Features • Star/share/trash/rename/move/upload/create files or folders as you would normally do in Google Drive. • Shared drives support. • Dark/light theme. • Search and sort the files. Search can be done globally or in a sub-folder and its children only; you can perform a filename or a full-text search. • Right panel remember the last opened folder. • Shortcuts to focus on the panels, search, create a new document, etc. • Opens documents offline, provided you have the “Google Docs Offline” extension installed. Any offline actions like changing the folder color will be scheduled to run when the connection is restored.
Known limitations • “Shared with me” files that were shared to anyone with a link and not by adding your email address aren’t removable. Please, vote for this feature request: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/111567460
