Add Folders to iCloud

I have photos categorized in Folders. Is there a way to add the folders so they maintain my organization? I have thousands of photos and putting them in a single repository is not efficient.

I do not see a way to add the photos without going into each folder and adding the individual photos to iCloud. I then end up with one giant folder of photos that are all mixed up. Which doesn't do me any good.

Directly to iCloud, there is no to keep folder based organization. iCloud photos is not a full featured photo app.


If you have a Mac, you can import your folders to the macOS Photos app and if synced with iCloud Photos they will be kept in albums that match.
