I cloud storage

joesoap1264

hi guys, need bit of advice please.
my I pad says storage on I cloud full.
i took all pics off ages ago and put them on g drive.
nothing in photos at all.
unable to download from it now , in the cloud.
same with printer app ?
it says I have used 15.5 gb of 16 gb available on system !
so should have 0.75gb left on system , presume that’s disc space ?
i cloud says I have used 233 mb of 5 gb available. Free space I presume ?
bit confused as to where I cloud space has gone ?
no messages, mail, etc, never use them.
only a half dozen apps, .

any advice would be much appreciated.

You need to upgrade to 50gb!

Go to the settings app, click on your account name at the top, then iCloud, then Manage storage and it will tell you exactly what is in your icloud

As for storage on your iPad the settings > general > iPad storage to see what is taking your space up. 

Decide if there is anything you can delete to free up space, you should have an option to offload unused apps as well. 

If not, time to upgrade your iCloud and possibly your iPad if you are outgrowing the storage space.

Done all that tallmansix.
seems I will have to pay for extra , nothing else I can take off.
what puzzles me is, it says I have only used 233 mb of my free 5 go on I cloud, I have nothing stored there.
one can no add extra memory to I pads can one, only cloud space ?
thanks for replies guys

Edited.
left it on all night as it recommended to scan ?
it now says 8.5 gb used of 16 gb available, so got extra 7 gb from somewhere..?
cheers all. New pad for new year perhaps.
only. Use it to bank and read paper 🎅🏻

Not familiar with icloud, but is there a trash bin that may need emptied to release storage?

Do you have iCloud backup turned on?
