The free unbounded storage guaranteed by Google Photos ends tomorrow

Google Photographs’ free, boundless storage of high-quality photos will stop on June 1, which is tomorrow. Existing high-quality photographs and videos will be excluded from this change and will not count toward the Google account’s 15GB default storage.Regardless of whether you like it or not, Google Photos’ free boundless storage is coming to an end on June 1st. Unless it comes from a Pixel phone, any photo you upload thereafter (including compressed “storage saver” photographs) counts toward your Google Drive storage limit. If you need bulk functionality, Google One plans start at $2 per month for 100GB of Drive space and go up to $10 per month for 2TB of disk space.

Before June 1st, any pics you upload will also not count toward the maximum, so generate one last backup if you can. Because you’re facing the 15GB limit and don’t want to pay for a monthly membership just yet, you can adjust the quality settings of your snaps from Original to High. Users may also free up space by weeding out undesirable photographs and videos with tools Google has provided for Google Photos. Users may achieve the same effect in Google One by going to the Manage Storage area.

Google has also made it easier to erase unnecessary photographs with something like a tool that recognises blurry images, screenshots, and other stuff that can routinely be eliminated. Last November, Google rationalized the decision as a necessary step to “keep up” with storage demand. It didn’t expect the cap to be reached by 80 percent of Photos users for another three years. Although that was more of a problem for customers who already have completely filled their free Drive space with other files. If you were relying on Google Photos as a backup for your image library, you’re not completely out of luck. Because you only require a free service, use the no-cost tiers for Dropbox or Flickr if you only have a small collection.

There is now a probability that another paid service you use provides cloud storage. A Microsoft 365 association provides 1TB of OneDrive space per customer, even though an Amazon Prime membership includes unlimited photo storage (plus 5GB of video). If you’re an iOS or Mac user, Apple’s iCloud can also help, if somewhat it’s more of a sync service than full storage. Apple potential consumers can use their iPhones or iPads to access Google One. They can indeed consider signing up for Apple One, which was established in India last year and costs Rs 195 and Rs 365 for 50GB and 200GB of storage, respectively. Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, Apple News+, Apple Fitness+, and iCloud would be included in one simple Apple One plan.
