Elkjøp Cloud on iOS works with iCloud Photo Library. This means that we will back up ALL your photos if you have enabled iCloud Photo Library on your iOS device. Even the ones you store on iCloud.
You can verify that iCloud is enabled under "Settings" --> "Photos" on your iOS device
About "Optimize iPhone Storage" in iCloud:
If you're using "Optimize iPhone Storage" in iCloud, here's what you need to know:
Elkjøp Cloud may need to download originals, which can slow down the backup and use more data.
We recommend uploading only on Wi-Fi.
Even if you've uploaded a photo before, we check it again for duplicates.
If the iCloud storage is bigger than the device storage, the device will run out of space. Please read more below.
Faster Backup:
To speed up Elkjøp Cloud backups while using iCloud, select "Download and Keep Originals" in your iCloud settings. This means your iOS device already has the original files.
Dealing with Limited iCloud Storage:
If your iCloud Library is bigger than your device's storage:
You can turn off iCloud on your device.
Or, you can move from iCloud to Elkjøp Cloud:
Start the Elkjøp Cloud backup for photos.
Pause if your phone's storage is low, free up space, and repeat until all photos are backed up.
Alternatively, on your Mac:
Open the Photos app.
Enable "iCloud Photo Library" and "Download Originals to this Mac" in iCloud settings.
Add your Photos library to your Elkjøp Cloud backup.
If you're all set with Elkjøp Cloud, you can turn off iCloud on your iOS device.
