iCloud not showing my albums

I have lots of photos on my iPad that I have organised in albums.

I now also got an iPhone.

All my photos sync okay via iCloud and show up on my new iPhone.

They are however all together in the library but they are not shown organised in the same albums that I had made on my iPad.

So all my photos from iPad synchronised to iPhone but do not show in the albums that I had made on iPad.

Does this mean that albums do not sync between devices ??

Give it a Few:

Being a new phone, wait a bit for it all to sync. It may take some time, his you have hundreds, or thousands of photos.

Sorry but you did not understood my problem.

All my photos are already synced fine via iCloud and I am able to see all my photos on my iPhone.

My problem is that on my iPhone all the photos show together in Library but are not organised in the same albums that I had made on my iPad.

So to find a photo on my iPhone, I have to scroll through all the photos and cannot just open any of my album with photos like I can on my iPad.
