Hi all,
I thought the purpose of the iCloud Photo Library was to preserve our precious local storage? I upgraded my iCloud storage to the 25gb option, since I'll only be syncing pictures and a very limited number of documents to it. I turned it on last night and let it download all of my (6.5 GB worth of) pictures to the Drive. I look at my storage today and that space is still being used locally on my phone.
Any way I can free that space up? And yes, I have "Optimize Phone Storage" checked in the iCloud settings.
It's weird because I have 5.9GB in my iCloud Photo Library and 6.5GB of my local storage being used by photos (I took a few pictures and screenshots between turning the iCPL on and now). Help?
