Hello
Please can someone help me understand iMessages in iCloud? It's driving me nuts - especailly photos and attachments.
My understanding of it...
1. Once it's enabled it syncs all chats and media to any Apple device logged into the same icloud account
2. This includes media / attachments / links.
3. If I delete a photo from my iPhone it SHOULD be deleted from my iPad / Mac AND the iCloud
BUT for some reason not all the media within an inline chat appears on my device under the info panel for the contact and at the bottom of that panel it may say '500 images in iCloud' (there is an option to download these).
So the question I have is how do I view / keep the images in iCloud and delete the junk taking up sapce in my iCloud storage.
Follow up question. If I delete it from a chat will it also delete it from my photo library?
