Scroll down and look for Google Photos and ensure the box is checked.$1.99 a month is actually rather reasonable all things considered, but if you’d rather not pay and decide that maybe you’re better off managing your own photos backup, then here’s how you can download everything from Google Photos to your computer where you can choose to manage it through on your computer’s hard drive, an external drive, or upload it to a different cloud service. One of the reasons why many use Google Photos as their backup for photos is because for the longest time ever, Google Photos offered users free, unlimited storage if they chose to upload photos at the “High quality” settings instead of “Original” (which can sometimes be bigger, depending on the resolution of your images).īut Google is set to change that come 1st of June, 2020 where the company announced that they will be ending the free, unlimited storage across the board, and will instead give users 15GB of free data, after which they’ll need to pay a minimum of $1.99 a month for 100GB.
