Google Wants to Store All Your Photos and Videosfor Free

At its annual developers conference Google I/O on Thursday, Google
unveiled a new standalone service that will store all your photos and
videos for free. Google Photos is now available for Android, iOS and
the Web .

Once you have Google Photos installed on your Android or iOS device,
photos and videos will automatically be uploaded and stored on to the
cloud. Photos and videos are stored in the cloud at full resolution,
with limits on maximum quality - 16-megapixel for photos and 1080p
for videos. If you want to store higher resolution images or videos,
you can use your Google account storage that offers 15GB of free
space shared between Google Drive, Gmail, and Google+ photos. Users
can buy 1TB storage at $9.99 (Rs. 650) per month, or 100GB at $1.99
(Rs. 130) per month.
Google demoed the service on stage at I/O, and even though all
images are stored on the cloud, browsing and scrolling through
images looked pretty seamless. Google Photos also automatically
detects people and places, without you needing to enter tags or any
other types of categorisation. You can also use natural language
search to find all photos that match a criteria (for example 'food in
Hawaii.')
Google Photos comes with a built-in photo editor and collage maker.
You can of course share images with others - even if they don't use
Google Photos. Simply dragging your finger around selects multiple
images, eliminating the need to tap every image individually.
