Next iCloud backup size
I have literally every app turned off for backup yet the next backup size is still 6GB. Is there stuff I still need to disable or what?

Hey there Jacob9123,
We appreciate you meeting us here on Apple Support Communities! It looks like your next backup size may exceed what is available in iCloud, so let's take a look at your options together.
Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support has the best information to help you reduce your backup size.
"Make more space available in iCloud
If you run out of iCloud storage, your device won’t back up to iCloud, new photos and videos won't upload to iCloud Photos, and iCloud Drive, other iCloud apps, and messages won't stay up to date across your devices. And you also won't be able to send or receive emails with your iCloud email address.
You can free up storage in iCloud by deleting content that you're not using:
Before you delete anything, you might want to archive or make copies of the information that you store in iCloud."
If you're unable to make enough room in iCloud to complete a backup using the article above, the following resource can help you to purchase additional storage: Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support
If you'd prefer not to upgrade to iCloud+ at this time, you would have the option to create a backup using a computer. You can see what is included in those backups, along with a link to steps to create a backup on Mac or PC at: Backup methods for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
We hope that helps!
Have a lovely day.
