Q: Photo Won't Attach to Text or iMessage
I've noticed in the last week or so that all of my photos that I take with my iPhone camera are no longer staying on my phone and being uploaded to my iCloud however my phone is not keeping the original - when I go to look at a photo it will not load unless I have data turned on or there is a tiny exclamation point on the right hand side of the image. This has only started happening recently, however I have not changed any settings on my iPhone, Macbook, or iPad recently.
Also I can receive MMS messages, but when I go to attach the photo to a message (normal text or iMessage) it allows me to select the photo but does not attach. I have tried both ways of attaching from the message, or going to the photo and selecting share > message without success.
Details:
iOS: 9.3.2
Settings > Photos & Camera
iCloud photo library ON
Optimize iPhone storage ON
Upload to my Photo Stream ON
iCloud Photo Sharing ON
Settings > Messages
MMS Messaging ON
Any information or ideas would greatly be appreciated!!
iOS 9.3.2

If you have photos optimised they need to download before you can use them, to do this you need to have mobile data turned on For photos if you aren't connected to wifi.
