Okay, phew! That’s great to hear. You’re pictures are safe, we just need them to sync to your iPhone :)

On your phone, open your Settings app. Click your iCloud profile at the very top, then click iCloud > Photos. Is “Sync this iPhone” enabled? If not, enable it. And if it IS already enabled, just for good measure go ahead and toggle it off and back on again. Just to be safe.

After checking all that, all you can really do is wait. Especially if you had a lot of photos, this could take awhile. Put your phone on its charger and make sure you’ve got a good connection to your Wi-Fi. It can take hours for the photos to finally finish restoring, but so long as they are definitely there on iCloud, you’re good. You didn’t lose them :)

Most will yellow over time, it’s more a question of how much time. If you want one that also protects the phone I’d go for a casemate. Had very minimal discolouring after a year and many tumbles on concrete.
