Apple’s iCloud.com now fully launched into the world

Apple’s iCloud.com now fully launched into the world The web portal of iCloud "digital hub" which Apple rolled out this summer was fully launched into the world on Thursday; with iCloud. com now available for access and use by anybody and everybody.

Till now, the web portal of the iCloud - which enables uses to access their contacts, mail notes, and calendars, in sync across all Apple devices via the web - remained in the beta, even though it was freely available to anybody who had an Apple ID.

With iCloud. com now being up and ready for perusal, users can now access their information from any browser merely by entering their Apple ID credentials. The `log in' into iCloud. com unfolds for the users 7 icons - Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Reminders, iWork, and Find My iPhone - which are positioned above the fairly-familiar linen background.

While a click on the Mail icon takes the users to an interface that is quite similar to the OS X mail app; Contacts on iCloud. com open up all contacts which have been stored within iCloud, giving the users the ability - like on other devices - to add, edit or delete contacts from any web browser.

So far as Calendar, Notes, Reminders on iCloud. com are concerned, they are mirror images of the same functionalities on iOS; while iWork gives the users of Keynote, Numbers and Pages a place to instantly locate these files on any system; and Find My iPhone allows users locate their devices - with same Apple ID registration - directly from the web.
