The photos that are on my iphone in "Photos" - are they part of Photo Stream or will they still stay on my phone? Are my "albums" within "Photos" going to stay? I guess I don't really understand what "photo stream" is. Thanks for any guidance!

It would be only the case where you have an album named "My Photo Stream". It would be in the same location as your other albums by going to the Photos app and choosing Albums on the bottom Tab Bar.


It is likely you do not have the My Photo Stream album, then you will not be affected at all. No other Albums in Photos will be changed.
