Downgrade or cancel your iCloud storage plan

If your iCloud storage exceeds your new storage plan capacity, iCloud won't sync or update your information. iCloud updates again when you increase your storage capacity or delete information to make more space. 

If you downgrade or cancel your plan, the storage change takes effect after your current subscription billing period ends.* If you downgrade to the free iCloud Storage plan, you'll have 5GB of storage.

• To help free up space, learn how to delete information that you don't need anymore.

Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, iCloud storage, and more are combined into one simple plan with Apple One. If you already have an iCloud storage plan, you don't need to cancel it when you sign up for Apple One. Learn what happens to your iCloud storage when you subscribe. 

If you pay for both Apple One and an iCloud storage plan, you can downgrade or cancel the iCloud storage plan and just use the iCloud storage included in Apple One.

If you downgrade or cancel the iCloud storage included in Apple One, you also cancel your Apple One subscription. Learn how to see or cancel your subscriptions. 

If you can't click Done, make sure you are signed in with the same Apple ID as your iCloud storage plan. You can also try following these steps on a different device. If you still need help, contact Apple Support.
