Many teams at Apple are pure junk. When Steve Jobs basically fired iCloud folks in public, lot of people thought he went too far but little they knew how bad that team really was and still is. These folks are now center of the Apple universe but can't build a simple app that can efficiently sync the photos on Windows. Other teams are iTunes (one of the worst widely deployed Windows app ever), Apple Music (just look at the obscene UX - in 2020), App Store (good luck deleting installed app if you have too many of them - in 2020) and of course auto-correct (fails to fix spellings in 2020 that MS Word 2000 used to fix!). Surprisingly these folks have kept up with mediocracy regardless of otherwise stringent culture at Apple.
