Irritating iCloud pop up messages on iPhone

    I've got my first smart phone and it isn't going too well. It's a hand me down. I missed work the other day. It turns out the alarm only goes off if the phone is turned on.

    But more importantly. I've noticed that I get heaps of "sign into iCloud" pop up messages every time I'm trying to do something. I keep having to hit cancel. I remember once, I struggled to actually answer a phone call because one of these messages kept popping up as I was trying to answer the phone.

    Can anyone help with this.It's just iCloud, it's facebook ones too. Thanks

    iPhones use iCloud accounts. Create one and sign in.

    Do I have to keep signing in from there on?

    No. It remembers it.


    As for the facebook stuff. I don't use it so I don't know what it's about.

    Do you get the annoying facebook sign in option?

    Does that mean that the Illuminati and Putin wil be able to see anything on my phone, or only things I upload to iCloud?

    They won't be able to see anything on iCloud once you set up 2 factor authentication.

    I figured it out in the end (no thanks to ye) WITHOUT being bribed into taking hours to create an iCloud account that would go on to create endless hours of frustration.

    I can see why your other account has been banned.
