        Hi snowfrill, thanks for messaging the Community.

         

        You wouldn't need to upgrade to view your files on the site or mobile app, only if you need to add more files or sync changes if the account is overquota.

         

        Could you try checking the links that Mark suggested, as well as the shared folders page, since those also add to your quota?

         

        Keep me updated with any updates!
