Due to an increase of requests for iCloud Storage on company mobiles - the Expenses team will no longer process these requests. 


Whilst photos are an important use of our mobile devices, we want to encourage our users to download photos to their Vistry OneDrive for longer term storage (instructions below on how to enable sync or just sharing individual photos).

 

Please note: it is the user’s responsibility to ensure that photos are regularly reviewed for data minimisation and non-work related photos should not be on Vistry devices.


Option 1: Sending Specific Photos to OneDrive

  • Go to Photos app on your iPhone
  • Tap Select in the top right of the app
  • Then tick the photos you want to share
  • Tap the share icon in the bottom left
  • Tap OneDrive
  • Tap Files and Pick the folder you want to put the photos in
  • Then tap Upload Here

 

Option 2: Enabling Photo Syncing to OneDrive

 

A. Set Camera Format

  • Go to Settings
  • Scroll down to Camera and Tap
  • Tap Formats (at the top)
  • Tap Most Compatible 


B. Set One Drive to Upload Camera Photos

  • Download the OneDrive App from the App Store.
  • Launch the OneDrive app and sign in (with your Vistry login).
  • In the top left of the app tap on your initials or photo
  • Tap Settings (near the bottom)
  • Tap Camera Upload
  • Turn on for your Vistry account
  • Tap Confirm
  • Tap Allow Access to All Photos
