Increases
At the UK, for example, Apple's iCloud 50GB plan has been raised from £0.79 to £0.99, the 200GB plan has been raised from £2.49 to £2.99, and the 2 TB has risen from £6.99 to £8.99.
For now, prices in the United States remain unchanged, as do Apple One prices globally.
According to experts, it is likely that these increases have the objective of adjusting prices to exchange rate fluctuations that have occurred in recent months.
However, this justification is not comforting users who will soon have to spend more to maintain their monthly storage.
On social networks, user dissatisfaction is evident. Many of them expressed their frustration with the situation, criticizing Apple for appearing greedy in making these increases.
In addition, they point out that the company does not offer additional storage options between 200GB and 2TB, which bothers those who need more space, but not that much.
Other options
Remember that Apple still offers 5 GB of free iCloud storage for all iPhone users. However, this option is only suitable for those who have a limited amount of files, videos and images.
For those who need more space, there are alternatives, such as switching to a cheaper plan for additional storage or freeing up space by deleting unnecessary items.
While these increases may seem small, they result in an unprecedented situation: now, the best storage options on the google cloud are cheaper than Apple's.
Apple fans are now waiting to see if these price increases will be applied in other countries.
In the meantime, they will have to decide if they are willing to pay more for the convenience of iCloud or if they will look for more affordable and competitive options in the cloud storage market.
