How do I unsubscribe to extra iCloud storage?

Hello,

The below article gives instruction for downgrading or canceling your iCloud+ subscription. Keep in mind, if you cancel it completely you will only have the standard 5GB storage available. Make sure to move any data from iCloud that would exceed the 5GB to prevent losing any of your data.

Downgrade or cancel your iCloud+ plan - Apple Support

"Before you downgrade or cancel your iCloud+ plan, first download or remove content that exceeds your new storage amount. To make sure that you don't lose any information, learn how to copy what you store in iCloud."

...

"What happens when you downgrade or cancel iCloud+

• If your iCloud storage exceeds your new storage plan capacity, iCloud won't sync or update your information. iCloud updates again when you increase your storage capacity or delete information to make more space. 
• If you downgrade to the free iCloud plan, you will no longer have access to iCloud+ features like Hide My Email, Private Relay, and HomeKit Secure Video support.2
• If you pay for both Apple One and an iCloud+ plan, you can downgrade or cancel the iCloud+ plan and just use the iCloud+ plan included in Apple One. After you select Change Storage Plan, there might be additional steps before you can downgrade or cancel your storage."

I hope this helps.
