Delete iCloud Drive files?
I'd like to clear my iCloud storage. Unfortunately, when I delete files from iCloud Drive, they also disappear from my iPhone. What can I do to ensure the files are only deleted from iCloud and not from my phone?
Please just explain 🙂
Thanks!!!
You need to select and download the files from your iCloud Drive folder, then they will be saved to the iPhone.
Where exactly download? Unfortunately, the files end up in my recycle bin after I deleted them from iCloud Drive…
No, not delete from the folder but download first (at the three points on the right below). Only when the files are stored on your iPhone can you delete them from the iCloud Drive folder
Then log in to iCloud.com and go to the Drive folder. Then select the files and go up in the middle to the cloud, where you can download the files to your iPhone directly
Thank you. But unfortunately I have no option to download?
