How to Sign in to iCloud
When you sign in to iCloud with your Apple ID, you always have what’s most important to you
on all of your devices. iCloud Photo Library and iCloud Drive keep all your photos, videos, and
documents stored securely and updated. Family Sharing lets you easily share music, movies,
photos, and more with everyone in your family. Find My iPhone even helps you find your device
if you lose it.
