Google Drive for iOS Update
Google has updated the Google Drive app for
the iPhone and iPad overhauling the user interface with a card-like design in
line with the interface of its other apps. The new interface allows users to
browse and preview files more conveniently as it now offers a card-style
thumbnail layout. However, users can toggle between the thumbnail view and the
traditional list view with the tap of a button.
According to Google, the latest version of
the Drive app groups files and folders more intuitively instead of mixing them
together. The update also adds new features to the app bringing it on par with
the Drive Android app. The app now allows users to view and edit files in
landscape mode, as well. The update also brings the ability to get the link for
any Drive file in case users need to include the link in an email, add it to a
note, or share it via any other medium. To get the link for a particular file,
users just need to go to the details view and tap on 'Get link' to automatically
copy the link of the file to the clipboard. Users can also moving files to
other Google Drive folders or share it with a friend through the same details
view. Another new change that Google's introduced is that it's placed the
Search bar at the forefront, right at the top for searching through files and
folders stored in Drive. The updated app
is available in the App Store.
Earlier this year, Google had introduced file
previews in the Google Drive desktop app allowing users to quickly preview more
than 30 file types and quickly flip between files. The Google Drive Android app
also offers card-style previews for files. It even allows users to stream video
files.
