), a little surfing, checking emails, occasional use of Reminders locator function.Yeah probably... I game, text a bunch, and have a few social networking apps with push notifications. I also have two push GMail accounts. Gonna try a reset and set up as new phone and restore with iCloud and see if I see a difference.It's probably important to add that I am a very light user. No games, no music, no videos - just a few calls (yes, I actually use it as a phone!
My guess is your experience is probably more common than mine.

.....it's a phone?
Now if they can manage to get 4S battery life to be similar to the 4's battery we'll be in business haha!It's something that I discovered. Amazing - it can do all that other stuff, AND you can make phone calls!!
I will reveal the secret of this heretofore unknown capacity for a small fee.

Yeah it doesn't upload your entire camera roll... just pictures taken after you turn it on. Figured that out the same way you did haha
Two tin cans and a string works reasonably well. Somewhat limited range - but no battery problems.
The only thing that's really keeping me with iCloud is Find My iPhone, cause god forbid I lose my phone or it gets stolen I'd like to know at least an approximate location of where it is to try and retrieve it. I think that's an incredible feature... other than that I already have everything else switched off other than Backup, but starting to think whether that's even worth it.I really wanted to like iCloud.
I gave it a good try, yet between Apple's lack of good documentation explaining what tech support cannot, and the frustration of so much wasted time via trial and error, I've suspended using it for the present time.
I got "most" of it to work, but it was far from intuitive, lacked Apple's famous "it just works" experience, and that was enough frustration and wasted time for me.
Fortunately I did not "switch" from my proven and very effective cloud strategy that was already in place before iCloud became something more than vaporware.
Thus I continue to use my ever so effective third party solutions, while Apple works to get their ducks in a row.
Hopefully soon, Apple will get back to what they (used) do best. Releasing hardware and software that "just work". That would make me one very satisfied Apple user.
