Google Drive Bonus Storage Is Expiring
Google Drive Bonus Storage Is Expiring
2 years ago, Google offered 10 GB of free storage for installing the Quickoffice app for Android or iOS. Unfortunately, Googles bonus storage is about to expire.
"We wanted to let you know that you have bonus Google Drive storage expiring on Oct 3 2015. While this bonus period is coming to an end, you can always purchase additional storage," informs Google. "Rest assured that your files in Google Drive remain safe and accessible by you and the people youve shared them with. You just wont be able to add or sync any files unless you are using less than your current available storage or youve purchased additional storage."
Basically, Google wont delete your files, but youll have to delete some of them or purchase more storage if you actually used the 10 GB bonus storage. Since the storage is shared between Gmail, Google Photos and Google Drive, all of these services are affected and you can also delete Gmail messages with large attachments or photos and videos from Google Photos that use your Google storage. Heres how to find Gmail messages with big attachments and a list of Google Drive files sorted by size.
