That doesn’t mean it uses iCloud syncing. It could use its own or a third party method to sync data with a file on icloud.

If I were to implement something like that, I would read Apple’s documentation (https://developer.apple.com/icloud/cloudkit/), Google for blog posts and try to find Apple or third party sample code (e.g. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/documents_da...), and think hard about testing.

(I wouldn’t know how much of these were done for this project)
