Apple’s iCloud Website Updated With iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma Features
Alongside the launch of iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma, Apple has updated its iCloud website with design changes and some of the new features that came in the software updates.
Apple says that the iCloud homepage is now customizable, with options to select specific folders for Notes, a specific mailbox in the Mail app, favorite Photos, and more.
