Google Photos unlimited or free storage offer ends today, i.e on June 1, 2021. Now, this could disappoint a lot of smartphone users, especially all the photography enthusiasts out there. The tech giant had announced about this change in Google Photos last year. In simple words, storing of high-quality photos will not be ‘absolutely free’ from today onward.
With the new storage policy coming into effect today, the 15GB free storage that comes with every Google account will now also include Google Photos. Google says, with the change to the high quality storage policy it “wants to keep pace with the growing demand for storage and build Google Photos for the future.” So, from today onward, any new photos and videos you backup will count toward the free 15GB of storage that comes with every Google Account.
If your Google Photos is out of space and you need more storage to save your personal photographs, we suggest you go back and delete all the unwanted photos and videos. Delete blurry photos and the ones that you think are unnecessary and you would not like to keep them.
