iCloud photo sharing
 

Hi I have been running an eBay account for 2+ years and really like the ease of using my iPhone to take photos as it uploads to iCloud and I can grab them from there. Do you think this will work with multiple stealth accounts?

I understand I'll most likely have to strip the meta data from the photos and I'll have to change the presentation of items I take photos of so they don't look like others. Is this safe? Anyone else doing this? Using iCloud and one phone for all accounts to take photos?

I don't want to be wasting my time

I think I've actually solved this now. The iPhone uploads to my iCloud automatically. Chrome downloads the photos from iCloud very quickly. I can then strip the EXIF data easily with ExifPurge then I can share on a USB stick with each user account. Bit of a ballache but does the job.

Your on track.

To refine it a little, put a shortcut to your iCloud folder onto each user accounts desktop. That way you can access the pictures, remove EXIF data without faffing around with a USB stick.

Note - you'll need to login to the account with the icloud folder to allow it to sync images first though... I myself do this but with Dropbox, so similar approach.
