Do you have a family sharing plan but wish to share your iCloud storage with your loved ones as well? We’ve got you covered! Here’s a comprehensive guide that will walk you through how to share iCloud storage with your family.
Step 1: Check Your iCloud Storage Plan
Before you can share your iCloud storage, you must ensure that you have the right storage plan. Navigate to your iCloud storage settings and make sure that you have a plan that allows for sharing. You can choose from 200 GB, 500 GB, or 2 TB storage options.
Step 2: Invite Your Family Members to Join Your iCloud Storage Plan
Open the settings app on your device and click on your name. Select the Family Sharing option and then choose iCloud storage. From there, you can invite up to five family members to join your plan. Once you’ve sent out the invitations, each family member will receive a notification asking them to accept or decline the invite.
If the invitation is accepted, each family member will have access to the shared storage plan. You can choose to allocate the storage space manually or have it distributed automatically based on usage. You can also monitor how much storage is being used and adjust the allocation if necessary.
