On an iPhone you use the apps to access your cloud documents and data, the Photos.app to access photos and videos, Pages or Keynote or Numbers to *** iWork documents, the Files.app to access the items on iCloud Drive.


On a computer you can use the web interface at www.icloud.com to access your cloud documents and are not limited to specific apps. A web browser on a computer is showing you the Desktop version of www.icloud.com , while the iPhone will show you the mobile version, which is very different.
