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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9830?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15168290#comment-15168290 ]

Ah yes, that was my comment. This is true - BackupWebStorage is another beast. 

Reading your links (and from your comments) it appears enabling iCloud is two-pronged -- enable in the cloud and enable in your app.
We can't control the cloud setting of course but we can enable/disable it in the app if this is a needed feature.

>From the section "Enabling iCloud Support"[1], I created a Cordova iOS app using the default template, and the iCloud section is off. Therefore I believe we don't  enable iCloud backup by default (per the subject).

I will resolve this as "Not A Problem" unless you have more comments.

> 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.
