iCloud & CloudKit

Hello Everybody, As per my understanding we can do icloud syncing from my apps. By default Apple provide us 5 GB storage space for icloud as free. Also found that Cloudkit is the media that transfers data from/to apps and icloud. I have found that CloudKit works from iOS 8 onwards. And apple claims that in CloudKit they provide 5 GB storage free and that will grow with every user and storage will be free upto 1PB. Please find the link from where I get this information. https://developer.apple.com/icloud/documentation/cloudkit-storage/ So my question is will we really get free upto 1PB for every icloud user account? Also will this facility also applies if I am using iOS 7? Thanks, Sritoma

1 PB for your app, with all the users combined. Not 1 PB per user of the app.

But I think iCloud account is per user basis. So as per the documentation what is the meaning that the storage size will grow with every user? https://developer.apple.com/icloud/documentation/cloudkit-storage/
