It's an indication that the content or app you're looking at is not stored locally, but can be downloaded from the cloud. Tap it to download it.

Am I confused? I have never enabled the Cloud. U say that I am downloading apps from the Cloud... how can this be? I guess there is no harm here, but I would like to think that the Cloud hasn’t been acyivated in my IPhone ... or at least get an dxpkanation. RVSP .... I appreciate your efforts. I await your next info.
