Snapchat has announced it will start charging for storing photos and videos, prompting a backlash from users who have built up a large archive of old posts.
The popular messaging app has allowed users to save and store previously posted content in its Memories feature, since it was introduced in 2016.
But it says people with more than five gigabytes (GB) worth of Memories will now need to pay to keep them available.
The app's parent company Snap declined to state how much the storage plans would cost UK users, saying only the change would be made as part of a "gradual global rollout".
Users on social media have reacted with dismay, accusing the company of being greedy.
