View a shared stream on the web

As the owner of a shared photo stream, you can make it available at a public web address. This allows people who aren’t iCloud users to view your stream. For instructions, see Create a shared stream.

When people access your stream online, they don’t have to log in to see the photos and videos and download the photos. However, they can’t add comments to or “like” specific images.
