Guys,

i subscribe to 200gb iCloud and share it with my wife. I can see that family has a total of 20gb on icloud but issue the file size in my wife phone is not reduce at all.

I tick the option to optimise iphone storage. I believe this can free up some space on the device storage but it is not happening.

iCloud won't increase your phone capacity. It merely move some pics to cloud only. Best is to clear all the pics manually and sync back to iCloud on the PC.

Alternatively, trade in current iPhone for larger capacity one.

Haha. I understand that with iCloud, all those photo will be reduced in size as phone keep low resolution photos on iphone and original files will be on icould. This way should free up some space in device storage.

Double check if the pictures are backed up in iClould. If yes manually delete the pics of optimization doesn't work.
