BREAKING: Apple iCloud Is Down For Many [UPDATED x7]

Apple is not having a good 4th of July as Apple’s system status page is noting the downtime across almost all of its iCloud services. That includes Apple Pay, Screen Time, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone among other services. And it’s trending on Twitter which is never a good thing for a company who is suffering an outage.

What’s worse is that if you want to buy something at an Apple Store, apparently you can’t:

There doesn’t seem to be any ETA for resolution. But you can be sure that Apple is trying to get things working as fast as possible as this has to be embarrassing for them.
