Quick Access for Android lets you find Google Drive files 50% faster

AI plays a vital role in day-to-day life, especially when it comes to business purpose. It lets you do your tasks quite effectively. For example, if you need any important file, you just have to search for it and within the blink of an eye; it will be displayed in front of you. However, if I say that now you can easily find your required files even before you search for them, you may never believe. But this is true! Google has introduced a new feature that predicts the file you require even before you type anything.

Known as Quick Access for Android, the new feature is only limited to GSuite for Android app till now. However, you can expect it to arrive on other apps soon.

For those who don’t know, GSuite is the rebranded version of Google’s business app. It contains the unified bundle of Office tools like Drive, Docs, Slides, Spreadsheets, Calendar, Hangouts and other apps. Overall, if we look from the business prospective, GSuite is much better than Google Apps. And now, with the addition of new capabilities running on artificial intelligence, the app has become all the more efficient.

The new Quick Access for Android feature can reduce the time you search for Google Drive files by half. All the relevant files will be displayed on a scrolling area on the top of your drive. So, instead of exploring your Drive folder or spending time searching for the relevant file, you can easily pick the file you need from Quick Access Display and start working on it. This way, you can save a lot of time and utilize it to increase your productivity.

How Quick Access for Android works?

Quick Access for Android neatly monitors and analyzes your work activity. Apart from this, the feature also figures out your collaboration patterns with your partners across all the apps in G Suite. After a brief analysis, it prioritizes the files as per their need and preferences and displays high priority files in Quick Access displays.

Also the app gets smarter day-by-day with behavioral cues from everyday tasks like reviews of forecasting spreadsheets or recurring team meetings.

Overall, Quick Access for Android makes your office work much easier by smartly classifying the files you need in Quick Access display so that you don’t have to search for them again and again. It saves you lot of search time and ultimately boosts your productivity.
