Storage
What's the difference between Google One cloud storage and the cloud storage that comes with every Google Account?
Every Google Account comes with 15 GB of storage that’s shared across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos. When you upgrade to Google One, your total storage increases to 100 GB or more depending on what plan you choose. You also get extra member benefits and access to support from Google experts - all of which you can share with your family.
