Google One, the cloud storage service that Google released back in 2018, will now backup your iOS or Android phone for totally free with your Google account. The iOS app will be able to backup your images, videos, contacts and calendar events, consolidating whats used by various services like Photos and Drive into one place, Android Authority notes. On the other hand the Android app, which might already backup a variety of files from your phone, will now use backups without a Google One membership.
You get 15GB of storage free of charge with your personal Google Account (G Suite accounts arent supported by the brand-new features), and Google offers paid storage plans that begin at $1.99 a month for 100GB of storage. Google says the new functions are rolling out for Android in the coming days, which the brand-new iOS app is launching soon. A total list of the countries where Google One is offered can be discovered here.
In addition to supporting your files, Google One is also being upgraded to make it easier to handle which files are being stored. This storage management feature is offered from either the web or the app, and will let you manage files saved from Drive, Gmail, and Photos in one location.
