Mumbai: Google recently announced that it will be adding all your photos and videos on Google Photos, starting in July, 2021, in the connected Google Drive account. This means once your free 15GB storage space is full, you will have to anyway start paying for extra space.

According to the changes, Google will be deleting users’ data from its popular services on accounts that have been inactive for more than two years.

Solution for you

The trick to avoid Google from deactivating your account is pretty simple. You just need to periodically use Gmail, Google Drive or Google Photos on web or mobile while you are signed into your account and connected to the internet.

You don’t really need to use them extensively. You can perhaps just take a look at a few files, delete some mails etc.

Google has said that it is going to notify you multiple times before it removes any content so you just need to keep an eye out for that.
