In this episode, I discuss a recent exploration and problem-solving situation with one of my apps that uses CloudKit to sync data across devices.

CloudKit and iCloud are excellent ways to store a user's data and make it accessible across multiple devices. However, they come with some scenarios you need to account for.

For example, have you coded to protect against a bad experience if the user is not logged into their account?

Here are some tips in this episode with my real-world examples.

Thanks for the suggestion on this topic. We often see folks asking why cross-platform is such a great idea, but we don't usually discuss why it can also be a bad idea and how we can promote native platform development.

This can be incredibly challenging for companies that see the one code base for cross-platform development as reduced development time and cost without considering the long-term consequences.
