Downgrade iCloud storage plan on iPhone, what happens to backed up files?

I need more space to do a backup. If I pay 99 cents for more storage and decide to cancel it, what happens to the data that was backed up while on the upgraded storage plan?

If you're over the limit, then everything stays there but you can't save anything new until you delete enough stuff so that you're back under the limit for your plan.

Um, you got me on that one, I would like to know too… Lol

  • Where are my backed up iphone files (photos) in my computer? So I just wanted to plug in my iphone 5 to my dads computer (its a pc) so i could download some of his music lol but it made me back up my iphone so i was like ok ya whatever, but now i'm concerned because my plan was to back up my iphone, and then delete everything off his computer… I just have photos and videos and such that parents shouldn't see lol so does anyone know where these files are?
  • IPhone storage full but iCloud storage not? I'm in the Navy and I'm going on deployment soon so, I'm racking up on stuff like movies and music so I won't be bored during deployment… I'm 3 seasons in on downloading stuff on Netflix and it says my storage is full… I deleted a lot of useless apps and music already and I downloaded a few more then it happened again… I see my iCloud storage is very empty but my phone storage is too full… How can I fix this.
  • If I Downgraded my Storage plan I previously bought on a phone with smaller GB, will it take away some of my storage on my new phone? I ran out of storage on my old iPhone SE so I was paying .99 cents a month for 50 GB, but now I have an iPhone 8 Plus which is 64 GB. ICloud was continuing to charge me .99 cents a month and I just now figured out how to discontinue it, but it said that if I did so I would only have 5 GB of storage. Should I be concerned?
  • ICloud storage and iPhone storage? So I had 2.5 GB of space left on my iPhone. I turned on iCloud so I could save photos then delete them but then I got more space on iCloud ($0.99 a month) and suddenly it added 1000+ photos that were on another apple device I had. But surprisingly my phone space was at 2.8 GB Which is more space than before and my iCloud storage was lower. I have photo stream on. Does this mean any new photos saved to iCloud don't take space up on my phone, just takes up space in iCloud?
