Camera Upload Settings on iPhone: Ensuring All Photos Included

Under Camera Roll Upload Settings on iPhone: If "Upload from" is set to upload "Camera Roll" will the photos in "Smart Albums" and "Your Albums" be included as well?  I want to ensure all photos, regardless of tags for favorites or if assigned to other albums, get backed up.

  • Hey BPW24, thanks for your post!

     

    If in the Camera Uploads settings, you choose to upload from your 'camera roll', all the photos in your camera roll will get uploaded.

     

    If you try to select certain albums from Smart albums, or Your albums, you'll see that the 'camera roll' option gets automatically disabled; this is to give you freedom on what to specifically upload.

     

    I hope this clarifies things, but let me know if you have any other questions.
