Sharing lots of iPhone photos? Use iCloud link! (It's right there...)


🌟 Have you ever experienced the frustration of trying to share a bunch of photos via text message, only to be left staring at a spinning circle while your family and friends eagerly await the visual delights? The good news is there's a simple solution already available on your iPhone – the iCloud Link!


Here's how:

  1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone.

  2. Select the photos or album you want to share.

  3. Tap the Share button.

  4. Scroll down and tap 'Copy iCloud Link.'

Quirk alert! After tapping 'Copy iCloud Link,' it might seem like nothing is happening, but don't worry! Your link has already been prepared and copied to your clipboard. All you need to do is open your text or email app and paste the link in there.


Not sure how to paste?: To paste the copied content:

  1. Open the app or location where you want to paste the text or image.

  2. Tap and hold on the screen until the contextual menu appears.

  3. Select "Paste" from the menu.

Voilà! The copied content will be inserted at the cursor or designated location.


With this simple and efficient method, you can bid farewell to spinning circles and effortlessly share your precious moments with family and friends.


Happy sharing!
