iCloud is a cloud storage service officially provided by Apple . When a user owns an Apple device and registers an Apple ID, he will automatically obtain 5 GB of free iCloud storage space for storing photos, videos, files and other content. If more storage is needed, a paid upgrade is required.
Now, following the launch of the new iPhone 14 series and the official version of iOS 16, Alipay recently announced: From now on, search for "Apple" through the "Alipay" application to enter the "Apple Zone". iCloud users who have not used paid services before can receive a four-month iCloud upgrade package for free, allowing your iCloud storage space to be upgraded from the original 5GB to 50GB.
Currently, most users will install Alipay applications on their devices, so this welfare activity is still worth participating in. Especially for users who want to experience the iCloud feature and are worried about data loss such as photos.
It should be noted that when the free four months have passed, if users want to continue to maintain a 50GB subscription, they can choose to purchase at 6 yuan/month for a paid purchase, or unsubscribe at any time.
The method of managing or unsubscribing the iCloud subscription is as follows:
Open "Settings", tap Apple ID, and select "iCloud" - "Manage Account Storage Space" or "Manage Storage Space".
Tap "Change Storage Plan".
If you want to unsubscribe, tap "Downgrade Options" and enter your Apple ID password.
If you want to select another solution, please select the new storage capacity.
If you want to cancel iCloud+, please select the free 5GB solution or select "None".
Tap "Done" to save. If you cannot tap Done, make sure you are signed in with the same Apple ID you used to subscribe to your iCloud+ subscription plan. You can also try following these steps on another device.
Please note:
1. If you downgrade or cancel the iCloud+ subscription plan, the corresponding changes will take effect after the current subscription billing cycle ends.
2. If the amount of information stored in iCloud exceeds the capacity of the new storage solution, iCloud will not be able to synchronize or update your information. iCloud will update your information again after you increase storage capacity or delete information to make more space.
3. If you downgrade to the free iCloud solution, you will no longer be able to access iCloud+ functions such as "hidden email address", dedicated proxy, and HomeKit security video support.
