No matter how much I free up Google shared storage by deleting emails or photos, it’s a battle I can’t win. I keep backing up photos, I keep getting emails, and now even my WhatsApp backup is getting reduced. There’s no choice but to check. For now I have the minimum package, 1.99 dollars per month for 100 gigabytes.
However, Google is testing a 30GB Lite plan at an irresistible price and it would be perfect for both me and many people who need a little more than the free 15GB but don’t want to pay more than necessary. The bad news is exclusively for India.
Google, we want the Google One Lite plan
Either you pay nothing for the 15GB of shared storage that Google gives you, or now you need to upgrade to 100GB of storage for 1.99 dollars per month, 19.99 dollars per year. These are the Google One plans available today, with the aggravating factor that over time, Google has removed the benefits of paying for Google One.
What if there was an earlier, cheaper step? It seems incredible that Google took so long to think about it, but it’s already testing a Lite plan for some users in India that gives you 30GB of storage for about half a euro59 rupees to be exact.
This is an ideal plan for those who have just exceeded the free space and I am sure it would be very popular worldwide. If it existed when the Google Photos backup countdown began, I would have hired him much sooner that I ended up aiming for the current 100GB.
Of course, there is a little trick. This basic package cannot be shared with your familywhich is one of the tricks to get the most out of Google One subscriptions. If you weren’t planning on sharing it anyway, this is a perfect plan.
Now all we have to do is Google decides to offer this package worldwidesomething I’m not too sure will happen. Hope is never lost, although the more time passes, the less I feel about those 30GB of storage.
