deleting backups to make room for new backup

On my iphone 13 I have 5 GB and right now it is almost full with backups. What would the option to turn off and delete from icloud do?

This article will probably help you: View and manage iCloud device backups - Apple Support.


Please note that after deleting the backup, you won't have any backup at all. I would recommend that you do backups on a computer instead (Mac or Window PC) in order not to use your iCloud storage: Back up iPhone - Apple Support.


Another option, would be to subscribe to a larger storage iCloud plan.
