Can I share access to a Shared Album to another country?

I'm in New Zealand with most of my family here and I take advantage of the Shared Albums for family pics I want to share (and also use it as the screen saver on the TV, pretty cool!). But my mother is still in the UK. I've tried sharing the album with her, but it tells her that the country settings are wrong and she can't (probably shouldn't) change them.


Is there a way round this so she can access the photos we're uploading to iCloud? Looked around a fair bit, but can't find a straight answer.

Hi there, Kit Greer!


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you’re trying to share an album through iCloud with someone in a different country. Check out this article to Use Shared Albums in Photos. Just be sure you’re inviting others with their Apple ID email instead of their phone number.


Let me know if you continue to have issues and have a great day!
