I just want to delete my iCloud account to stop having it on in my iphone.

I have tried sign off, but then always pop on again.

Hi,


You can check iCloud Drive* to see if there’s any file remaining - on your iPhone:

> Go to ‘Files’ app

> Go to the ‘home’ page if you’re not already on it (‘browse’ section)

> At the top of this page, you should see different locations - click on iCloud Drive

> If there are, delete the files you want

> Go back, click on ‘Recently deleted’ location

> Delete permanently the files you just deleted


If there’s not any file in iCloud Drive, go back to iCloud storage page, and try to find out which files could remain.


* if you disabled iCloud Drive in iCloud settings, the remaining files are probably not there.
