Now that this is on the Hacker News front page, surely Apple will be escalating this and provide a general solution, no?

It's hard to empathize with a technically-inclined person who uses cloud services for life-critical things.

Let's just hope more people read the story.

If Apple engineers read this: I can't sign in into my iCloud account from my android phone, it just doesn't work, meaning I can't manage my subscription like HBO now that I switched to an android phone.

PS: My plan is to wait for Apple to release a folding iPhone to move back!
