Because of this, it is fairly likely you will see apps and documents that are not specifically for the device you’re using at the moment, and if you have ever used iCloud to sync documents between Macs, there will much more visible here than what is accessible through any iOS app. TextEdit is a good demonstration that apps and documents from the Mac are visible in addition to apps and documents on any iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, so long as they are using the same iCloud account configured on each device. The example is again showing TextEdit documents being modified through iOS: Alternatively, delete all documents pertaining to that specific app by tapping the big red “Delete All” button.Delete a document by tapping “Edit” and then tapping the red button alongside the document name.Removing documents or app data from iCloud is very simple: If you were to remove app data for Civilization for example, you would lose all of your saved games as well as the recall ability that keeps the game consistently where you left off, even after closing the app. Note that Documents and “App Data” are different, with the former being the files you’re used to creating and using, and the latter being preferences, settings, and save-states for things like games.

We’ll get to more on the intricacies of that in a moment.

TextEdit is actually a Mac app, but it’s still visible in the iCloud document manager of iOS. Here is what tapping on “TextEdit” would look like:

Tap any app to see specific documents stored in iCloud.

Look under “Documents & Data” to see which apps have iCloud documents available – note that both iOS and OS X apps storing documents in iCloud will be seen here.

Tap on “Storage & Backup” then tap “Manage Storage”.
