without having to sync. See

My Photo Stream overview

My Photo Stream is the iCloud feature that uploads and stores the last 30 days of your photos
and automatically pushes them to all your iOS devices and computers. With My Photo Stream,
you can view all your recent photos on all your devices without having to sync—all you have to
do is turn it on.

Note: You must have an iCloud account to use My Photo Stream. iCloud requires OS X v10.7.2 or
later. For more information, see

Set up your iCloud account

on page 436.

Here’s how My Photo Stream works:

First, turn on My Photo Stream on any device that you want to be part of your photo stream.

Next, take a photo with your iOS device, or import some photos from your digital camera to
your Mac, iPad, or Windows computer.

The photos are automatically uploaded to iCloud and then pushed to your other devices (via
a Wi-Fi network or Ethernet).
