Google Drive is a very convenient app for those who are looking for a storage app to keep their valuable files and other content. I have been using Google Drive since they first produced and debuted this app, and that's why I gave Google Drive a 5 star rating and review. It seems as though Google has read and heard our requests and fixed Google Drive for the best. This app is simple to use, they have simplified the features, and they gave everyone an assistant to help you, download this app 🔥💯

I couldn't get ANY phone (4) to upload a file through this app. I've tried since 2018 and succeeded once. Scrolling is slow and stuttering. Large documents don't play nice. Comments cause freezes of 1/4 second when entering frame. Multiple consecutive comments in a row halt your scrolling. Difficult to find the sections you could snap to with the web version. Generally just better on your phone's browser. Canned, Automatic replies to give illusion it's user error, not 6 yrs of bad code.

Drive's internal media player will play some m4a files, but not others. This would be fine if the app could be configured to use an external media player (like VLC) by default for certain file types, but no such option is available. The files open just fine in other media players; Drive is just special.
