There was an error connecting to iCloud

When I go to the iCloud screen on my iPhone I get a "Verification Failed. There was an error connecting to iCloud."

enter image description here

What can I do to resolve this?


Solution 1:

This means you don't have an active internet connection to access iCloud. From the picture, I can see you're not connected to WiFi but using a cellular network. To access iCloud and it's relative Settings you need to make sure:

  • Mobile Data is on

  • You have enabled Mobile Data for Settings

To enable Mobile Data:

  1. Go to Settings

  2. Mobile Data

  3. Toggle the switch at the top

To turn on Mobile Data for Settings:

  1. Go to Settings

  2. Mobile Data

  3. Go to Settings and toggle the switch so it is green
