iOS 26.4 adds a convenient new iCloud feature, here’s how to enable it

iOS 26.4 adds an opt-in Allow Search toggle for iCloud.com.

When enabled, users can search iCloud Drive files and iCloud Photos on the web.

Apple says the feature uses encrypted search and on-device processing for privacy.

The update makes iCloud.com more useful from non-Apple devices and closer to web-first cloud rivals.
