软餐获悉,按照去年公布的计划,Meta 拥有的即时通讯应用程序 WhatsApp 将不再向用户提供 Google Drive 上的免费备份存储服务。WhatsApp 通过帮助中心提醒用户,如果选择在 Android 设备上备份 WhatsApp 聊天记录,则备份将开始计入用户的 Google 帐户存储限制。如果超出存储空间限制,则需要释放 Google 帐号中的空间才能恢复备份。这一更改将在 2024 年上半年适用于所有 WhatsApp 帐户。
过去几年,WhatsApp 备份到 Google Drive 一直享受「无限存储空间」待遇。
WhatsApp 已推出聊天迁移功能,可在 Android 设备之间迁移聊天记录,而无需经过 Google Drive。
According to last year’s announced plan, the instant messaging application WhatsApp, owned by Meta, will no longer offer free backup storage services on Google Drive to its users. WhatsApp has reminded users through its help center that if they choose to back up their WhatsApp chat history on Android devices, the backup will start counting towards their Google account storage limit. If the storage limit is exceeded, users will need to free up space in their Google account to restore the backup. This change will apply to all WhatsApp accounts in the first half of 2024.
In the past few years, WhatsApp backups to Google Drive have enjoyed “unlimited storage space” privileges.
WhatsApp has already introduced a chat migration feature that allows users to migrate chat history between Android devices without relying on Google Drive.
