.

    If you need more iCloud storage

    When you sign up for iCloud, you automatically


    get 5GB of free storage. If you need more
    space, and access to premium features, you can
    upgrade to iCloud+.

    Learn how to upgrade to iCloud+ 

    If you need to save space on your device

    iCloud Photos keeps all your photos and videos


    in their original, high-resolution version. To save
    storage space on your device, you can turn
    on Optimize Storage.

    If you turn on Optimize Storage, iCloud


    Photos automatically manages the size of your
    library on your device. Your original photos and
    videos are stored in iCloud and space-saving
    versions are kept on your device. Your library is
    optimized only when you need space, starting
    with the photos and videos you access least.
    You can download the original photos and
    videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need
    them.

    If you turn on Download Originals, iCloud Photos keeps


    your original, full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud
    and on your device.

    On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    W. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud.


    [. Tap Photos.
    \. Choose Optimize [device] Storage.

    On your Mac

    W. Open the Photos app and click Photos in the


    menu bar.
    [. Click Settings or click Preferences.
    \. Go to the iCloud tab and choose a storage
    setting.

    Pause library uploads to iCloud

    When you turn on iCloud Photos, the time it


    takes for your photos and videos to upload to
    iCloud depends on the size of your collection
    and your internet speed. If you have a large
    collection of photos and videos, your upload
    might take more time than usual. You can see
    the status and pause the upload for one day.

    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, open the


    Photos app, go to the Library tab, and tap All
    Photos. Then scroll to the bottom of your
    screen.
    On your Mac, open the Photos app. Select
    Library in the sidebar, then click All Photos in
    the list of tabs in the toolbar. Scroll to the
    bottom of your photos and click Pause.
