Is it safe to activate iCloud Drive now?
I am running iPhone 6 w/ iOS 8.0.2, Ipad 3 Retina also on 8.0.2 and late 2011 Macbook Air w/ Yosemite Beta 4.

Thanks. Glad I asked.

I've been using it for several weeks and it's not bad. I'm just having some issues with video files synchronizing to the iPad.
The issue regarding deletion of files when doing a Reset is no big deal now that you know what happens.
Keep in mind your iCloud Drive Data is being backed up by Time Machine on your Mac.

I haven't had much problems in the couple weeks I have been using it either. Mainly using Numbers. I don't plan on using the reset all settings soon. However, I think that will be fixed with 8.1 later this month.

Once I updated my iOS devices to iOS 8, I upgraded Yosemite to iCloud Drive. There are a couple or apps that aren't syncing successfully, but everything else seems to be running just fine.
