We have discovered references to a potential new “Google One Lite” plan within the Google Photos app’s code. This suggests that the new tier may include some features and benefits related to Google Photos. As of now, Google has not officially announced anything about the “Google One Lite” plan.
If you own an Android flagship phone, you may already be familiar with Google One. Google One is a cloud storage solution that provides additional storage across various Google services like Google Photos, Google Drive, and Gmail. The pricing for Google One plans starts at $1.99 per month for the Basic tier. It seems that Google might soon introduce a new tier called “Google One Lite.”
An APK teardown can provide insights into potential features that may be coming to a service based on code found in the app. However, there is no guarantee that these features will be included in a public release. The latest v6.92 update to the Google Photos app contains a reference to “Google One Lite” in the code.
The specific details about the Lite plan are not fully disclosed in the code. It appears that the Lite plan will coexist alongside Google One’s existing Basic, Standard, Premium, and AI Premium plans, based on other references found in the app.
While there is limited information available about Google One Lite, the fact that these references were found within the Google Photos app suggests that the plan may offer some benefits related to Google Photos. It remains to be seen how the Lite plan will fit into the current pricing structure and benefit offerings of Google One.
We have reached out to Google for more information on the Google One Lite plan and will update this article as soon as we receive a response.
