I just want to delete my iCloud account to stop having it on in my iphone.
I have tried sign off, but then always pop on again.
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 15
Hi,
Well, iCloud comes with your Apple ID.
You can’t ‘remove it’ - you can however go to settings > your Apple ID > iCloud > you turn off everything such as iCloud photos, backups, keychain…etc
Basically you just delete everything in iCloud.

Hi,
Did you follow steps on this article?

Hi,
You can check iCloud Drive* to see if there’s any file remaining - on your iPhone:
> Go to ‘Files’ app
> Go to the ‘home’ page if you’re not already on it (‘browse’ section)
> At the top of this page, you should see different locations - click on iCloud Drive
> If there are, delete the files you want
> Go back, click on ‘Recently deleted’ location
> Delete permanently the files you just deleted
If there’s not any file in iCloud Drive, go back to iCloud storage page, and try to find out which files could remain.
* if you disabled iCloud Drive in iCloud settings, the remaining files are probably not there.
Yes, but then how can I sign in my Apple ID without sign in my iCloud?
Thanks Remi, understood.
Just a minor question, through iCloud I still see 250kb of files/documents and i am not able to delete them… any thoughts on how to do it?
