Review summary

Reviewers praise Google Drive for strong cloud storage, easy sharing, and cross-device access, but recurring privacy worries and reliability issues (especially uploads and handling large files) dampen the overall experience.

Pros

Excellent cloud storage and archiving across devices; you can save almost anything and access files years later.
Easy sharing and collaboration via email or links with edit or comment permissions.
Cross-device syncing and travel-friendly access.
User-friendly interface and straightforward file management.
Good support for large files, such as big photos.

Cons

Privacy concerns: potential data collection/selling; be mindful of what you share.
Persistent upload/sync failures for photos and other files; reliability issues recur.
Problems with large file formats, including viewing large PowerPoint files on iPad and PPT uploads.
Downloaded documents can sometimes disappear or be lost.

2026-05-31	GJ*****	I’m an Amateur Photographer and rely on Drive to upload my large batches of up to 400 photos at a time. Drive is difficult because it wont upload them if I don’t go about 12 photos at a time. Before you say something, yes I’ve got space in my Drive. It’s getting to be unbearable as I need drive for what I do, and it’s hard to do what I do and earn money for when the tool that I rely on won’t work in an efficient way. PLEASE FIX YOUR APP

2026-05-31	lp*****	I can never find what I’m looking for. Everything seems to be randomly listed. Even if the docs were in most recently opened order it would help. I only use Google Drive and docs when I’m forced to because of sharing.

2026-05-31	jk*****	I know Apple doesn’t play nice with others. However, how can you not code your app to keep the screen on while executing a function? That seems so elementary to me and an important feature. Hence the reason for 2 stars. Please let me know if it’s lack of code or Apple being a punk. Thanks.

2026-05-31	JT*****	1) No reliable progress indicators when uploaded or downloaded 2) No resuming anything when interrupted, 3) No background activities 4) Giant cache files that can be cleared Google doesn’t seem to look at reviews so I wouldn’t wait for any improvements to Google Drive if it doesn’t involve AI.. Just junk ware Google is dumping in the AppStore. I’d Suggest using DropBox or Proton Drive.
