iCloud is Apple's cloud platform that serves and secures all Apple devices. It can save and synchronize all your photos, contacts, files, reminders, and notes, and you can also use it to store device backups. You can access and manage your ‌iCloud‌ data on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, and the web. Keep reading to learn how.
