Will Apple consider increasing iCloud storage?

I have been a loyal Apple customer and own the following products: MacBook Pro M1 Pro, iPad Pro 11 inch M4 and iPhone SE 2nd edition. For years Apple has been offering iCloud storage of 5 GB. Given the technology in storage and the amount of data/memory that apps take now a days, will Apple consider increasing iCloud storage from their 5 GB limit to something more current? Why not double it to 10 GB? That would be great if Apple can do this for their customers so not to have these (your iCloud storage is almost full) messages. Please consider your customer base Apple.

iPhone SE, iOS 18

Of course there are already higher storage options available for iCloud up to 12TB for an additional fee. If you are hoping for Apple to up the complimentary storage from 5 GB to 10GB I don't think that will happen. Why would it?

50GB of storage costs a measly 99¢ a month.

I suggest paying 99¢ a month for iCloud+. In addition to getting 50GB you also get Private Relay, Hide My Email and Custom email. And, if 5GB is not sufficient your your needs, 10GB won’t be enough either.
