iCloud Integration Is not Functional

Feedback

It might be worth noting somewhere near the top of the page that this integration is not functional either partially, or completely. There are some proposed work arounds in the comments of one of the open icloud issues. If those work, consistently then maybe those should be added to the instructions as well. I would suspect a lot of people want to use this integration, and it would be friendly to set expectations, so people aren't troubleshooting that isn't going to work in it's current state.

Hey there @Quentame, @nzapponi, mind taking a look at this feedback as it has been labeled with an integration (icloud) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

Just some additional information.

I haven't explored this thoroughly, but I was able to add it, but only with my account password not an app specific password, and only using the request sent to my phone for some reason. I was sent a text, and had on device notifications popup on various apple products i was signed into. I tried several times using the one on my macbook to no avail, but using the one on my phone was the only one that would actually allow me to continue. The one on my phone seemed a bit different than normal as there was a pretext confirmation that i was signing in from the web, maybe something to do with me being on the new ios beta.
