Q: Photos not syncing between iPhone & iPad with IOS10

TThis only just started with the update.   Photos & videos are not syncing across both devices like they used to.  I could take a picture on my phone, go to my iPad and look at it there pretty much instantly.  Now, they aren't syncing up at all.

I've tried totally resetting both devices and still no go.  I've checked the photo settings in iCloud and they match up.

I'm totally lost on this one!

iPad (4th gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 10.0.2

    Can you share with us what those settings are?

     

    Are the photos and videos "correct" on icloud.com? Have you signed out of icloud and back in again on both the iPhone and iPad?

     

    Resetting the devices is not the same as signing out and in again to iCloud.

    Settings: iCloud Photo Library: on, Download & keep originals, upload to photo stream: on, upload burst: on, iCloud photo sharing: on.

    Icloud.com is useless on an iPad or iPhone.

     

    i Signed out then in to my iCloud on both devices With no luck On syncing the photos/videos.

    Be that as it may... you should find a way to check this as it is a key part of troubleshooting your issue.

     

    If you request the desktop site on your iPad, you will be able to view iCloud.com.
