Other The nonsense of local storage

[Astrohunter]

We now have 1 TB iPhones but we still don’t have the option to store all iCloud files locally, you have to literally click on each file to download it.

Am I the only one to find it ridiculous?

 

[now i see it]

iCloud is intentionally designed that way to make leaving it as difficult as possible.

iCloud is intentionally designed that way to make leaving it as difficult as possible.

Things were a lot easier when I had my iPhone jailbroken and could mount the user partition as a network drive. Sadly, with iOS 8 that specific JB tweak was never updated.

Now we have to deal with what Apple give use for a file system.

Thankfully I never had to 'leave' as Apple didn't allow my Mac hardware in to begin with. So I have other services.

Yeah…about that. My work Mac is a 2015 MBP with a 256GB SSD. My personal 2009 MacPro has a 1TB SSD. Always have to balance space on the MBP.

Sigh.
