Can't see full content of a shared Photo album

Hello, a friend shared with me an album but when I open it I see only approx. 1/3 of photos/videos he actually shared. We both have enough iCloud space, our phones have fully charged batteries, even connected to charging but situation remains the same. Any suggestions?

Hi rado1877,

welcome to the Apple (user-to-user Community.


Wondering which iOS version you are using on your iPhone XS Max

and

if you have enough memory / storage free on your iPhone for it to operate smoothly


and / or

whether you are using an up-to-date browser to view the photos:

"Your photos publish to a website that anyone can see in an up-to-date web browser".

If it is an iCloud Shared Library:

All the best :-)
