Hi
I have long had the $.99/mo plan but my wife got the 200GB for the family. We have Family sharing enabled and it says that my wife is sharing iCloud + with me. However, my iCloud seems to be limited and says that I have 50GB both on my ipHone and on my Mac.
Does that mean I have 1/4 of her iCloud allocated to me? Can I turn off my original $.99/mo plan?
Thanks!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.14
Thank you! That works on iOS but the settings in iCloud subscriptions on the Mac do not show this option. It shows my wife’s plan and the fact that I am “not using” only with no option to join.
The iOS solution has me up and running though. Thanks!

No. It means you are still using your own 99c plan.

You can join her plan, and it will automatically cancel yours, but you must manually join it. Click the link below and follow the steps shown there to join her storage plan.

You just need to join it from one device. Unless the Mac is using a different Apple ID for iCloud that the iOS device, it should automatically switch when you join it on iOS as the iCloud subscription is tied to your Apple ID not a specific device.
