Google may have some ‘bad’ news for WhatsApp users

WhatsApp chat backups on Google Drive is one of the easiest and simplest ways to switch from one device to another without losing important messages and photos/videos. At present, WhatsApp backups do not count against your Google Drive storage quota. But this may change soon.

According to a report by WaBetaInfo, Google may stop offering unlimited storage for WhatsApp backups. Instead, WhatsApp users could be asked to switch to a limited plan– 2000 MB per user. WaBetaInfo is the online platform that tracks WhatsApp upcoming features and updates.

WhatsApp users will be able to manage backup size
