Question about iCloud storage (feddit.de)

I have a 50GB plan that is almost used up. My wife has a Apple One plan 200GB that she shared with our family (including me), but my phone only syncs to my 50GB plan.

If I cancel my 50GB plan, data would still be available for 30 days. Would the data automatically transfer to a new plan, e.g. my wife’s Apple One plan? Or what happens when she cancels her Apple One plan and I start a new one? Would her data transfer over to the one I would buy and share?

Documentation on this is not clear, and I don’t want to lose my data.

For some reason it doesn’t. Also, our kids are still on my 50GB plan I initially shared with them, but would be able to switch over to my wife‘s plan now. I just don’t know, whether their data (especially photos) would seamlessly transfer over?

Looks like my wife didn’t have the sharing checkbox for iCloud storage selected — which is distinct from the Apple One Abonnement which includes the storage. Oh well, looks fine now. And the data didn’t get lost.
