Why should you delete iCloud backups?

Before we jump into the steps, let’s understand the importance of deleting iCloud backups. iCloud backups are essential for safeguarding your data in case of any mishaps, but they can quickly accumulate and occupy valuable storage space. Regularly deleting unnecessary backups ensures you have enough room to store new backups or other important files.

Step 1: Accessing iCloud Settings

The first step is accessing your iCloud settings, where you can manage various aspects of your iCloud storage. To do this:

  • Unlock your iOS device and go to the Settings app.
  • Tap on your name at the top of the screen.
  • Select “iCloud” from the menu.
  • Scroll down and tap on “iCloud Storage.”
  • Click on “Manage Storage.”

Step 2: Identifying and selecting backups to delete

Once you’ve reached the iCloud Storage screen, you’ll see a list of your backups and the respective device names. Identify the backups you want to delete by assessing their sizes and the devices they belong to. Select the backups that are no longer needed.

Step 3: Deleting iCloud backups

Deleting iCloud backups is a straightforward process. Follow these simple steps:

  • Click on the backup you wish to delete from the list.
  • In the next screen, tap on “Delete Backup” located at the bottom.
  • A confirmation pop-up will appear. Tap on “Turn Off & Delete” to permanently delete the backup.

Step 4: Repeat the process (if necessary)

If you have multiple unnecessary backups, simply repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have deleted all the backups that are no longer required.

Pro tip: Optimize your iCloud storage

To make the most of your iCloud storage and prevent future backups from burdening your space, consider taking advantage of iCloud’s optimized storage feature:

  • Go back to the iCloud Storage screen.
  • Enable “Optimize Storage” by tapping on it.

Enabling this feature allows your device to automatically optimize your storage by removing older and larger files from your device while keeping them accessible in iCloud.

Congratulations! You have successfully cleared up valuable space by deleting unnecessary iCloud backups. Remember to regularly follow these steps to maintain an organized and spacious iCloud storage for your data. Enjoy your hassle-free iCloud experience!
