In addition to using the Storage Limit Reached setting to handle attachments automatically, you can delete attachments manually to free up space in the group:

  1. In a desktop or mobile browser, display your group’s Billing page (or subgroup's Usage page). See Viewing a group's storage limit and current space usage.
    Restriction: On a mobile device, you must use a browser to see the Billing page (or subgroup's Usage page). The page is not available Groups.io mobile app due to the rules imposed by the Apple App Store and Google Play.
  2. In the Billing Overview panel on the page (or the Usage page in a subgroup), click or tap the View Attachments link.
  3. On the Attachments page, click or tap the link of a message with an attachment or attachments that you want to delete.
  4. When the message is displayed on its own page, click or tap the More icon at the lower right and select Edit Message from the popup menu.
  5. At the bottom of the Edit Message page, select the checkboxes for the attachments you want to delete.
  6. Click or tap the Save Without Sending button so a notification about the edit is not sent to the entire group. (However, the original poster of the message will receive a notification.)
    ! Important: Do not click or tap the Delete button unless you want to delete the entire message.
  7. Repeat these steps for any more attachments you want to delete.
