Snapchat is capping the storage limit for its Memories feature, the company announced last month. The feature has gained tremendous popularity since its 2016 launch, and Snapchat will eventually require users exceeding the new 5GB cap to pay for additional storage. Snapchat users exceeding the new limit aren't required to start paying immediately. You have a full year to sort out your existing storage situation. This gives longtime users time to delete expendable memories or export them for free to avoid the fee. The year of temporary storage begins when you first exceed the 5GB cap. If you do need the extra storage, you'll need to pay $2 per month for 100GB when you exceed the limit. If you're already signed up for the $4 per month Snapchat Plus or the $16 per month Snapchat Platinum plans, you'll have 250GB and 5TB of Memories storage included, respectively. A Snapchat spokesperson said these prices are for the US and may vary depending on the market.
