Photo Stream
With Photo Stream—a feature of iCloud—photos you take on iPad are automatically uploaded to
iCloud and pushed to all your other devices that have Photo Stream enabled. Photos uploaded to
iCloud from your other devices and computers are pushed to your Photo Stream album on iPad.
See “Using iCloud” on page 19.
Turn on Photo Stream: Go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream.
New photos you’ve taken are uploaded to your Photo Stream when you leave the Camera app
and iPad is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Any other photos added to your Camera Roll—
including photos downloaded from email and text messages, and images saved from web pages,
Photo Booth, and screenshots—are also uploaded to your Photo Stream and pushed to your
other devices. Photo Stream can share up to 1000 of your most recent photos across your iOS
devices. Your computers can keep all your Photo Stream photos permanently.
