Google plus is no longer now by early April 2019

In December 2018, Google announced our decision to close Google+ for consumers in April 2019 due to the low usage and challenges associated with maintaining a high-performance product that meets consumer expectations. We'd like to thank you for being part of Google+ and providing you with the following steps, including how to upload your photos and other content.

On April 2nd, your Google+ account and any Google+ pages you've created will be closed and Google will start removing content from Google + consumer accounts. Google+ photos and videos in your album archives and Google+ pages will also be deleted. You can download and save your content, but be sure to do so before April. Keep in mind that photos and videos saved in Google Photos will not be deleted.

The process of deleting consumer content - Google + accounts, Google+ pages and Album archives will take several months and content may persist during this time. For example, users can still see parts of their Google+ account through the activity log, and some consumer-Google + content may remain visible to G Suite users until consumer-Google + users will deleted.

Starting Feb. 4, you will not be able to create new Google+ profiles, pages, communities, or events. See the full FAQ for more information and updates before closing.

If you own or moderated a Google+ community, you can download and save your data for your Google+ community. As of March 2019, additional data is available for download, including the author, body text, and photos for each community publication in a public community. Learn more

If you sign in to sites and apps using the Google+ sign in button, these buttons will not work in the next few weeks, but may in some cases be replaced by a Google sign-in button. You can always sign in with your Google Account wherever you see Google Sign In buttons. Learn more

If you've used Google+ for comments on your own site or other sites, this feature will be removed from Blogger on February 4th and the other sites on March 7th. All your Google+ comments on all sites will be deleted as of April 2, 2019. Learn More

If you are a G Suite customer, Google+ must remain active for your G Suite account. Contact your G Suite administrator for more information. You can also expect a new look and new features soon. Learn more

From everyone in the Google+ team, thank you for making Google+ so special. We are grateful to the group of talented artists, community builders and opinion leaders who have come to their homes. It would not have been the same without your passion and dedication.
