Understanding Storage

Your storage limit depends on your subscription plan:

PlanStorage
Free500 MB
Personal50 GB
Family100 GB (shared)

Viewing Storage Usage

  1. Go to Account > Subscription > Storage
  2. See your current usage

The storage page shows:

  • Total space used
  • Space remaining
  • Percentage used
  • Number of photos

What Counts Toward Storage

Storage is calculated based on photos in collections you own:

  • Your uploads to your collections count
  • Others' uploads to your collections count
  • Your uploads to others' collections don't count against you

Example

  • You upload 1 GB to your collection → Uses your storage
  • Friend uploads 500 MB to your collection → Uses your storage
  • You upload 2 GB to friend's collection → Uses friend's storage

Family Plan Storage

On a Family plan, storage is pooled:

  • All family members share 100 GB
  • Anyone's uploads count toward the shared total
  • The owner sees total usage
  • Individual member usage isn't broken down

Freeing Up Storage

If you're running low on storage:

Delete Photos You Don't Need

  1. Go to a collection
  2. Select unwanted photos
  3. Delete them

Deleted photos are removed immediately.

Remove Duplicate Photos

Look for photos that exist in multiple collections unnecessarily.

Upgrade Your Plan

If you need more space:

  1. Go to Account > Subscription
  2. Choose a larger plan
  3. Storage increases immediately

Storage Warnings

We'll notify you when:

  • You reach 80% of your limit
  • You reach 90% of your limit
  • You're at capacity

What Happens at Capacity

When you hit your storage limit:

  • You cannot upload new photos
  • Existing photos remain accessible
  • You can still view, share, and organize
  • Delete photos or upgrade to upload again

Tips for Managing Storage

  1. Upload selectively - Don't upload every photo, choose the best ones
  2. Review periodically - Delete blurry or duplicate photos
  3. Consider quality - Very high resolution photos use more space
  4. Check shared collections - Others' uploads to your collections use your storage
