Today in this article we are going to discuss about Google Photos will End Free Unlimited Backup Storage from June 2021. Google Photos is a photo sharing and storage service developed by Google. It was announced in May 2015 and separated from Google+, the company’s former social network. Photos will give users free, unlimited storage for photos up to 16 megapixels and videos up to 1080p resolution
Google has a service called Google Photos that allows you to upload and backup all the photos in your phone without any restrictions. It’s also completely free and unlimited! Many people use Google’s service to back up photos and videos from their phones to Google. But now it will be limited after June 2021 and the backup will also be counted in the 15GB storage you get with your Google account! This news can be special for many as many people are relying on this storage to back it up.
Google Photos will End Free Unlimited Backup Storage from June 2021:
Google Photos has two options, High Quality and Original. Now if you upload via high quality option, the photo or video is compressed and then you can get free backup by doing unlimited uploads (now only till June 2021). If uploaded by the original option, the photo is uploaded in the same size as it is, so this photo will be counted in 15GB of Google account.

Free 15GB storage with Google Account will combine Gmail, Google Drive and now Google Photos. So if you use a lot of Gmail attachments or Google Drive you have a lot of files, then Google Photos is definitely not enough space. According to Google, the decision was made because many did not meet the 15GB storage limit.
You can still get free unlimited backups till June 2021. The data will not be deleted after June 2021.
If your 15GB Google Account storage is full while uploading after June 2021, you will have to pay and subscribe to Google One. After which you will get 100GB more storage on 15GB. Google One is Google’s cloud storage service. It can also take more storage as per plans. Google One comes with many other features besides storage. More info: https://one.google.com/about
