Everything is an app and nothing is an app. I opened my bank account through an app. Is iCloud more important than my bank account?
“iCloud is not an app and does not need a delete button through the same UI” is a double-standard cop out.
Delay the deletion by 2 weeks if it’s really that dangerous, but they should still allow it.
- nindalf 5y agoIn case someone thinks this is an exaggeration, my only bank account was created through an app on an iPhone. The bank has no physical branches.

- contriban 5y agoHow about my Google account? Is Google an app or my life? Any app could follow into your description, should they have an exception? 1Password doesn't need this? Backblaze? Amazon Photos? I already gave a solution to the problem: Allow it, delay deletion. Apple does not need an exception to its own rule.
