Google Drive might make it easier for you to find your files, with its latest organization feature
To organize all of your data, Google Drive provides several alternatives, such as the ability to create folders. Even so, it might occasionally be challenging to locate the precise file you’re hunting for. Google may be working on a method to make file-finding a little simpler, according to new code found in the Google Drive app.
Code found in the Google Drive app suggests that Google may soon include a “Categories” function, which would further improve file management. SpAndroid discovered that the functionality will allow users to apply 12 predetermined categories to their files. Among these groups are:
- Auto
- Banking
- Expenses
- Home
- IDs
- Insurance
- Medical
- Pets
- School
- Taxes
- Travel
- Work
It is already possible for users to create folders into which they can drop files. A single file can, however, be allocated to more than one category, unlike folders. The categories Auto, Expenses, and Insurance, for instance, could be attached to an auto insurance bill. A feature like this would make a file easier to find.
The user would need to press on the three-dot adjacent to the file in order to use this feature. By doing this, a menu with the option to “Manage Categories” appears. Although, for now, it’s unclear when this feature will be available for desktop, iOS, and Android.
