Troubleshooting File Sharing:


A. About Internal Storage:

Internal storage cannot be upgraded. It is what it is. So, the maximum internal storage capacity never increases, even if you upgraded your iCloud plan. Learn More here: What's the Difference Between Device Storage and iCloud Storage? Apple Support.


B. Using Family Storage:

Using your own accounts, you can share items through use of Family Sharing. Learn More here: Family Sharing - Apple
