My Photo Stream was introduced alongside iCloud in 2011, a free Wi-Fi based option for users to temporarily store images in one digital location and then save or upload them across the rest of their Apple devices on-the-go. The service is available on:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later and the Photos app
Apple TV HD, or Apple TV (2nd generation or 3rd generation) with tvOS 5.0 or later
PC with Windows 7 and iCloud for Windows
My Photo Stream only works for JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and RAW image formats, and saves them at a lower resolution to reduce storage on iPhone, iPad, and iPod. My Photo Stream isn't available for Apple Watches, doesn't apply to Live photos, and won't save edits made to photos across devices. My Photo Stream can be accessed in a user's device settings, but isn't available for users who have recently created their Apple ID.
