The Underrated Photo-Sharing Feature You Already Own

Using iOS 9, go to Settings, tap on iCloud, hit Photos, and turn on Photo Sharing.

Then launch the Photo app, tap the cloud icon on the bottom that says "Shared," and hit the plus sign at the top left. There! You've just created a new stream to name whatever you like.

Anyone you choose to share with must have iCloud photo sharing set up either using an iOS device, Mac, or Windows computer. You can invite up to 100 people.

You can also turn on the public option in your shared stream settings if you want anyone to view your stream with a link. The people you invite will get a notification or email asking them to join or subscribe to your stream.

Do this by going to either the Photos or the Camera app, selecting the photos or videos, hitting on the share icon at the bottom left, and selecting "Cloud."

After you select "Cloud," you'll see your stream name. From there, simply hit "Post," and your photos and videos will share with anyone added to the stream. On the activity page, you can see when other people upload to the stream. One stream can hold up to 5,000 images.

You can download, comment, and like each other's photos and videos, just like on Instagram and Facebook — except this'll be between the people who really care.

So easy, right?
