In a move that’s bound to delight Apple enthusiasts and digital content creators, Apple announced some new higher storage options for its iCloud+ storage plans during its ‘Wonderlust’ iPhone 15 event. The introduction of 6TB and 12TB plans is set to redefine the way we store and manage our photos, videos, documents, and data.
In this blog post, we’ll dive into the details of these new storage options, their pricing, and what they mean for iCloud users.
More Space for Your Digital Life
Up until now, Apple’s individual iCloud accounts topped out at a respectable 2TB of storage space for a monthly fee of $9.99. However, starting on September 18, Apple is taking things to the next level by introducing 6TB and 12TB storage plans. This expanded storage capacity is designed to cater to the ever-growing demand for space to store personal data, media, and more.
What It Will Cost You
Now, let’s talk pricing. The new 6TB iCloud+ plan is available for $29.99 per month, while the 12TB plan comes in at $59.99 per month. While these new tiers offer significantly more storage, they also come with a higher price tag. However, for those who have been craving more space, it could be a worthwhile investment.
Share the Wealth
One of the standout features of iCloud+ plans is the ability to share your storage with up to six people through Family Sharing. This means that not only can you enjoy the benefits of increased storage, but your loved ones can also make use of the extra space for their own files and media.

Beyond Storage
It’s not just about the storage. These new tiers also include all the additional iCloud+ features, such as iCloud Private Relay and HomeKit Secure Video. So, along with ample space, you’ll get enhanced security and privacy features to protect your data.
The Big Question: Apple One Premier Compatibility
While it’s clear that these new iCloud+ tiers offer substantial storage upgrades, there’s one question on the minds of many: Can you combine these tiers with an Apple One Premier subscription? If this were possible, it would mean a total storage allocation of a whopping 14TB. However, at the time of writing, it remains unclear whether these new storage plans can be bundled with an Apple One Premier subscription.
Apple’s decision to introduce these higher storage options in iCloud+ is undoubtedly a game-changer for users who have already maxed out their previous allocation. With these new plans, you’ll have the room you need to store your digital life without constantly worrying about running out of space. Starting from Monday, September 18, you can subscribe to these larger iCloud plans and take your digital storage to new heights. While these new tiers may come with a higher price tag, for those who value space and seamless integration into the Apple ecosystem, they could prove to be an essential investment.
