Extra Storage- wasted?

I've been paying for extra storage for a broken iPad for about 4 years at £2.49 per month. I'm not sure whether the extra data has been shared to my newer ipads or I've just been throwing money away ! How can i check please.

iPhone 5c, iOS 10

Your 200GB iCloud storage quota (corresponding with your £2.49 monthly subscription) is shared across all devices that share the same AppleID - and for higher storage tiers, can also be shared with others using Apple Family Sharing.


You can see precisely how much of your iCloud storage is being used from your device:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud


At the top of the settings page you will see both your current storage quota - and the amount of iCloud storage currently used. If you tap Manage Storage, you can see more detail and a breakdown by individual Apps. Here you can also manage your iCloud storage subscription; tapping the Change Storage Plan link will take you to a page where you can upgrade or downgrade your monthly subscription.
