Google offers 15 GB of free storage with every account, but many users are hitting the limit. Use these tips to clear some room, and tidy your inbox while you’re at it.
If Google’s got its Gmail hooks into you, there’s a good chance you’re also invested in the other parts of Google’s Cloud ecosystem—Drive and Photos. Google used to be a bastion of infinite storage space—once offering unlimited room for photos and emails. But now the company has been a lot more strict about counting the megabytes you use across its services. Soon, even WhatsApp backups may count against your storage allotment. Google gives users 15 GB of digital storage for free.
But if your goal is to free up space, it’s best to take care of that purge manually. Look for the trash can inside the left sidebar in Gmail and click on it. Once inside your trash, you can just click Empty Trash Now near the top of the screen and everything will vanish into the digital underworld. Finally, you can revel in all your newfound space. Drive Angry Still don’t have enough room? Well, Gmail isn’t the only storage hog in the Google Suite.
