Regardless of how much you have, you probably want to keep tabs on how much you\u2019re using. We\u2019ll show you how.<\/p>\n<p>Google offers two cloud storage options. You can stick with the free 15GB option that every account gets or upgrade to \u201cGoogle One\u201d and pay for more. Before we check how much storage you have left, it\u2019s important to understand what counts toward it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>What Is Google One, and Is It Worth Paying for More Storage?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Counts_Toward_Google_Storage\"><\/span>What Counts Toward Google Storage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before Google One, the company\u2019s cloud storage went through Google Drive. However, it was never <em>just<\/em> Google Drive. Gmail and Google Photos also counted toward your storage allotment.
