If you’re looking to expand your online storage with Apple, then here is our guide for how to do it from your iPhone.

iCloud storage allows you to hold onto files that would far exceed the physical hard drive that you have on your actual device, and so it’s extremely handy to be able to access this wealth of extra resources. However, when you are heading towards exceeding the space you’ve already got, how can you expand your storage space on iCloud? This handy guide shows you exactly how to do it, via your iPhone.
