Q: Cannot sync photos between two iPads
Hello, members of Apple Community
I have a little hiccup and would like to have some great advice
My iPad Mini 4 (iOS 9.3.2) and my grandma's iPad 2 (iOS 9.2.1) share the same Apple ID. I used to own an iPad Air, the Air and the iPad 2 sync photos flawlessly. But when I switch to the new iPad Mini 4, it doesn't update my photo library from the Air. When I take a photo, it still appears on the iPad 2, but the Mini 4 doesn't sync all the old photos on the iPad 2.
What happened? Is it because of different iOS versions?
Thanks.
iPad Mini, iOS 9.3.2

No, the iOS versions are not the problem (although of course your grandma's iPad should be updated).
The issue is likely either a Wi-Fi connection, or not having a well charged battery.
See "When do photos and videos upload to iCloud Photo Library" here:
