If I delete my photos to clean up my phone will they still be in the iCloud to access from a different device that has my iCloud account?
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 13
If you are using iCloud Photos and you delete a photo, it is deleted everywhere. It will remain in the recently deleted album for 30 days and then it will be gone for good. iCloud is merely a syncing service, not off device storage.
If you backup photos with iCloud and you delete a photo from your phone, when the phone backs up again, that photo will also be deleted because it is no longer on the phone to be included in the backup.
