iCloud iCloud storage options rant

[azentropy]

I keep getting warnings that my Family 200GB is running low. Really wish there was an option for $1 or $2 or $3 to go from 200GB to 300GB or 400GB or 500GB instead of having to pay $7 more to go all the way to 1TB.
I guess I'm going to have to give in as there isn't much more I can easily reduce anymore.

I didn't think there was a 1TB option? Goes from 50GB to 200GB to 2TB:

iCloud+ plans and pricing - Apple Support

When you sign up for iCloud, you automatically get 5GB of free storage. If you need more space in iCloud, you can upgrade to iCloud+.

I remember thinking that was extremely odd that there was such a huge gap between 200GB and 2TB with no 1TB option in between.

I personally use OneDrive since 1TB is included with my Microsoft 365 subscription. They have the following upgrade options beyond that (the GBs/TBs below are in addition to the included 1TB):

Think they increased it at some point. But I agree they need a middle ground for like $5.99 for 1TB or such

Yeah I think most of the companies just made their 1TB a 2TB option for the same price.

My family and I use almost 600GB total.

Yes, that is correct - it goes from 200GB to 2TB. My typo or brain fart.

Oh and I caved as had two other family members complain to me today about the warnings. Hopefully they will ad options later and I'll be able to downgrade.

The other move you can do if you can stay within 400GB and use the services is get One Family and stack that 200 with the separate one.
