There are two things that have stopped me from using CloudKit in my apps in the past: 1- Despite Apple's generous free tiers, the cost of data transfer is on the app developer, and not on the user. As a developer, I see this as a liability risk. 2- Data is either completely private or completely public, there is no intermediate "team" or group that can be easily set up to share data among users.

Regarding your second point, there is a database for sharing data between users. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/cloudkit/ckcontain...
