Google Photos decided to remove free unlimited storage next year
Google photos provided unlimited cloud storage to upload our photos. It allowed us to upload high quality photos for free. But unfortunately they have decided to remove it next year.
After June 1, 2021, google photos will limit their cloud space to 15gb. If you need more space you have to pay $1.99 monthly for 100Gb.
The Vice President of Google Photos Shimrit Ben-Yair say “We know this is a big shift and may come as a surprise, so we wanted to let you know well in advance and give you resources to make this easier."
This policy change applies only to new photos and videos uploaded after June 1, 2021. Therefore, photos and videos uploaded before June 1, 2021 do not count for your storage capacity. Google says that roughly 85 percent of Google Photo users have not used their 15GB capacity in about three years since the new policy went into effect. If you have a pixel phone you will not be affected by this policy change, you can continue to upload high quality pictures.
Google has also decided to introduce a new tool to easily remove unwanted photos, blurry photos and large videos that we have uploaded. It also shows that Google Photos is set to add a large number of new features in the future.
However, google photos is far ahead of the photos software in apple.
