Q: Photos not uploading

Since October, my phone is not uploading my pictures to my Photo Stream on my computer when I am connected to wifi at home.  I have checked and everything on the phone and computer is turned on and giving permissions.  What am I missing?

    Welcome to the Apple Community macrackalackin.


        1.    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.

        2.    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.

        3.    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device


    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.


    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.
