HI and Tks but what am saying here is the pics are already in iCloud but trying to free space on my phone I wanted to delete some pics but found out they were been deleted also on the cloud . Isnt there a way I can keep the ones on cloud when I delete them on my phone ?
iCloud Photo Library is designed as a syncing option rather than a cloud storage option. If you want a true cloud storage service where you can store your pics in the cloud and delete them on the phone, you would be better served by 3rd party storage services like Dropbox or the like. With those you can store pics on the cloud and delete them from the phone without losing the cloud versions.
