Chapter 11 Photos 84

Turn on iCloud Photo Library beta. Go to Settings > iCloud > Photos. Or go to Settings >

Photos & Camera.

View photos and videos in iCloud Photo Library beta. In addition to viewing your photos and

videos in the Photos tab, organized by Years, Collections, and Moments, you can also view them

as a continuous stream, organized by date added, in the All Photos album.

Choose to optimize your storage or keep all your photos and videos in full-resolution on

iPhone. Optimize iPhone Storage, on by default, keeps lighter-weight versions, perfect for

viewing on iPhone. Tap Download and Keep Originals to keep your full-resolution originals on

iPhone. Full-resolution originals are always backed up and kept in your iCloud Photo Library.

Download a full-resolution photo or video. If you’re not storing original versions on iPhone,

simply pinch to zoom in to 100%, or tap Edit.

Note: To upload photos and videos to iCloud Photo Library beta, iPhone must be connected to

Wi-Fi. Using a cellular connection, you can download up to 100 MB at a time.

If your uploaded photos and videos exceed your storage plan, you can upgrade your

iCloud storage. Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage > Change Storage Plan to learn about the

available options.

iCloud Photo Sharing

With iCloud Photo Sharing, you can create albums of photos and videos to share, and subscribe

to other people’s shared albums. You can invite others using iCloud Photo Sharing (iOS 6 or later

or OS X Mountain Lion or later) to view your albums, and they can leave comments if they wish.

If they’re using iOS 7 or OS X Mavericks or later, they can add their own photos and videos. You

can also publish your album to a website for anyone to view. iCloud Photo Sharing works with or

without iCloud Photo Library beta and My Photo Stream.

Note: To use iCloud Photo Sharing, iPhone must be connected to the Internet. iCloud Photo

Sharing works over both Wi-Fi and cellular networks. Cellular data charges may apply. See Usage

information on page 177.
