Hello be259,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. We'd like to assist you with this issue. If you're unable to view or access Shared Albums, let's follow the steps below:


1.) Make make sure you're using the latest iOS version: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

2.) Double check your settings and confirm you're currently signed in with your Apple ID: Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support

3.) If everything looks good, then navigate to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos and turn off Shared Albums.

4.) Wait a few minutes, then go ahead and restart your iPhone to help refresh things: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support

5.) After your device restarts, go ahead and go back to your iCloud settings and turn on Shared Albums again.


You might need to wait a few more moments while things properly sync from iCloud.




We hope these steps help you. Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
