Hello Simsim198,


To clarify, did you use these steps to check your iCloud storage? Check your iCloud storage online or on any device


You can find some good information about how to manage iCloud storage here: Manage your iCloud storage


Just to confirm, was the message you received regarding the size of your iCloud Backup? If so, the "Reduce the size of your iCloud Backup" part of the above link has some information that may help:


Reduce the size of your iCloud Backup

When you back up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to iCloud, the most important information on your device is backed up automatically. Learn more about what iCloud backs up.

Many iOS apps automatically back up to iCloud after you install them. You can decrease the size of your iCloud Backup and free up space in iCloud when you stop backing up apps that you don't use or delete old iCloud backups. 


Thanks!
