What to do when iCloud is down
- Files stored locally on your Apple devices are still accessible — only cloud sync and iCloud Drive access are affected during an outage.
- Avoid starting a new device backup or restore during an iCloud outage as it may fail or corrupt the backup.
- Check Apple's system status page at apple.com/support/systemstatus for per-service iCloud status.
- Report the outage on this page to help other users confirm the problem.
Common iCloud outage causes
iCloud outages often affect specific services independently — Photos, Drive, Mail, and Backup run on separate infrastructure. Major iOS release days cause massive backup and activation traffic that can degrade iCloud performance.

FAQ
What is iCloud?
iCloud is Apple's cloud storage and syncing service for photos, documents, device backups, email, and cross-device continuity across iPhone, Mac, and iPad.
Why is iCloud not working?
iCloud outages often affect specific services independently — Photos, Drive, Mail, and Backup run on separate infrastructure. Major iOS release days cause massive backup and activation traffic that can degrade iCloud performance. Compare the current OutageHQ status, recent checks, user reports, and official sources before assuming the issue affects everyone.
What should I do if iCloud is down?
Files stored locally on your Apple devices are still accessible — only cloud sync and iCloud Drive access are affected during an outage. Avoid starting a new device backup or restore during an iCloud outage as it may fail or corrupt the backup. Check Apple's system status page at apple.com/support/systemstatus for per-service iCloud status.
