iCloud is a cloud-based storage service offered by Apple company, which is just like other cloud-based storage services such as Google Drive and OneDrive. But the difference is iCloud is only for Apple devices users and it comes with your apple devices by default, but Google Drive and OneDrive can be used by everyone.
iCloud Photos choice is not turning on by default. Whether to turn it on or off is decided by the users. To turn on it, you can sync your data(photos included) from one Apple device to another. But if you turn off it, the sync will stop, so it will cause iPhone and iPad not syncing Photos.
Different Apple IDs can cause iPhone and iPad photos not syncing. This reason is easy to understand. All your data is synced to your Apple ID, so it is just like the hub to connect your different Apple devices. If you signed in with 2 different Apple IDs, the data synced in the 2 Apple IDs is not the same of course. It’s better to use one Apple ID among your different Apple devices, which is easier to manage your data.
Sync data needs a strong and stable internet connection, without which iPad and iPhone photos not syncing may occur. Actually many users don’t know how to set internet connections. Solution 2 in part 1 is detailed instructions for internet settings. We recommend you to connect a WIFI than using cellular data, for photos take up a lot of memory and require a relatively fast internet speed.
If you are a photography enthusiast, then you may be familiar with this reason. iCloud offers 5GB free storage for every Apple ID and if it will send you a notification when it is full. Insufficient iCloud storage will directly cause photos not syncing between iPhone and iPad. We recommend you clear your iCloud storage regularly.
