iCloud Photo Library beta

iCloud Photo Library beta gives you access to your photos and videos on any supported iOS 8.1
device and on

iCloud.com

with the same Apple ID. You can make changes to photos and videos

in the Photos app, preserve both the original and edited versions, and see the changes updated
across your devices (see

Edit photos and trim videos

on page 81). Store as many photos and

videos as your iCloud storage plan allows. If you turn on iCloud Photo Library beta, you can’t use
iTunes to sync photos and videos to iPad.
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 iPad.
Optimize iPad Storage, on by default, keeps lighter-weight versions, perfect for viewing on iPad.
Tap Download and Keep Originals to keep your full-resolution originals on iPad. 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 iPad, simply
pinch to zoom in to 100%, or tap Edit.

Note: To upload photos and videos to iCloud Photo Library beta, iPad must be connected to Wi-Fi.
Using a cellular connection on iPad cellular models, 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, iPad must be connected to Wi-Fi. iCloud Photo Sharing works
over both Wi-Fi and cellular networks. Cellular data charges may apply. See
