HELP! I bought a 200GB storage plan for Icloud, i backed up and updated all my data on my Icloud, deleted the photos from my Iphone because I always get the “full storage” message and now everything I deleted from my Iphone is deleted from my Icloud too. What is the point of paying for 200 gb icloud storage if everything gets deleted anyway?😓

iPhone 11, iOS 13

As you can see, your photos are taking ~2GB of storage, that's fine because your phone still has to store low-quality versions of your photos.


You could free some storage by deleting your lightroom files, or creating a full backup of your device and doing a factory reset to remove most of the "other" section.
