Icloud storage almost full even after deleting some photos and icloud drive

Hi BriThibodeaux,

It sounds like you have deleted the photos you don't want in iCloud as well as preeminently deleted it from the trash as seen in Manage your iCloud storage. If it's the case that you still see photos and videos taking up space in iCloud, could you still have photos uploading iCloud? If the amount of photos and videos you have on your device is still more than the allotted 5gb, and iCloud Photos is turned on, it could be filling this space with your current photos. If you no longer what to use iCloud Photos, see "How do I remove all iCloud Photos content from iCloud and my devices?" in Get help with iCloud Photos.

Hope this helps.

Have a good day.

You can got to setting on your device.

Click on “ General”

Click on “IPhone Storage”

Delete / offload any unused or unneeded apps.

Or you can click on your Apple ID under setting.

Click on “ iCloud”

Toggle off any unnecessary apps.

Then click on “Manage Storage”

Click on “ iCloud Backup”

Click on your device

Toggle off any unnecessary apps

There are a few options available; I will list 2 options.

Option one

Go to Setting on your device

Scroll down and click on “General”

Scroll down and click on “iPhone Storage”

Scroll through the list and click on any unused or unnecessary apps list.

Then click on “Offload App” or “ Delete App”

Option two

Click on your Apple ID under the setting on your device.

Click on “ iCloud”

Scroll down through the list and toggle off any unnecessary apps.

Then click on “Manage Storage at the top.

Click on “ Backup”

Click on your device

Scroll through the list & toggle off any unnecessary apps listed under your storage.

This is only two of the several different options available. Hope it helps.
