Hi, my dads phone has been run over and having logged into his i cloud the last time it was updated was oct 19. The phone is working (it rings) but the screen is completely smashed and cannot be used and may not be repairable. My question is can I increase my storage online at a pc rather than on the handset So he can get all his content?
In answer to your question.
Yes, you can upgrade the storage space in iCloud from another device, but it requires that you can sign in to the Apple ID that is used on the broken iPhone. If you can't sign in, you can't expand iCloud storage or access the content.
If you have iCloud installed on, for example, a Windows PC, you can expand the storage space there.
How to upgrade on your Windows PC:
Source: Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support
iCloud for Windows can be downloaded from the Microsoft App Store

What does your icloud storage have to do with his phone?
Can I upgrade my storage without my I phone?
