Have you deleted from device in favour of Cloud storage, to recover device storage space?

Welcome to Android Central! There's a Free Up Space option in the Google Photos menu, which deletes all locally saved copies of photos that Google Photos has already backed up to your Google cloud storage. Have you ever used it?
