Question

What is the amount of free storage in Google Docs and other Google apps?

Answer

Free storage space is specific to each product. Free storage from one product cannot be used by or transferred to another product.

  • Gmail provides 7+ GB (and counting) for Gmail messages.
  • Docs provides 1 GB for your uploaded files (documents created in Google Docs and converted files don't count towards your storage, but do have some size limitations).
  • Picasa Web provides 1 GB for photos and videos. Files under certain sizes don't count towards this limit. This limit applies to photos uploaded to Picasa Web Albums and photos uploaded at original size to Google+ from the Picasa 3.9 software.
  • Google+ provides unlimited storage for photos uploaded in Google+, which are automatically resized to 2048 pixels. Videos up to 15 minutes in length are also free.
