I'm saving data to iCloud in my app using iCloud Documents capability, however I'm not using the Documents folder, instead I'm hiding my files in another folder i.e. User'siCloudContainer/MyFolder.
I've uploaded some .plist files to this folder but when I receive them using another device they've been given a .icloud extension. What does this mean and how can I get my original .plist files?
EDIT: It seems that these files have been wrapped by NSFileWrapper during cloud synchronisation.

The answer as I have now discovered is that .icloud files are the metadata that precedes the full file being downloaded to a device.
