my photo stream won't upload photos from 'recents'
it will only upload screen shots and photos from other apps to photo stream.
this means i can't save my photos to my back up devise (MacBook pro)
i have the latest software update... have photo stream turned on
I have done all the suggested fixes, but other works.
please help, this has already taken so much time to try and resolve.
iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15

all the best

Hi Mattttam2,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. To get My Photo Stream updating recent photos again try the steps here:
"Make sure that your Mac is connected to the internet.
From your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click iCloud. Make sure that you're signed in with the same Apple ID on all of your supported devices.
Open the Photos app. Then choose Photos > Preferences. Click iCloud (or Photo Stream).
Make sure that My Photo Stream is selected. If you don't see this option, turn on iCloud Photos to keep your photos and videos in iCloud instead.
On the device that captured the photo that you're looking for, close the Camera app. (Nothing uploads to My Photo Stream until you do.)"
If My Photo Stream isn't updating - Apple Support
If these steps don't work, reach out to us directly: Get Support
We hope this helps.
Cheers!
Mattttam2,
Glad to hear that helped!
Take care.
