Unfortunately, after several attempts, I failed to access iCloud from Android. Refund requested.

Did work originally a few years ago and did the job it was supposed to. However doesn't work anymore. I purchased this app and the calendar one but there has been no support provided by publisher after several emails. No reply, no support and doesn't work. Don't bother wasting your time.

It used to be OK, alas not any more. There have been minor problems in the past, but they were promptly resolved and messages were replied to. Not any more. Errors all the time, no replies to messages and no updates. Sorry to say but this app should be avoided.

It's a great app, I've been using for several years but since few months I can't sync my contacts, it only give an error occurred while trying to sync the app. Can I get help on it please? 3 stars due too this error as I mailed the developer a few times but haven't got any answer from him.

Have used this app with others from the same developer for years. Been getting an error like other users for several weeks. The developer acknowledged the issue but wasn't sure when a fix would be issued. A shame as I'm now having to look elsewhere for alternative solutions. Update:27th Mar. Followed the advice of others & switched to Smoothsync for icloud which seems to work. Would of been nice for the developer to have suggested this the first time I contacted them. If this app is no longer supported or functions it should be removed from the store.

I have used this app for a few years and it has been very useful in syncing my icloud contacts to my android phone. Several days ago it stopped working! I now get an error message "An error occurred" every-time the phone attempts to sync. The result being my contacts have been removed from my android phone. . I logged a support docket with the developer but have not received a reply. In the absence of a reply/fix I can not recommend smoothsync for cloud contacts Update: The Developer of this software offered me access to development version of Smoothsync for icloud. Whilst the software is still "Work In Progress" it is effectively syncing my schedule, contacts, and tasks.Well done!
