Is my iCloud storage a total of all devices or the total divided amongst how many devices I have?
For example, if I have 200mg of photos on 3 devices is that 600mg storage needed in iCloud or 200mg in iCloud?

Hello, Pamelalila!
Your iCloud storage is a total of all your devices combined, not divided among them. So, if you have 200MB of photos on each of 3 devices, it would only count as 200MB of iCloud storage in total. iCloud stores your data (like photos, documents, backups, etc.) centrally, so the data is counted once, not per device.
If you're syncing across multiple devices, the same files (like your photos) are accessible from all of them but don't take up extra storage in iCloud for each device.
I hope this helped!

Perfect explanation, thank you so much. 🙏🏽
How is iCloud storage calculated across multiple devices?
