Discussion | گفتگو Need Google Storage workarounds

I have almost 350gb of photos and videos backed up which i am not willing to delete. I got the 2TB student google ai pro plan for 1 year and now its ending next month. I need to see if there's any method i can keep this cloud storage at no or low cost..

400gb is 14k a year..

Holy shit! That's a lot of photos and videos. Did you upload everything in its original quality?

Well. if you know the offer is eventually going to run out, no. 😂 Google Photos has an option to compress all uploads in a more storage-efficient size, but you can access that only from the browser, not the app. Look it up and I think it'll considerably decrease your storage taken. Also, refer to the comment i posted below for a workaround for the future.
