What’s wrong with their built in support?

It doesn’t work like iCloud where everything is backed up - even private app data?

I am an Android guy but this is one of the things that iPhone does much much better.
What does Android do better?
It doesn't work for every app. Not sure if it's opt-in or opt-out.
Which apps doesn’t it work with that you think it should?

I am looking through my apps and most of them are clients for server side functionality or productivity apps that use iCloud Drive, OneDrive or Google Drive.

Google Photos would take care of videos and photos and Contacts and calendars use standard syncing protocols.
