drop iCloud, how to when steps are blocked by Apple I want to stop using icloud. When I ask how, apple tells me to do something on the screen which is not doable. In other words, the promised links or next steps are not there. There is a prominent block stating to upgrade to more space or something like that. I do not want to upgrade, I want to delete. I want to get out of iCloud. Please do not send me the steps that come up when I ask Google. Those steps are not available on Apple. Is this a marketing technique? If so, it's sleazy.

My iPad Pro doesn´t allow to turn on iCloud Drive. My iPad Pro (iOS 16.2) doesn´t give a option to turn on iCloud Drive. If I choose settings>myname>iCloud, there isn´t mention iCloud Drive. Under the list of apps using iCloud, there are iCloud Mail, Notes, Messages, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Safari, Stocks, Home, Game Center, Siri and Freeform. Nothing else. I have tried restart, log out from my Apple ID account etc. To be frank, I dont have any ideas.

Good one 👍🏻 I completely agree, it's incredibly user-unfriendly and driven purely by marketing.
