Family sharing storage transition?
I’m thinking of upgrading to a family share plan for iCloud storage. Currently we each pay for 50GB. If I upgrade to the 200GB will Apple automatically realize not charge my husband for his 50GB?
iPad, iOS 13

Yes, Apple will realize it.

What comes next
When you share your iCloud storage, any family members using the free 5GB plan are added to your family plan automatically.
If a family member is already paying for their own iCloud storage plan, they can choose to switch to your plan or keep their own and still remain part of the family. When they switch to the shared family plan, they get a refund for the remainder of their personal plan. They can't keep their current plan and use the shared family plan at the same time.
Once they accept the invitation to share storage, they will no longer be charged for their own storage and will receive the refund for the remainder of their plan.
