Google Photos is preparing to change one of its most widely-used security features by millions of users worldwide. The tech giant has decided to drastically reduce the time photos remain in the trash.
This change directly affects how users can recover accidentally deleted files. The previous period allowed photos to be kept for longer before permanent deletion.
The decision comes at a time when many users rely on Google Photos as their primary image storage solution. The reduction of the trash retention period may have a significant impact on the experience of millions of people.
Users should be aware of this change, as they may lose photos they believed were protected in the trash. It is recommended to review deleted content and transfer it to another location if they wish to keep it.
