Backing your phone up to icloud and syncing to icloud are 2 totally different things.


Read backing up to icloud What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support the backup can't be viewed.


Read syncing to icloud Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support what you sync to icloud isn't part of the icloud backup.


Not sure what 3 weeks of info you've read.
