Google Photos’ Free Unlimited Storage ends tomorrow

Like that or not, the moment is almost here: Google Photos puts an end to its free unlimited storage on June 1st. From that moment, any photo you download (including compressed storage storage saver “) counts to your Google Drive storage limit except comes from a pixel phone. If you need more than Space, you will have to pay for Google One plans that start at $ 2 a month for 100 GB of driving space and scale at 2 TO for $ 10 per month.

All photos you downloaded before June 1st will not count to the cap. You will want to enter a last backup if you can. Google has also facilitated unwanted photos via a blurred snapshot, screenshots, and other items you can usually delete.

Google explained the move last November as a necessary step to “follow the pace” with the storage request. This did not expect 80% of the users of photos that strike the cap for three years still, although it is more of a problem for people whose free driving space was already in charge of another content.

You are not completely stuck if you count on Google Photos as backup for your image library. If you need a free service, you can use non-cost levels of services such as Dropbox or Flickr if you have a modest collection. And there is a real chance another paid service that you use can offer a cloud storage in its own right. A Amazon Prime subscription provides unlimited unlimited photos (plus 5 GB of video), while membership in Microsoft 365 offers 1 to OneDrive space per person. Apple’s iCloud can also help if you are an iOS or MAC user, although this is more than one synchronization service than full storage.
