Apple brings iCloud to the Microsoft Store

Apple has released another app for the Windows Store after its now defunct iTunes app – its rumoured Store version of iCloud for Windows. iCloud works just as well as Microsoft’s own OneDrive. You’ll be able to see your files stored on iCloud direct from File Explorer and access them on demand without needing to download them, and all changes are synced across all your iCloud enabled devices. Now I know what you’re wondering. Since it’s in the Microsoft Store, is it a UWP? Come on, it’s 2019. All the cool apps come in Win32 nowadays.

Here’s what the app offers:

• Access your iCloud Drive files right from File Explorer, without using up space on your PC
• Choose the files and folders you want to keep on your PC
• Safely store all your files in iCloud Drive and access them from your iOS device, Mac and on iCloud.com
• Share any file right from File Explorer and easily collaborate with others – edits will be synced across your devices

iCloud for Windows is available right now from the Microsoft Store.  Now, if only Apple would build their Music, TV and Podcasts apps for Windows to go with this.
