What Is iCloud and How Does It Work on iPhone?
Introduction to Apple’s iCloud Service
Apple’s iCloud service securely stores your photos, files, notes, passwords, and other data, ensuring it stays up to date across all your devices automatically. Moreover, it simplifies sharing photos, files, notes, and more with friends and family. Additionally, you can back up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using this service.
This service includes a free email account and 5 GB of complimentary storage for your data. For more storage and additional features, you can subscribe to the premium tier, iCloud+.
Seamlessly Integrated
Each Apple device integrates seamlessly with Apple’s cloud service. To set it up, sign in to your device with your Apple ID, then select which apps you want to use with the cloud and which features you want to enable or disable. Customize these settings for each device. Moreover, access information stored in the cloud on a Windows computer using the dedicated application for Windows and in a web browser.

All Your Information, Always Up to Date
When you use Apple’s cloud service, you can access your photos, files, passwords, and other data on any device you choose. Since the cloud stores your data and not a single device, it stays up to date everywhere.
For example, if you enable cloud Photos on your iPhone and Mac, you will see the same photos on both devices. Any new photo you take or delete from the Photos app on your iPhone will reflect on your Mac.
