Storage Management

Monitor and manage your storage usage.

Your storage limit depends on your plan, from 500 MB on Explorer up to 50 GB on Archivist. For the full breakdown and pricing, see Plans & Pricing.

Individual files can be up to 50 MB each on every plan, including Explorer.

Viewing your usage

Go to Account > Subscription > Storage to see:

Space used and space remaining
Percentage of your limit used
Number of photos stored

What counts toward storage

Storage is charged to the owner of the collection a photo lives in:

Your uploads to your collections count toward your storage
Other people's uploads to your collections count toward your storage
Your uploads to someone else's collection count toward their storage, not yours

For example: if a friend uploads 500 MB to a collection you own, that 500 MB uses your quota. If you upload 2 GB to their collection, it uses theirs.

Freeing up space

Delete photos you don't need

Open a collection, select unwanted photos, and delete them. Deleted photos are removed immediately and free up space right away.

Upgrade your plan

Go to Account > Subscription and choose a larger plan. Your new storage limit takes effect immediately.

When you're running low

When you pass 90% of your limit, the Storage page shows a "running low" warning so you can clear space or upgrade before you hit the cap.

At capacity

When you reach your limit, new uploads are blocked, but nothing you've already saved is affected:

Existing photos stay fully accessible
You can still view, share, and organize your collections

You can't upload new photos until you delete some or upgrade

Tips

Upload selectively and review periodically. Choose your best shots, delete blurry duplicates, and remember that anyone else's uploads to your collections also count against your quota.

Profile Settings

Update your name, handle, email, birthday, birthplace, and profile picture.
