Unable to delete WhatsApp backup from iCloud The free space in my iCloud account is almost over and I would like to get some more storage by deleting Whatsapp backup. I went to "Manage Account Storage" > Whatsapp > "Delete Data from iCloud button" > "Delete" and nothing happens. I tried many ways to get this to work without success: hard iPhone reset, sign out and sign in back to my iCloud account, deactivate backup in Whatsapp. Also there is no option in Whatsapp to delete iCloud backup. What should I do? Buying more iCloud storage is not an option.

you fix it by removing or offloading 20 gb of data.
