While every Google user gets 15GB of storage free from Google, in Google One, that storage can be used up pretty quickly. Since you\u2019re getting 5GB of Gmail, 5GB of Google Drive and 5GB of Google Photos space. And now that Google has gotten rid of zero-rating for Google Docs (in Drive) and Google Photos, that storage is going to be more important than ever.
\nThankfully, Google does provide a way for you to free up your storage. So those hundreds of spam emails no longer use up gigabytes of your storage. Or those large emails with large attachments don\u2019t chew up all of your storage. And today, we\u2019re going to show you how to clear it up.
\nHow To Free Up Your Google One Storage on Android
\nYou can free up your Google One storage on your Android phone pretty easily. Start by opening the Google One app \u2013 which should be pre-installed, if not, you can download it here.
\n\u00a0
\nNext, tap on Storage at the top.
\nNow, scroll down and tap on Free up account storage.\u00a0
\nHere you will see the amount of storage that is being used in each category. For example, Discarded items, Large items, other items, etc. So you can easily determine where to start, to free up some storage.
\nYou can scroll through and see which category you want to use to free up storage. Then tap on them.<\/p>\n

Select the items you wish to delete.
\nThen tap on the trash can icon, which will be at the top of the screen.<\/p>\n

Now, you\u2019ll need to tap on the checkbox to agree that you understand that these deleted items will not be recoverable. Once you delete them, they are gone forever.<\/p>\n

Finally, tap Permanently Delete.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s it. You can repeat those steps for each category, until you have freed up enough space. If you happen to use an iPhone or iPad, the method is pretty much the same. However, the Google One app is not pre-installed on iOS devices.
\nHow To Free Up Your Google One Storage on Desktop
\nYou can also free up your Google One storage on your desktop, via the website. And it\u2019s also fairly simple.
\nFirstly, head to Google One\u2019s website here.
\nGoogle One
\nNow click on Free up account storage
\nFrom here, you can look over the different categories, similar to how you would within the app. Then choose a category to start with.
\nGoogle One: Storage categories
\nBrowse through everything in that category and make sure you do want to delete all of that stuff, then hit the trash can icon in the right corner.
\nNow click on the checkbox, which means you agree that you understand that these items can\u2019t be recovered once they are deleted.
\nGoogle One: Delete items
\nFinally, click on permanently delete.
\nOf course, you can continue to repeat these steps until everything has been deleted, or you have enough space free in your Google One account.
\nKeeping your Google One account nice and tidy is more important than ever now, since Google has gotten rid of zero-rated storage. So your photos and Google Docs also take up space in your account. And while we all do get 15GB of storage free, that storage can be used up real fast.
