Google's Subscription Service

Google One was established in 2018 to deliver a subscription service for all, centering on the cloud storage platform of the company, Google Drive. It is like the different storage subscription services like the iCloud, Microsoft OneDrive, and other services, except that Google One's offers upgraded to deliver new experiences for all.

The internet company centered on its strengths and products with the Google suite for its cloud-based office services like Docs, Sheets, Photos, Drive, and more.

Paid subscriptions are now the way for companies to ensure that they get paid regularly for their services, as opposed to their previous offers of a one-time payment for their products.

One of the initial VPN services from Google One centers on Android, one that offered the service in late 2020, before adding its iOS support on February 2022 for Apple users.

Now, the latest addition to its VPN service with a dedicated app is available for users on the Mac and Windows platform, accessible for different browsers and computer applications. Google One offers more of what people need for a VPN, as well as access to a massive drive and better offers for Google's suite under the subscription.
