For a few months now, CloudKit sync has been acting up.
The problem hasgotten so badthat developers have had to inform their users or switch off sync altogether.
So, is your data safe?

Should you stop using iCloud completely?
What if you rely on sync for your work?
“For other apps, it’s going to have much more of an impact, for sure.
Different people are running into different problems with it.
For me, I’m just seeing very long sync times.”
To confuse matters slightly, some apps maintain a folder in iCloud Drive for your app data.
And iCloud Drive is not experiencing any of these ongoing glitches.
Your data is as safe as it has ever been.
And its getting worse.
Should you be worried?
The best way to protect yourself is to make backups.
For many iOS users, a backup means an iCloud backup.
For Mac users, its a lot easier.
