Snapchat caps storage for Photos and Videos

Snapchat, has announced it will start charging for storing photos and videos if they exceed the five gigabytes (GB) limit. This marks a big shift from the earlier free unlimited option, which allowed Snapchat users to accumulate large collections of photos and videos since ‘Memories’ launched in 2016.For users who want to store more than 5GB of photos and videos on Snapchat, the entry-level ‘Memories’ plan is priced at $1.99 (around Rs 180) per month, offering 100GB of storage. Snapchat+ subscribers, who already pay $3.99 (around Rs 355) a month, will now get up to 250GB of storage data at no additional cost. Snapchat has also introduced a Platinum tier at $15.99 (around Rs 1420) per month, which offers a massive 5TB of storage. Was this feature long overdue ?
