How do I downgrade my iCloud storage plan?

I'm trying to downgrade my plan back to the free 5gb but on laptop it says I don't have access. On the iPad it just spun endlessly. BTW, now, on iPad, Settings | General | iPad Storage there is no option to Manage or Downgrade. Thank you.

Ensure that you have a good WiFi connection. If the issue persists, try a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:


Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)

If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:

  1. Press and quickly release the volume button nearest to the top button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume button farthest from the top button.
  3. Press and hold the top button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the top button.




Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)

Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.




After restart, verify your current iCloud storage option - and try again if needed.
