Experimental Built, but needs more testing against a real account of this kind. Keep your old account and check what arrives.
Limits you should know
Reminders arrive as tasks, so your new home must keep task lists, as Soverin and Nextcloud do. A CalDAV server that keeps only calendars refuses them, task by task.
Apple offers no way into iCloud Drive for anyone outside Apple, so its files cannot be read from the account. Apple’s own data export holds them, and Ownpace cannot read that export yet.
Ownpace cannot reach iCloud Photos from the account either. Apple’s data export holds them, and Ownpace cannot read that export yet: request one only for your own records for now.
What you will do
- A passwordCreate an app-specific password in your Apple Account, and enter it with your Apple Account’s address. Apple offers no sign-in button for this.
A typical cost
