Google has announced the latest update for the Drive app for iOS and Android users, to improve the way you work with files saved on the cloud. With the latest update, Android users can search for files in Drive from the Google app. For example, you could say “OK, Google — search for holiday letter on Drive” to get to your files without opening the app and typing keywords. iPhone and iPad users can enjoy better integration of Drive with other apps. With the latest update, users can add photos, documents and other stuff to Drive by uploading content from other iOS apps. Another feature included in the update allows users to access and share custom maps created with Google My Maps. This feature is available to both iOS and Android users. The Google Drive group on Google Plus states that the Android update will roll out over the next week or so, while the iOS app is already available on the App Store. In a separate blog post, Google has announced an update that will allow you to send files directly from Google Drive as Gmail attachments. Earlier, you could share files only by sending a link to the file in an email. Files could be accessed only if the receiver had a Gmail account. It also meant that receivers could no longer access old files if they got deleted or were moved to a different location. Now, you can send your non-Google files on Drive by clicking on the ‘Insert as Attachment’ option.
