In this video, I share why I use iCloud Drive over other services like Dropbox or Google Drive and how to get started.

Key takeaways:
• iCloud Drive is great if you're in the Apple ecosystem and use Apple products for your work.
• Your iCloud Drive uses your iCloud account storage which is also used for photos, video, TV
shows, movies and other services that sync with iCloud. You get some free storage but most
people need to pay for additional if using iCloud for a lot of documents and photos. I have a
family plan which means our 2TB of storage is shared with my wife.
• Sort your documents and files in the 'Documents' folder. They'll appear on all your Apple devices
in the Files app on the iPad and iPhone. Use tags to organise common types of file e.g
favourites, templates.
• Optimize Storage in your preferences. If you don't use a folder or documents for a while, they'll
be offloaded to the cloud.
