[jira] [Created] (CB-9830) iCloud backup should not be enabled by default

Chris Brody created CB-9830:
-------------------------------

             Summary: iCloud backup should not be enabled by default
                 Key: CB-9830
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9830
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: iOS
            Reporter: Chris Brody


If someone makes a new native iOS app using Xcode, iCloud backup is NOT enabled by default, as documented in the following locations:
* https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/General/Conceptual/iCloudDesignGuide/Chapters/iCloudFundametals.html
* https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/DataManagement/Conceptual/UsingCoreDataWithiCloudPG/UsingSQLiteStoragewithiCloud/UsingSQLiteStoragewithiCloud.html

According to Apple's documentation, a developer has to create an app ID on the iOS development portal and explicitly enable iCloud backup in Xcode (iCloud is NOT allowed if the app is using a wildcard identifier).

Keeping iCloud backup enabled by default configuration can trip up a new app developer very easily. Thanks for your consideration.
