Thankfully, it&#8217;s now easier than ever to solve this problem using the magic of the cloud. In this article, we\u2019ll explain in detail how to buy more storage on your iPhone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upgrading Your iPhone Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While <strong>some Android models still require customers to buy memory cards<\/strong> when they need more space on their phone, iPhone users can take advantage of iCloud storage or <a href=\"https:\/\/dataprot.net\/guides\/how-to-get-more-storage-on-iphone\/\">resort to other options to free up storage on their iPhone<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When people talk about buying extra space on their iPhone, they actually mean <strong>buying additional iCloud storage<\/strong>. After you\u2019ve used up your 5 GB of free iCloud storage, you have the option to upgrade. This system allows you to access your files across all devices that are connected to that iCloud.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various Apple storage plans for you to choose from, and they\u2019re available at relatively affordable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The four iCloud storage plans you can choose from are:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>5 GB<\/strong>. You get this plan for free when you buy your iPhone. If you need to go over 5 GB, you can opt for a paid plan, but you can always downgrade to the initial plan if you no longer want to pay for extra storage.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>50 GB<\/strong>. Most users are satisfied with having 50 GB, for which they pay $0.99 per month. You can easily back up two personal devices on the same 50 GB iCloud; using all five permitted devices might be a stretch, though.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>200 GB<\/strong>. This is a bit pricier &#8211; $2.99 per month &#8211; but 200 GB is usually enough to provide storage for five devices comfortably. Families often use this option for their shared iCloud.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2 TB<\/strong>. Finally, you can go all in and choose this $9.99 per month plan if you require a huge amount of storage for your devices. This is more than most families need, but for business purposes, it can be extremely useful.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Buy More iCloud Storage for Your iOS Devices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to buy more iCloud storage, you can do so using your iPhone in just a few clicks. We\u2019ll go through the entire procedure, so if you\u2019re not that tech-savvy and need assistance, you can follow these simple instructions to get the job done.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tap Settings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/6306ffb4535a2.jpg\" alt=\"iPhone home screen\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tap on the name of the iCloud owner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/63070053e9119.jpg\" alt=\"settings on iPhone\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tap <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icloud.com\/iclouddrive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">iCloud<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/630700d520bdf.jpg\" alt=\"apple id in settings\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Tap <strong>Manage Storage<\/strong>. Some versions of iOS will show <strong>iCloud Storage<\/strong> instead.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/63070186de5a6.jpg\" alt=\"iCloud storage options\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Select <strong>Upgrade<\/strong> to the right of <strong>iCloud Storage<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/630702a5f3e64.jpg\" alt=\"iCould storage upgrade\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Select the amount of storage you want, then tap <strong>Buy<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/trinity-core.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com\/dataprot\/assets\/630702fe5161a.png\" alt=\"iCloud upgrade options\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re running out of storage on your iPhone, <strong>there are a few things you can do to free up space<\/strong>. The first step is to take a look at the apps you have installed and see if there are any that you no longer use. But you should never have to delete photos or videos; instead, <strong>just buy more iCloud storage<\/strong> so you can keep all your memories safe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>
