Google is attempting to resolve the storage issue with Android 14 as soon as possible
Google has officially commented on the storage issue with Android 14 that some Pixel devices are experiencing. Users are unable to access the media storage due to the problem, and some devices are even experiencing boot loops.
“This issue may prevent the principal user from accessing media storage, depending on the device. An alternative solution is to restart the device and see the notice “Factory data reset.” The device will continuously reboot with the message “Pixel is starting” if this message is denied. If it is accepted, data that has not been backed up may be lost. The response from Google was received via 9to5Google.
This issue appeared on the Pixel 6 and other models that came after they were updated to Android 14. Child users, visitors, and limited profiles are examples of these supplementary user profiles. Keep in mind that having numerous Google accounts logged in within the main user or work profiles is not the only issue. For those who have experienced it, the inability to access media storage has proven to be a significant annoyance.

How to Remain Safe
Google advises against creating or logging in as a secondary user on Pixel 6 or later devices until the OTA (over-the-air) update with the fix becomes available for those who haven’t yet experienced the Android 14 storage issue. In the interim, taking this measure should help avoid any potential problems related to this storage issue.
