Hi guys

I have a weird question..I want to be able to upload everything onto iCloud from my Mac and iPhone but without it also downloading everything onto my iPhone once it’s on the cloud. I’ve turned off photo sharing. I want to be able to see everything Both from my Mac and iPhone on the cloud without it taking up space on my iPhone as well.

thanks

Hey there,


If you want your photos just on the cloud and not on your phone go to settings>photos and click 'optimise phone storage' this will keep all your photos in the cloud without downloading photo onto your phone.


Aswell as this, try reading this article for any clarification: Set up and use iCloud Photos – Apple Supporthttps://support.apple.com › en-gb.
