To stop paying for iCloud storage and revert to the free storage plan, you can follow these steps:

• On your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings, then tap on your name, and select iCloud.

• Tap on Manage Storage, then Change Storage Plan.

• Select Downgrade Options and choose the Free 5GB plan.

• Confirm the change and follow any additional prompts to complete the process.

Alternatively, you can manage your storage plan through the iCloud website on a computer:

• Go to iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID.

• Click on Account Settings, then Manage next to iCloud Storage.

• Select Downgrade Options and follow the prompts to switch to the Free 5GB plan.

By following these steps, you can stop paying for iCloud storage and switch back to the free storage tier. You can also cancel your iCloud storage plan on an Android phone if your iPhone is no longer available.

In addition, if you don't choose iCloud+ storage plan, you can backup or transfer data from your iPhone to computer to free up the iPhone storage. Here I recommend EaseUS MobiMover. It's an all-in-one solution for iOS data transferring and management. You can transfer everything between iPhone and computer, including photos, videos, contacts, notes, files and other content.

Apart from iOS data management, it also enables you to manage, edit, upload or delete content from your iCloud account. It's really a one-stop solution for Apple users especially for iOS users to move data between two devices.
