Wondering how long your Google Photo storage will last? Here’s a handy tool to help

Last week Google announced that Google Photos will no longer support unlimited and free high-quality storage policy. The change will come into effect from June 1, 2021. Basically from this date, all high-quality photos and videos you upload to Google Photos will count against your Google Drive Storage, which is a departure from the earlier policy. Keep in mind that photos and videos uploaded at original resolution were already counted against the storage; the free policy was for high-quality and express quality photos and videos.

For many Google Photos users, this news definitely comes as a disappointment, given the service had become the default option to store photos online without worrying about space. With the free storage option going away, if you were wondering how long your Google Storage will last, the company has announced a handy new tool as well.
