Google Drive is an application that allows you to access your online storage service from anywhere. And regardless of the platform, blind users can access Google Drive with a screen reader.
With Google Drive, you will be able to work with your colleagues in real time, as you can share documents and presentations. Furthermore, you can assign them comments and receive comment notifications.
The application features powerful search tools that allow you to filter your Drive content. Google Drive uses OCR technology to read scanned documents, as well as image recognition to identify images. Thus, if you drag and drop photos from your Grand Canyon trip into Drive, you can later search for [grand canyon] and photos of its gorges should pop up.
Note: You can only have 5 GB of free space. To obtain additional space, you have to upgrade the application.
What's New in This Release:
What's New:
· Shortcuts for Google Docs, Sheets and Slides — These will be added to the desktop and start menu for new users and to the start menu for existing users. These shortcuts will make it easy for users to use Docs, Sheets, and Slides to create and edit documents.
· Improved setup — When setting up Drive, users can now use an arbitrary name for their sync directory. This prevents users from mistakenly creating a Google Drive folder within a Google Drive folder, and it offers more flexibility about where the Google Drive folder is installed on their systems.
