- invitations always lost in the ether. Like always.
- no way to prevent adding duplicate photos into an album
- no like/comment notifications (I checked, the setting is on
- no way to let others invite more people to the album
- default sort is by added date… I can kinda see this but really any time after first viewing the pics you want them chronologically
- no iCloud.com support. I guess I should expect this, I’m not sure what iCloud.com is even for lol
One day I randomly found all my lost Shared Photo invitations on my work iPad. I never really use the camera or photos on that, but that’s the only place they went- it is signed into iCloud with the exact settings as my iPhone and Mac. No matter what I do I only get Photo invitations on the iPad.
Had a similar thing with my partner’s HomeKit invitation- it would ONLY go to her iPad, no matter what.
Oh and just remembered the same issue happened when Find My iPhone wouldn’t work on my dads phone. 8 months later I did a point OS update on his iPad, which then prompted a new Agreements Confirmation, and received received 16 “found iPhone” alerts all at once… either months later lol.
The software agreement thing has been a major issue for a LONG time. Gotta be a better way to catch that and force the popup everywhere.
Not sure if that’s helpful, but check all your signed in iCloud devices and make sure they’re all on the latest OS.
Stupid tip, but if you have older devices you lightly use, which can’t run the latest/current OS, create a unique isolated iCloud account for those devices.
Yes, it can involve extra steps, but it will mitigate all the issues mentioned above.
