I have a question about iCloud. I recently accidentally turned off my iCloud photos and all my photos uploaded back to my iPhone and now when I turn it on my photos upload to iCloud but the photos are still on my iPhone too and take 3 GB of space both in my iPhone and iCloud.

iPhone 12, iOS 15

All my Photos went to iPhone storage when sighed out of iCloud Hi, I sighed out of iCloud then later sighed back in. Then doing this caused all my photos to move into my iPhone storage and if I want to turn on iCloud it comes up with a message saying on my iPhone “this phone is storing 33.3gb of photos and videos and you currently have 4.07gb available” I had 4.07gb available before I sighed out of my iCloud but now all my photos have copied on my iPhone and can’t turn on iCloud photos. How could I turn on my iCloud photos back on?

Photos on iCloud and iPhone My photos on iphone used up too much storage. So recently i bought iCloud storage, hoping that after uploading the photos I could free up some space on the iphone. And that was what I did. After uploading the pictures to iCloud, I deleted them from the iPhone. i just realized that this operation deleted all my photos from iCloud as well. :( :( My questions: is it possible to get the deleted photos back? How? what is the proper way to store photos on iCloud but not on the iphone? Thank you!

Icloud I recently loaded all my photos onto Icloud from two different devices. My ipad and also my Iphone. I then wanted to free up space on ipad so deleted some photos from the actual device. I noticed it actually deleted the photos from my cloud and my iphone too. Is there a way to recover these photos and prevent photos from being deleted from the cloud when i delete them from 1 of my devices to save space?
