Users of apps with iCloud issues were seeing 503 error messages such as “Request failed with http status code 503,” but multiple developers have confirmed that the error messages appear to have gone away over the course of the last couple of days.
Tweetbot developer Paul Haddad said that he has received “basically 0” iCloud Sync reports over the past couple days, and Craig Grannell, who wrote about the iCloud problems, said that he is no longer seeing issues with the Cloud Battery or Transloader apps he uses.
