The space that Apple gives us for free in iCloud just for being users of an Apple ID is extremely small, 5GB, depending on which users do not even have enough for a single backup. However, some do settle for those 5GB. In short, to save space we can delete some of the backups that we already have stored in our iCloud. In Actualidad iPad we want to teach you how to delete the backup copies that we have in iCloud in an easy way, a new tutorial for you to get the most out of your iPad.
The procedure is quite simple, but you must follow our steps that we indicate here below, so you will save possible errors that cost you annoying:
- How could it be otherwise, first we went to the Settings section of the iPhone.
- We navigate within the menu «General" until "Storage and iCloud«
- Once inside, at the top we will see the total storage of the device, at the bottom the iCloud storage, the one that interests us.
- Click on "Manage Storage".
- Here we can see the list and the dates of our backups. When we select one, a new menu of options will open.
- In this menu, the list of applications that have stored their information in iCloud will appear, as well as other functions. We must wait for the properties of this backup to be loaded efficiently, and at the bottom, in red, the word «Delete this copy«.
- If we press it, the backup copy will be deleted.
