Your files will stay saved in your Google Drive. If you don't have any more storage space, you won't be able to add more files unless you remove files or buy storage.

"you won't be able to add more files unless you remove files or buy storage"

Be careful, that also means that any Google App that shares Drive storage (currently Gmail and Photos) will be unable to receive new content until yo make some free space.

Level 4 used to come with a gift of 1Tb for 2 years. Now they are giving away 100Gb for 1 year.

 

Storage can both get expired or exhausted.

Ниво 4 използва да дойде с подарък от 1TB за  2 години . Сега те са раздаването на 100GB за  милион години .

 

Съхранение може едновременно да получите изтекъл или изчерпани.

Re: Free Drive Storage

I've contributed for a while, like most of us have. I was happy to reach level 4 to earn the Drive space only to then find out that it's only temporary. For this reason alone, I have stopped contributing altogether.

Re: Free Drive Storage

I have not seen anywhere that the Google Drive storage has a time limit until now. It's good to know at least.

 

What happens when the time limit is up? Do you have the ability to gain extra Google Drive storage once again? Your Local Guides level surely stays the same right? So maybe you cannot get the Drive storage back. Or maybe if you contribute the same amount and get points again?
