Optimise section is what you want.
How do I delete photos from my phone and retain them on the cloud, also how do I retrieve them when needed?
If i selected a photo on my phone and choose delete it says photo will also be deleted from the cloud, I thought the purpose of the cloud was to be able to free up your devices storage whilst retain the original.
TIA from a iphone newbee.
Cheers,

Check your device storage to see if it tallies up. A few times I've seen it turned on but it wasn't on. Had to sign it off iCloud turn off the phone and sign back in I think. Bit fiddly.
