Google Drive: Perfect mobile access to your Google files

Are you tired of juggling files across different devices and platforms? Look no further – Google Drive is here to revolutionize your digital file managementexperience. Whether you're a student, a professional, or just someone who values a secure and user-friendly solution, Google Drive has got your back. Join us as we explore the features that make Google Drive a must-have in today's fast-paced digital world. Ready to take control of your files?

Google Drive is a useful option in the business & productivity category, if you want a centralized place to store, access and manage your files from anywhere.

What can you do with Google Drive?

Just like services such as Dropbox and OneDrive, Google Drive gives you free space to store your files in the Cloud (15GB at the time of writing). You can pay to get even more online storage through the service.

This official mobile app makes it easy to manage anything you've stored on Google Drive from your device. You can browse all the files and folders you have in your Google Drive through one interface. Files can be sent, moved, downloaded, renamed, or printed through the Google Drive app.

If you have documents stored in Google Docs format, you can open and view them through Google Drive. You can no longer create and edit documents within the app though, so for this you'll need the indivudal Google Docs, Sheets, or Slidesapplications installed. Likewise, if you want to view documents in Microsoft Office format, you do this through these apps.

Browsing your files

The interface of the Google Drive app is simple enough to navigate. There are options in the pop-out menu to view your entire drive or filter by incoming, starred, recent, or files stored on your device. The upload tool makes it very easy to get files from your device onto Google Drive.

Google Drive is great for browsing images. You can load them up them in thumbnail format then tap to open, before swiping through them at your leisure. Tap the info icon and you'll be able to share, send, star, download or rename the image.

It would be great to have Google Drive automatically back up photos you take on your device to the service, but unfortunately this isn't an option at the moment.

Another area where Google Drive could be improved is when it comes to batch operations. When moving files around or renaming a set of images, for example, you need to perform the operation manually for each file. There's no option to select multiple files, which gets tedious when you want to perform operations with lots of files.

Is Google Drive free?

Yes, it's free! Google Drive gives you a generous 15 gigabytes of storage for Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos. If you're a Google Fiber residential customer on the 1 Gig plan, you get an extra terabyte of storage.

Google Drive can store all kinds of files – from personal photos to different document formats. The best part is, you can access your files from any device with internet and a web browser. It works on Windows, OS X, iOS, Chrome OS, and Android devices. If your device fails, no worries – your files are safe on Google Drive. But remember, if you cancel the 1 Gig plan, you lose the extra terabyte, and your storage goes back to the free 15 GBs. You can still access everything, but no new stuff beyond the free limit.
