>Not sure why you got downvoted

Fanboys don't like you pointing out the hard to swallow truth pills. They expect comments to validate their lifestyle choice, not contradict them. Any contraction is a direct offense to them.

> I’m in the middle of switching from android to IOS

At least for you it's easy, because all google apps exist for iOS, but switching away from iOS is absolutely impossible as there is no iCloud or iMessage for Android, so all your data remains hostage with Apple if you try to move.

1. Download Google Drive for iOS

2. Go to the Files App

3. Select all in your iCloud Drive

4. Copy

5. Go to your Google Drive in the Files app

6. Paste

Just like you would copy files from one drive to another.

There is a web version of iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos.

They are not "great" but they are more than enough to download a zip with all your files and all your photos. From there you go where you want.
