I have the basic iCloud plan and iMessage takes all my space because it uploads the pictures and videos but I don't need them uploaded on iCloud, is there a way to only upload the text messages?
iPhone X, iOS 16
Hi there 乃尺凵刀口,
Thank you for posting to Apple Support Communities.
We understand you'd like to delete attachments from Messages in iCloud. Is that right?
Messages cannot be set to sync text only. If you'd like to leave Apple feedback about this behavior, you can do so here: Product Feedback
However, you can manage the storage through Messages or contacts in your Contacts app. Apple has a great support document that explains this under the section, "Delete texts and attachments in Messages" Manage your iCloud storage - Apple Support
That should help. Let us know if you have any questions.
Take care.

But if I end up deleting iMessage from my iCloud will I still have access to all the photos and videos on my phone? Becuase they get backed up on the cloud and they get deleted from my phone
Hey there 乃尺凵刀口,
Should you choose to turn off Messages in iCloud, you will have access to all Messages data stored on your phone.
Have a good one!
Is there a way to not upload pictures and videos from iMessages to iCloud?
