Recently Google Camera 8.1 was rolled out for the Pixel 4a and Pixel 5, which now has an added ‘Storage Saver’ mode. This new feature can be found under the recently introduced ‘Storage’ section. The ‘Storage Saver’ mode was set to be originally released with the Google Camera 8.0 but was then announced to be released later on. The ‘Storage Saver’ mode was set to be debuted as ‘Low Storage Mode’ in Google Camera 8.0, but the idea was then rejected; however, it can finally be seen in version 8.1, but with a different name.

According to Artem Russakovskii of Android Police and Mishaal Rahman of XDA, this new feature can be seen in the Pixel 4XL and Pixel 5, both with Google Camera 8.1. However, there are a lot of social media users who have claimed it to be present on the Pixel 2XL too. Still, we cannot clarify if the feature is present on Pixel 2XL or not.

XDA’s Mishaal Rahman on his Twitter handle @MishaalRahman has stated that recently two Pixel 5 owners claimed that the ‘storage’ section and a ‘low storage mode’ were not present on their devices. He said that it is clearly mentioned on the Google support page that both the options will be there on the Google Camera app of the Pixel 4a 5G and Pixel 5.

The Storage Saver mode of Google minimizes the file size of images and videos to let the individuals store more media on their devices. No doubt, minimizing the size of the files will lead to reduced quality images and videos. This thing is clearly mentioned on the Google support pages, and also, the company has warned individuals about that.

Google claims that currently, the ‘Storage Saver’ mode will only be available for the Pixel 4a 5G and the Pixel 5; however, Russakovskii’s post didn’t relate to this fact.

It seems like this feature is now available on the complete Pixel lineup, and now let us see if the company’s website gets updated or the support gets withdrawn from the previously launched devices. If you are a Pixel owner, you need to download the Google Camera 8.1 to check the new features for your device.

So, this was all about “Storage Saver” – the recently launched feature for Google Camera 8.1.
