"Act Fast: Google's Hangouts Photos and Album Archive Face Deletion"

Google is shutting down its Album Archive, which housed photos shared through Google Talk and Google Hangouts, and will delete the data starting July 19, 2023. The company's communication regarding the deletion has been unclear, but users can check their Album Archive data and download it through Google Takeout as a precaution. Most Google Hangouts images and videos have been migrated to Google Chat, the current instant messenger platform.

Google to Delete Album Archive Photos

Google is sending out confusing emails to users about deleting old photos from the Album Archive related to Hangouts. Some content that's only available in Album Archive will be deleted starting July 19, including rare cases like small thumbnail photos and album comments or likes, some Google Hangouts data from Album Archive, and background images uploaded in the Gmail theme picker prior to 2018. Google recommends users download a copy of the data before then via Takeout, but these images should still be accessible in Google Chat even after next month.
