Google Photos will bid farewell to unlimited HQ cloud photo and video storage in June 2021

In recent years, Google Photos has attracted a lot of loyal and old users by virtue of its ability to store unlimited high-definition photos and videos. Unfortunately, the free shuttle bus will end at the end of this month. As early as last fall, Google announced that it would implement a new policy from June 1, 2021. New photos and videos uploaded to the cloud at that time will be included in the 15GB of free storage space in the user’s Google account (including Gmail and netdisc).

If you have collected a lot of precious memories, please remember to upload them to the Google Photos cloud album before it becomes effective at the beginning of next month to avoid occupying the precious 15GB of free storage space. When uploading, you must also pay attention to check the format settings by clicking the Upload Photo and Video Size item in Google Photos, and then sliding the High-Quality button next to it.

At the same time, you will see a notification near the top of the page reminding you of important updates to the Google Photos cloud storage policy. After clicking Learn More, users who have logged in to their Google accounts can see how much storage space can be left for photos and videos after June 1.

According to Google, after the implementation of the new 15GB policy, more than 80% of users can still store content for about 3 years. When the storage space limit is about to be triggered, the system will notify you in time. Users in need can choose to expand storage space through a paid Google One package. The monthly fee for 100/200GB is US$1.99/2.99, and the monthly fee for 2TB is US$9.99.

If you don’t want to pay for additional storage space, Google will also start to provide everyone with a new free access tool in June, so that everyone can easily manage and back up photos and videos in the cloud.
