Google Photos,Original Quality,Google Photos Storage Saver

I’ve been working as a technology journalist since the early nineties. My passion is photography and the ever-changing hardware and software that we use to create it, be it traditional cameras and Photoshop or smartphones and tablets with their numerous apps.

Google Photos users on mobile devices may soon be able to dramatically reduce their storage use by using an as-yet-unreleased feature previously available only via a Web browser., the new feature, which isn’t currently enabled, allows users to free up significant amounts of Google One storage space by converting original quality photos into Google’s space-saving storage saver format. Cutting down on storage use in this way could avoid having to pay for a pricey Google One storage plan upgrade.

As is always the case with such discoveries, there’s no guarantee that Google will enable the features for end users. Still, it seems highly likely, given that the feature is already available via desktop browsers.Storage Saver mode, previously called “High Quality” mode, limits photos to a maximum of 16 Megapixels and applies image compression to save space. It also adds additional compression to videos while limiting them to a maximum of 1080p.
