Hello,
Since you have iCloud Photos turned on and a message that it is not updating, I am wondering if Low Data Mode or Low Power Mode are in play. If you have your iPhone plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi does the update continue?
Use Low Data Mode on your iPhone and iPad - Apple Support
"Different apps use different ways of reducing data usage in Low Data Mode. In general, here's what you can expect:
- Apps might stop using network data when you're not actively using them.
- Background App Refresh is turned off.
- The quality of streaming content might be reduced.
- Automatic downloads and backups are turned off.
- Services such as iCloud Photos pause updates."
Use Low Power Mode to save battery life on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
"Low Power Mode reduces or affects these features:
- 5G (except for video streaming) on iPhone 12 models1
- Auto-Lock (defaults to 30 seconds)
- Display brightness
- Display refresh rate (limited up to 60 Hz) on iPhone and iPad models with ProMotion display2
- Some visual effects
- iCloud Photos (temporarily paused)
- Automatic downloads
- Email fetch
- Background app refresh"
I hope this helps.
