Icloud photos don’t sync to macbook with iphone hotspot

How can I sync icloud photos to macbook with iphone hot spot?


Syncing is working with other wifis, but with iphone hotspot it wont sync. Everything else is working just as hot spot would be normal wifi. As it is.


This seems to be weird Apples decision?


Here in Europe we have unlimited fast dataconnection in every phone. so its normal to use hotspot as normal wifi without limitations. When i’m travelling and at sommer cottage i maid be weeks out of other wifis than my hotspot. Do i really have no way to get my photos thtough hotspot? Any work arounds?


Our home data connection also is typically mobile connection even though in those sim card is inside the wifi station and iphone cant figure out its also mobile connection. Weird if mobile data in phone works and mobile data works if it’s inside wifi station, and it works if it is through hot spot in no-iphone, but if it is through hot spot in iphone it also works except that you cant get your photos from icloud photos. Can anyone explain what kind of Californian logic has came to this outcome?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.4
