What happens to my iCloud backups if I downgrade to 5 GB?

Existing backups remain for 180 days after downgrading. If you exceed 5 GB, new backups will stop. Apple will warn you before deleting old backups.

Can I cancel iCloud+ through the web?

Yes. You can manage your iCloud+ subscription at appleid.apple.com by going to Subscriptions > iCloud+, though the process is easiest on an Apple device.

Will cancelling iCloud+ affect my iCloud Private Relay or Hide My Email features?

Yes. iCloud Private Relay, Hide My Email, and HomeKit Secure Video are iCloud+ exclusive features. They will stop working when you downgrade to the free 5 GB plan.

Mẹo giữ chân

Before downgrading, consider that your iPhone backups, photos, and iCloud Drive files may stop syncing once you exceed 5 GB. We have a 50 GB plan for just $0.99/month — the price of a coffee — to keep everything backed up. Would you like to switch to that instead?
