Apple's iCloud+ is best known for its storage, but the company keeps expanding the suite of benefits included with the subscription. Beyond extra storage, iCloud+ already includes features such as Hide My Email, iCloud Private Relay, and full Apple Invites access. Subscribers who pay for iCloud+ or Apple One may be getting more than they realize.
Among the latest additions are upgrades to HomeKit Secure Video. Ahead of new Home products launching this week, Apple has added 4K support, generated video descriptions, clip searching, and noteworthy clips to the service with iOS 27. Custom email domains have also been expanded. Subscribers who own a domain can now create up to 10 personalized email addresses per domain, up from the previous limit of three, which is useful for small businesses and families alike.
In more than 100 countries, iCloud+ subscribers now receive Apple TV and Apple Arcade at no additional cost. The United States is not included in this change, but for many users it makes the service a far easier decision in supported territories.
Apple also said that select iCloud+ plans will include higher usage limits for AI features when iOS 27 arrives. Details remain unclear, and affected features include Siri AI, new Photos editing tools, and Image Playground. All of these improvements have been added with no price change for subscribers.
