Storage issues My daughter is apart of our family storage plan, but her phone keeps telling her she is out of storage. When you go to Settings, General, Storage it doesn't show our 2T of storage on the family plan. When you go to our family plan it states that it has been accepted and that we have plenty of storage. We just did the most recent update and have deleted things off her phone, but it is still happening. What is going on?

Family consuming excess Family Storage despite having free space on their devices? I have activated Family Plan of 200GB storage. But my family is consuming Family storage even though they have still storage in their own devices. For example one member consuming 135GB from that storage ( who has 10 GB free storage in his device) and another member consuming 35 GB ( who has 50 GB free storage in his device). Really it is not meaningful. Becos if they are full, they can use this Family storage. But why it is been allowed as they still have their device storage and finally iam not able to use that memory and my mobile is hanging often. How to solve this?? Is there any way to restrict them using the storage upto certain limit.??? I use this family sharing mainly to allow them using Apple Music... [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Family Member “not using” shared iCloud storage How do I get my daughter to use our family sharing plan? Does she need to do something on her phone settings?

The storage on your personal iPhone has nothing to do with the storage on family members in your family share plan. If you were being notified your iCloud storage was too low, that would affect other family members if you share iCloud storage with them.

If the memory on your iPhone is low, you need to delete things you don't need or use, such as apps, photos, music, files, messages, email, etc. There is no way to increase the memory on an iPhone.
