When does an IOS device upload photos to icloud photo library
Does someone know the rules when an IOS device uploads photos to the icloud photo library? Is there an official definition somewhere published?
With the old photo stream it was clearly defined when photos got uploaded:
- more than 20% battery
- WIFI connected
- camera app closed
.....then automatically all new photos got uploaded. One did not have to do anything.
However with the icloud photo library this is different and absolutely not clear for me how it works. To get new pictures uploaded i mostly have to open the fotos app.
And if i have several new photos the most time it does only upload them as long as the fotos app is running and my iphone is not in standby.
However sometimes it is uploading new photos without having the fotos app open.
But the most time it only uploads them as long as the fotos app is running and my iphone is NOT in standby. Of course this is not a very comfortable solution...i mean if i have 50 new photos this can take long to upload them....and i cannot always stay with my iphone just to make sure that it does not go into standby mode......
But then....charging it it uploaded over night 150 photos without having fotos app open...the next day it did not upload another 70 photos while charging my iphone....
So my question ist -> when does an IOS device upload new photos to the icloud photo library? Are there official "rules" from Apple when photos should get uploaded?
