However, Google announced on November 12, 2020, that it would no longer offer unlimited free photo storage and anyone wishing to store more than that will have to pay for one of the company's storage plans. You also have the option to store at higher resolutions, but the storage will count against your Google Drive quota. Now, does Google Photos have free unlimited storage? No.
But Google has ended unlimited storage on June 1, 2021. The great thing is that Google Photos gives you free, unlimited storage space for photos up to 16 million pixels and videos up to 1080p resolution.
It also has its own website to access and app on all the popular platforms. Google Photos, released in May 2015, later than Google Drive, is a photo-sharing and storage service developed by Google.
